Subject: RE: BS: New Israeli atrocity: attack on Gaza aid
We describe the world without Israel as a world in peace, peace at last, as does CarolC when she writes that Palestina without Isarel would be a tolerant and democratic State and that there is no reason not to trust Hamas: this is about complicity.

Roberto, there is not a chance in hell that Hamas would be ruling Palestine/Israel if it were a state for all of its citizens and citizenship is not conditional on religion or ethnicity. And this is why I am not concerned about Hamas when I say that Israel should be a country for all of its citizens and that citizenship should not be conditional on any religion or ethnicity.

Hamas didn't even get a majority of the vote among Palestinians. They only got a plurality. There no way that it would get a majority of the vote if all of the people who in what is now Israel would also be voting.

You just keep framing it as if I believe that Hamas would be ruling the country because your own racism doesn't allow you to tolerate the idea of Israel being a country for all of its citizens and for citizenship not to be conditional on one's religion or ethnicity.
