Why don't the West procure a sizable piece of land in America or Canada for a Jewish homeland and the state of Israel so that both Israel and Arabs may live in peace and prosper. In the long run the security and prosperity would pay for that piece of land. This is done with the guarantee from the Arabs that Jews are free to pay pilgrimage to their holy ancestral land.

to Wayne: Its not a question of who leaving who alone. Its a conflict over areas that long ago belonged to God.

to AmericanDreamer: Thank you. I was thinking of a full sovereign state and not just reservation. The Jews are smart and hardworking people, their progress and prosperity will benefit every person on this planet.

The Jews have a right to the Holy Land, they would never leave it even if we offered them double the land size. There has never and will never be true peace in the east unless one side is eradicated. I don't mean I want that, it's just the only way you will see peace over there.

I don't think that would work very well.
Moving is a big pain in the rear and there are a lot of people living in Israel who don't really see a reason to go. After all, most people who live in Israel were born there, and some have families that have been there for generations. Like you do to your country, they feel like they have some tie to the nation and the land.
Kee, it's a nice thought, but there is a big difference between a "homeland" and a "reservation".

Here's what your proposal boils down to.
You want to mass deport every single Jew that is in Israel to some other location merely because they are Jewish.
Does that not smack of racism?
And if you contend that it is not racist, then try this on for size.
How about mass deporting every Arab in Israel (including the West Bank and Gaza) to another country, e.g. Jordan? I don't personally propose such an extreme measure and I am against it, however there are people out there who have said just that. They have also been called racists for it as well.
Take it as you will.

The West easily has the military power to end the Arab-Israeli conflict decisively, but everyone resents an enforced peace. Also, who would you plan to displace for this Jewish homeland in America or Canada?
Until the Arabs and Israelis elect to resolve their differences themselves with the West as mediators and not arbitrators, you will not see an end to conflict.

I wouldn't trust the Arabs to keep their deal. Also, there are certain Jewish commandments that can only be done in Israel. Let's try it the other way- kick the Arabs out. And instead of America, lets move them to Saudi Arabia. Or Jordan. Or any other country in that area.

people dont seem to get it.
Jews dont care about a national homeland. They have lived without one for over 2,000 years and were better for it.
what we want is the freedom to live in the land of Israel. If that means by creating a state so that we may live their so be it.
if you want to solve this problem make Israel the 51st state of the United States and be done with it.

Why doesn't the US give East Timor $6 billion a year like we do Israel? They're also a democracy in the Middle East

Because Israel is Israel, not Kansas or Saskatchewan.
Why can't Arabs leave Israel alone?

Not a great idea. It isn't about Jews owning just any piece of land, it is about THAT particular land.
