One person, one vote, with a right for any Arab who fled due to instability to return to their homeland.

How Democratic is it for the Arabs who live under Israeli occupation, who don't have a voice in the government that owns their land, bear?

I think it would be a good change urthic, the conflict doesn't go back centuries, only 60 to 100 years. Before the Zionist movement and the creation of Israel, what few Jews were in the area got along fine with Muslims.

Oh yeah...they would just LOVE that...just like they liked the UN giving the land to Israel to begin with. That would go over really well. What was that prophecy about war in the Middle East? Yup, that may do it!

You are dreaming. If the Republicans and Democrats here can't get along, why should the Jews and Arabs be any different.

Israel is already democratic.
Not only do Israeli Arabs have a voice in the government, but some of them hold offices too.
Perhaps while you're at it, you could arrange for all the Irish-Americans whose ancestors fled the potato famine to return and claim the land they left behind in Ireland? Or would that be unreasonable...

Anti-Semitic, let me let you in on a little secret. Israel belongs to the Lord God Almighty, and HE has declared over the last several thousand years, that no Arab will ever take it over. If you want to try to fight against God, go ahead and try, but you WILL NOT WIN. He also has declared that anyone who does not support Israel is HIS ENEMY....what does that make you?
The Arabs already have a homeland, and it is not Israel. Israel is the homeland of the Jews, and will be forever. Nothing and nobody will ever change that, because it is God's will. Does any man want to stand up against God? Go ahead and try.

Israel will never agree to that, because their religious state would cease to exist in the elections.
The Arabs outnumber Israelis in the area.

Right of return has always been one of the major obstacles to resolution. What they mean by that is the right to go back and get the land they gave up 60 years ago. There are hundreds of thousands of Israelis living there now who wouldn't give it up and shouldn't have to.

Why force your political practices on countries that have had their own form of government for decades or centuries?
After your addition to the post:
How democratic is to cram (force) your political practices......................................................
Why do people feel they can change these people. The majority of conflict within the Arab Nations is a religious one. One thats been going on for centuries.
OK century! It's really working in Iraq I see

I don't think I even need to get into the hundred or so reasons why this would be a BAD idea...
