The other one-state solution, the Hamas solution

Democracy in any Muslim state with a strong Islamist, anti-Zionist movement leads to strongly anti-Semitic rule by Islamic religious law.

Muslims within Israel, on the West Bank, and in the Gaza Strip have an exceptionally strong and violently anti-Semitic Islamist presence dominated by Hamas.

Those same Muslims would become voters with the same political and civil rights as anyone else in the democratic version of the one-state solution many American liberal Jews now officially favor, though they mournfully acknowledge that would soon end Israel's Jewish character.

Faced with a choice between a Jewish Israel and a democratic Israel, they choose the latter.

But so describing the choice hides the real nature of the alternative they now favor.

Imagine if ISIS sent emigrants to The Netherlands in sufficient numbers to make up about 55% of the population or more, five or ten years from now.

Imagine what that would do to The Netherlands, the native Dutch, and any Jews stupid enough to hang around waiting to see what happens.

All right, the comparison is hardly just.

But I say it is not at all clear who would be worse off, the Dutch under the ISIS immigration hypothesis or the Israeli Jews under the democratic one-state Hamas hypothesis.

Liberals who insist on the democratic one-state solution in Palestine are hiding the horrible truth when they sadly agree this will mean the end of Israel's specifically Jewish character, the end of the Zionist dream of a Jewish state, a Jewish homeland in Palestine, as though only that were at stake.

It will mean blood, genocidal slaughter of Jews, persecution and ethnic cleansing of a far more brutal type than that practiced by the Jews of Palestine against the Arabs.

It would not be too unfair, given the facts, to say that liberals who try actively to coerce Israel towards what they will certainly persist in referring to as a democratic one-state solution are objectively pro-Hamas, pro-Islamist, anti-Zionist, and anti-Semitic.

At best, Israel's future would be like Lebanon's past.

Only probably much worse.

PS.

The above considerations go far to explain why Bibi will not accept any significant transfer of legitimacy, sovereignty, or state power to a Palestinian State to be formed out of the West Bank and the Gaza Strip.

Those would be transfers of legitimacy, sovereignty, or state power to Hamas.

Not a prudent move.
