This post is baloney. It is not “genocide” to
advocate ending the subsidy for Palestinians.
Genocide means killing a people. Welfare has very
negative effects on the recipients–in America
as well as in the Middle East.
Paying for generation after generation of
Palestinian refugees is a cruel imposition on
the people. They need to get on with their lives.
Your use of the word “genocide” cheapens the
impact of a word that applies in Europe to Nazis,
to the Rowandans in Africa, the Cambodians in
Asia. It is not the domain of academics.

the demand in question was the palestinian recognition of israel as a jewish state

from an earlier post of mine on tony karons site almost a year ago

i always thought the real purpose of this demand, (aside from its current application as a distraction by natanyahu) was to kneecap the right of return issue, since insistence by the palestinians, should they accept the initial demand, would be effectively sabotaging or challenging this via demographics should they insist on the right of return. there are also darker implications, mainly in form of the blank cheque international acceptance of this definition grants the israeli govenment in ‘managing’ undesirable (from the zionist perspective) demographic trends.

Jordan as the Palestinian homeland is an old song . . . George Will was singing it 30 years ago.
I’d gladly foot the bill to move the Palestinians elsewhere if it would resolve the problem. But of course the Palestinians want their land back. And why shouldn’t they have it back? On the other hand, the Israelis are there . . . what’s to be done with them? The only just solution is a united Palestine where Arabs, Jews and everybody else are all citizens with equal rights. We can’t turn back the clock — as much as I deplore the creation of Israel, one can’t just “get rid of” the Israelis. They aren’t going anywhere unless they’re forced to. And that would mean a bloodbath. Maybe the day will come when all will realize that cooperation and equal rights benefit all. We can only hope.

Canada a Nazi state? Getting a little carried away, aren’t you, Delia? On the other hand, you folks did do a pretty thorough job of eliminating the aboriginal peoples, eh? But I can’t help myself, I have several Canadian friends — I like Canadians.

Actually the final solution has been chugging along on for some time.

Got to the Library of Congress or Thomas.gov and stick Palestine into the search function and sit back. It’s gonna split out dozens upon dozens of bills from the house to cut aid, eliminate aid, control aid, ad nauseam for the Palestine refugees in refugee camps….look at the sponsors names and you get the drift. Also a bills, a particularly bad one, to “dissolve” the Palestine refugees…simply declare them not refugees. In the expectation I suppose that then Egypt or Jordon would have to take them in as citizens. The goal of congressman like Ackerman, a bigot if there ever was one, and his fellow travelers who propose this stuff is of course to head off or kill any of the right of return stuff and to prevent them even returning to Palestine itself….gotta keep those numbers down.

Then visit (online) a little org called The Jerusalem Summit ..rummage around and you will come across their “humane plan” for peace. Which is to ‘transfer” the Palestinians to Jordon. You know the claim that there is no Palestine so Palestinians must belong to Jordon…. gawd!
But they are willing to give each Palestine a small nest egg to take to their new country…if the US pays for it. Take note of the US politicians and other US notables who belong to this insane group. They also want to destroy the UN and start a new one in ..guess where…Jerusalem. Because they say..thru a bunch of religious mumjumbo I can’t describe…the Jewish state and people are suppose to be the moral leaders of the universe.

Beam me Scotty!

Canada is already taking an active role in this genocide project, having cut its funding to UNRWA a few weeks ago citing “Canadian values.” It’s been a long slide down this slippery slope for us Canadians, from enlightened social democracy to nazi state.

I just read the interesting New Left Review article you highlighted. Heinsohn appears to be rather a crankish figure. Still, the “youth bulge” in the Muslim world remains a problem for Europe in particular, despite the technological superiority of the advanced countries. This is why I’ve pointed out that the maintenance of cultural identity is a real concern (and a legitimate one) in Europe and elsewhere.

A question from the article: are “prime adults” still an “asset” in an economy experiencing 16-17% real unemployment, with millions of jobs perhaps lost forever?

Apparently Kramer and Heinsohn don’t mince their words! I’m waiting for someone of this ilk to propose a “final solution” to the Palestinian question.
