Considering that Israel has only killed, since the start of the last
Intifada in 2000, about 2600 Palestinians (most of whom were armed or
standing around people who were armed and shooting) out of a population
of 8.7 million, you're horribly abusing that "ethnic cleansing" phrase.
You dishonestly restrict the use of the word, both in time, and in impact.
Ethnic cleansing is the only word to describe the concerted *60 YEAR*
effort to drive Palestinians out of their native land into neighboring arab
countries. Murder, assassination, torture, intimidation, racism,
harassment, destruction of infrastructure, destruction of economy,
destruction of farmland, theft of water, environmental destuction.
The message is quite clear. It is "Get out or suffer".
On the other hand, if the Palestinians would stop bombing buses and
coffee shops, a lot of that death and destruction would stop practically
overnight.
No, it wouldn't. A complete surrender by Paletinians would not halt the
Zionist master plan for the exclusive habitation of Palestine.
I'm surprised, for someone who has such a concern for buses and coffee
shops, that you don't have a greater concern for the Paletinians, who have
lost far more, in both lives, property, and infrastructure, than their better
armed enemy.
