[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There will never be peace until greater Israel is formed and a sufficient number of Palestinians are killed or leave from within these territories. Anyone who thinks otherwise doesn't understand the genocidal and evil nature of these ZioNazis. [/quote]

You mean there will never be peace as long as Palestinians resort to endless terror to try to advance their genocidal aims?  At least formal incorporation of the West Bank into Israel would give the residents a chance for a decent life in a modern, successful civil pluralistic society, as opposed to what the Palestinians have done for themselves in the decades since the end of the British Mandate.[/quote]

Are Palestinians in the West Bank being offered citizenship?[/quote]

Too early to know.  Arabs who stayed in what became Israel in 1948 obtained Israeli citizenship.  [/quote]

That's not entirely true.  It's complicated like everything else involving the entire conflict.[/quote]

Arab Israelis as a group still are second class citizens facing 50+ discriminatory laws as well underfunded infrastructure and towns for starters [/quote]

And why is that?  Might it have something to do with the extensive history of Arab animosity, hostility, and terrorism directed at Jews?  [/quote]

Now you're claiming legitimate apartheid?!?!?[/quote]

Justified prejudice against people who are the source of terrorists and terrorism is hardly apartheid.  Histrionics don't make facts change.  To the extent that Arab citizens in Israel face a degree of social prejudice, it's minor, not institutionalized, and reversible if a culture of hatred for Jews and support for terror is reversed.  Arabs citizens in Israel can have passports, and can vote.  They may serve in the military and they receive government-funded education and social services.  They are, however, culturally and religiously distinct from Jewish citizens; the extent to which those considerations account for their generally differing socio-economic status is unclear.  What is clear is that Arab animosity and historic periodic violence towards Jews does account substantially for whatever social discrimination does exist.[/quote]
