Thirdly, this plan this plan says nothing about the existing refugees. There will be no solution to the conflict without taking these people into account, even if we reject their so-called `right` to return to Israel.
Finally, whilst its not racist to offer people money if they want to leave, it is racist to attach unfair and dicriminatory consequences to a refusal. Elon`s plan does this because it says you are free to stay behind- but you will have no politial rights in the state which contols the land on which you were born and only because you are an Arab.
Elon`s plan has a superficial appeal to zionists because it holds out the illusion of regainig all of our land but ultimately its as hare-brained a scheme as anything Palestinian maximalists come out wth. Elon`s idea competes with Hamas for the the wooden spoon of solutions to the Palestinian-Israeli conflict. It`s stinks of racism and is totally unworkable. That makes two very good reasons to reject it. |
