why doesnt israel give palestiniens citizenship...?

Question

why cant israel give palestiniens citizenship?? they live there!!1 why cant they have the same right? and have the right to vote??? arent they humans like all of us?? why do they keep them in a prison ( closed borders)???

maybe if they gave them their rights, islamic extremist would not blow themselves up anymore...

poeple gotta chilll....jews and muslims have to understand that no one is superior to the other, and that the earth is no ones land...the earth is all ours, equally, and we should learn to share it....

what do you think??

Answer 1

Please get your basic facts straight before posting something else.

ALL Muslims who did not desert Israel in 1948, as told to by the neighbouring Arab countries, ARE Israeli citizens. 20 per cent of Israelis are not Jewish - and they have the exact same rights as the jewish people living in Israel. For example, there are Muslims sitting in the Israeli parliament (knesset)

In fact, the Muslims in Israel have more rights than most people in any of the surrounding Muslim nations.

No Jew or Israeli believes they are 'superior'. They just wish to be treated as EQUALS. Is that too much to ask?

Perhaps if the Palestinians rejected terrorism, it would be a help...

Also, and this is vital: BEFORE Israel was established in 1948, the Muslim world was already calling for the deaths of jews. During world war two, the Arab leaders allied themselves with Hitler; they were in fact his 'guests of honour' and they publicly stated they desired to carry out the 'final solution' (extermination of all jews) in the Middle East - just as Hitler was busy doing in Europe.

I assume you will also be posting a question showing concern for all the Jews kicked out of Muslim countries?

Answer 2

Uh, those non-Jews who are legal citizens of Israel are citizens, and do vote. Didn't you know that? And, unlike in the rest of the Arabian peninsula, people of all religions are free to practice their religion.

And why don't you ask about reparations for the Jews who were kicked out of the Arab counties they'd lived in for centuries.

And the Muslim extremists have been attacking and murdering Jews for far longer than Israel has existed, so that isn't the reason.

I think you should be a lot more skeptical of the Muslim claims against Israel, that's what I think.

Answer 3

Palestinans do not want citizenship in Isreal, they want their own country. Isreal has negotiated land boundaries with them time and time again and it never seems to be enough. In fact, when Bill Clinton negotatied with Arafat some years ago, Arafat was offered EVERYTHING he asked for if only Paletine would agree to a peace treaty and issue a statement saying Isreal had the right to EXIST. He refused. What does that tell you about the real goals of the state of Palestine?

Answer 4

Did you know that 20% of Israel's population are Arabs - citizens of Israel some of whom serve in the IDF (Israeli Defense Force)? The Palestinians are Arabic and yet the Arab countries treat them like dogs as a means of having leverage with Israel. These are the same Arabs that told the Palestinians to leave Israel in 1967 so that they could kill all the Israeli's and give them their land. They left and they are not welcome back. Those who stayed are now citizens. Simple.

Answer 5

Sounds great, but as long as the West, specifically the US, gives unconditional support and favoritism to Israel (at the expense of the Arabs), then there is no reason for Israel to comply with demands or truly seek peace.

Please remember, in the game of power and control, it is much more effective to have a defined "enemy" with which to rally support. Thus, I suspect politicians on both sides have no real interest in living peacefully, otherwise, it would erode into their power base.

Answer 6

Maybe because most palestiniens are terrorists?
