Judenrein in the Middle East

There were two contrasting news reports in the last couple of weeks that perfectly clarify the Arab-Israeli conflict. The first was a comment by Pal president Mahmoud Abas on 12/24 when he said that in a future Pal state there would not be any Israeli presence. This includes any IDF presence but more importantly any presence of Jewish settlers. Thus Jews are not allowed to live in a Pal state, in effect he wants it to be Judenrein.

The second news story was a poll conducted amongst 1000 East Jerusalem Arabs who live within Israel to determine what they would do if a Pal state was created. Of the 1000 polled 54% said if their neighborhood remained in Israel's hands they would not move to the Pal state and would prefer to stay in Israel. If their neighborhood became part of the Pal state 40% said they would try to move into Israel and only 37% said they would want to stay in Pal state.

Arabs living under the Israeli government have some of the highest living standards of any Arabs in the entire Middle East. They enjoy voting rights, participation in government, superior health care, better job availability and educational opportunities for their children. Granted it is not perfect and there is disparity between Jews and Arabs but the truth is in the poll data as the Pals know that they are better off under an Israeli flag than an Arab one. This demonstrates the Israelis firm belief in religious tolerance and human rights.

On the other hand, why can't Jews live under a Pal government? If Jews want to live in Hebron, the site where the Patriarchs and Matriarchs were buried, they should be able to despite the presence of an Arab government. I do not think most Jews would choose to be residents of Arab controlled lands seeing how the citizens of such countries are treated by their governments. But the absolute requirement of Abas to devoid their land of Jews says a lot about their religious intolerance, lack of compassion, and disbelief in human rights.

So the logical conclusion of these two news stories is a situation where Arabs can only tolerate living amongst themselves to the exclusion of any non-Arabs (really non-Muslims as they persecute christian Arabs) while in Israel the Jews treat all their citizens fairly regardless of race or religion. I can understand why the Arabs are so intolerant since they are educated from birth to hate Jews, Christians, Hindus, etc. They even hate other Muslims of a different sect. But why can't other countries (eg. European nations) of the world see this disparity? Why do they continuously portray Israel as the evil oppressor while the pals are the persecuted ones? The evidence to the contrary is so clear and blatantly obvious. The only answer that can make any sense of this irrational, blinded, nonsensical viewpoint is the ubiquitous hatred of the Jew.

While everyone is falling over themselves trying to grant the pals their own judenrein state in order to achieve peace the truth is the average pal would rather live in Israel.
