Arabs and Jews—Only Separation

9

bvituperation or blind refusal to listen, but rather patience to read bthese pages and honesty in evaluating them. Finally, let each band every Jew ask himself or herself this question: Am I pre- bpared—given peace and an Arab population growth that will bmake the Arab minority a majority—to allow that majority— bdemocratically—to change the name of the state to “Palestine”; bto abolish the Law of Return, which gives every Jew automatic bentry and citizenship (and which was the key in Zionist leaders’ bminds to keeping a Jewish majority); and to end—peacefully band democratically—the Jewish state?

bThe problem is that no Jewish leader in Israel or the Exile bhas the courage to ask the question or to teach it to the Jewish bpeople. We avoid it even as we raise our money for the “Jewish” bstate, make our vacation plans for three weeks in the “Jewish” bstate, and sing the “Hatikva” at bar mitzvahs. The problem is bthat no one thinks about the question. The problem is that so few bthink. Dear Jew, do think. It may save the lives of millions. Even byour own.
