ISRAEL DELUSIONAL COEXISTENCE WITH THE ARABS HAS FAILED MISERABLY

From the outset, Israel unwisely tried to include Arabs in Israeli life.

To this day, they continue to allow Arabs Palestinians within the borders, in a
misguided belief that co-existence is possible.

The time is far past for Israel to act more wisely, exiling Arabs who will not
sign on to a statement that Israel has a right to exist, and that they have a
right to the land of Israel itself as allocated under post WWI international
law and treaties, which assigned Palestine for the Jewish National Home.

You don't take a scorpion or poisonous snake in an embrace, and then express
surprise that you were stung or bitten.

In addition, Israel has to take complete control of the Temple Mount area and Judea and Samaria, shooting any rock throwers, and ejecting any Muslims who abuse non-Muslims there and anywhere else, either physically or verbally.

Israel has to respond to any threat, including rockets launched at Israel with expedited and uncompromising response.

Until the Israelis act wisely and forcefully, Israel will continue to be vulnerable to attacks from within.
It's not acceptable or reasonable, and the reality of Arab/Muslim hatred must
be acknowledged and acted upon expeditiously.

There are severe and extreme consequences to the terrorist who plan to attack and or attacks to the terrorist his family and associates.
Anyone who is assisting or withholding information about the terrorist proposed actions or action should be considered as an accomplice‎.
Let them know that terror will not be tolerated.

Israel - It is your duty and obligation, you
must defend your family and citizens against Hamas rockets without constraints
or limitations, no-holds-barred,
anything less is a dereliction of duty. This applies also to any acts of terror
and violence by anyone. No response is strong enough. Anybody who thinks
otherwise is committing desertion of family and friends to the atrocities of
evil and terror.

It is up to Israel
to defend its people. In the past, history has shown the world stood idle while
Jewish people, men, women and children were slaughtered.

Israel - In order to consider a new negotiations with the Arab-Palestinians
First thing, let us see the Arab Palestinians stop teaching their children and the masses to commit terror and violence. Stop rewarding terrorists, stop funding terrorists families, stop naming streets after terrorists. Declare and practice that terror and violence is unacceptable. We need to see a change in attitude towards terror and a true and honest pursuit of peace and coexistence.
You can accomplish more with honey than with vinegar.
If that is not possible than there will never be peace.
A true peace will be a blessing and an economic prosperity to all concerned.

To truly understand the status of this territory in Greater Israel we
have to first differentiate between the personal and the national.

Of course there is land privately owned by Arab-Palestinians in Judea and Samaria, what many call the “West Bank” in seeming deference to the Jordanian
occupation, which invented the term as juxtaposition to its eastern bank. These
areas, like privately owned territory anywhere in the world, cannot be touched
unless there is very pressing reason for a government or sovereign power to do
so. These areas, according to Ottoman and British records, constitute no more
than a few percent of the total area, meaning the vast majority is not privately owned.

However, to contend that these territories are “Arab-Palestinian” on a national level is
problematic. To claim an area belongs to a particular nation requires the
territory to have belonged to that people, where they held some sort of sovereignty that was broadly recognized.

All of these criteria have been met historically by the Jewish people, and none by the Arab-Palestinians.

In fact, the Jewish people were provided with national rights in these territories not just
by dint of history and past sovereignty, but also by residual legal rights
contained in the San Remo Treaty of 1920 confirmed by the 1920 Treaty of Sevres
and Lausanne adopted by the League of Nations as the Mandate for Palestine,
which were never canceled and are preserved by the UN Charter, under Article 80
– the famous “Palestine Clause,” that was drafted, in part, to guarantee
continuity with respect to Jewish rights from the League of Nations.

For the past over 2,400 years, since the destruction of Jewish sovereignty and expulsion of most
of its indigenous people, it remained an occupied and colonized outpost in the
territory of many global and regional empires.

The Ottomans were the most recent to officially apportion the territory, in what they referred to
as Ottoman Syria, which today incorporates modern-day Israel, Syria, Jordan and
stretching into Iraq. Before The Ottoman Land Code of 1858, land had largely
been owned or passed on by word of mouth, custom or tradition. Under the
Ottomans of the 19th century, land was apportioned into three main categories:
Mulk, Miri and Mawat.

Mulk was the only territory that was privately owned in the common sense of the term, and as
stated before, was only a minimal part of the whole territory, much of it owned
by Jews, who were given the right to own land under reforms.

Miri was land owned by the sovereign, and individuals could purchase a deed to cultivate this
land and pay a tithe to the government. Ownership could be transferred only
with the approval of the state. Miri rights could be transferred to heirs, and
the land could be sub-let to tenants. In other words, a similar arrangement to
a tenant in an apartment or house as having rights in the property, but not to the property.

Finally, Mawat was state or unclaimed land, not owned by private individuals nor largely
cultivated. These areas made up almost two-thirds of all territory.

The area recently declared “State Land” by the Israeli government, a process
which has been under an intensive ongoing investigation for many years, is
Mawat land. In other words, it has no private status and is not privately owned.

Many claims to the territory suddenly arose during the course of the investigation, but all were
proven to be unfounded on the basis of land laws.

Interestingly, it should be clearly understood by those who deem Judea and Samaria “occupied
territory” that according to international law the occupying power must use the
pre-existing land laws as a basis for claims, exactly as Israel has done in
this case, even though Israel’s official position is that it does not see
itself de jure as an occupying power in the legal sense of the term. It is only a liberator of its ancestral land.

None of these facts are even alluded to in the many reports surrounding the government’s
actions in settlement and housing. This is deeply unjust and a semblance of the
relevant background, history and facts would provide the necessary context for
what has been converted into an international incident where none should exist.

Many nations and people are questioning Israel’s control of its own liberated territory.
No one is mentioning that the Arab countries had persecuted and ejected about a
million Jewish families and their children (who lived there for over 2,400
years) from their countries, confiscated their assets, businesses, homes and
Real estate property. Over 670,00 Jewish families and their children of these
expelled Jewish families and their children were resettled in Greater Israel.
The Land the Arab countries confiscated from the Jewish people 120,440 sq. km.
or 75,000 sq. miles, which is over 5-6 times the size of Israel, and its value today is the trillions of dollars.
