Nah, go further ;-) I've felt for a long time, when in a sick humor mood, that the "final solution" to the Israeli ethno-religious nationalist vs. Palestinian nationalist death dance slaughter, is for all the Israeli Semite anti-Arab racists to be paired up, imprisoned w/ a fellow Arab Semite anti-Jewish racist in small cells in Gaza and Jerusalem. Since the twinned, brothers under the skin are united by a similiar set of psychological/character structures marked by all the standard attributes of a fascistoid mentality, soon enough the Arab and the Jewish racist will be strangling each other to death, leaving the region and the rest of the world freer of their atavistic , competing blood and soil, religious fanaticisms.

Final solution by David Thomas of Pere Ubu. (Grew up like patti smith, a Jehovah's Witness. Unlike her, he still is a JW.)
The girls won't touch me cause I got a misdirection, and livin at night isn't helpin my complexion The signs all say it's a social infection A little bit of fun's never been an insurrection
Mom threw me out til I get some pants that fit She just don't approve of my strange kind of wit I get so excited I always gotta lose it, then they pack me off & make me take the cure But I don't need a cure, don't need a cure don't need a cure, need a final solution
Buy me a ticket to a sonic reduction Guitars gonna sound like a nuclear destruction It seems I'm the victim of natural selection, or maybe just another slide in another direction I don't need a cure, don't need a cure don't need a cure, need a final solution
Solution!
