How to take Israeli citizenship away from Arabs ?

Reader comment on item: The Gods and the Arab-Israeli Conflict

Submitted by Mark Shor (Israel), Oct 21, 2017 at 18:37

The rights of different peoples depend on national priorities of a particular State.

Here are a few examples from the last century:
1. The UK ceased to govern the Irish, the Hindus and the Cypriots.
2. Algerians went out of control of France.
3. The Arabs living west of the Jordan River were deprived of the citizenship of Jordan.
4. Jews and Germans who moved to Israel and Germany were deprived of the citizenship of the USSR.
5. Croats, Bosnians, Macedonians changed their citizenship when they created their own national states.

Similarly, all 7 million Arabs living west of the Jordan River will become citizens of the new Arab State in Palestine.
Such a State already exists de facto, it remains only to clarify its boundaries.
