Nothing changes with the Israeli elections when it comes to Palestinians. For 40 years I have sat in Beirut after the elections and I have said that things will change, for better or for worse, but nothing does and the colonies for Jews and Jews only continue to be built on Arab lands. There is not going to be a Palestinian state. Most Israelis don’t want it to happen. Many do it, very bravely, and their own countrymen curse them for saying so.
Israel’s long-term security is in jeopardy if there is no Palestinian state, for two reasons: if it occupies three million Palestinians and doesn’t give them a vote, or if it annexes Israel’s territory to the Jordan River and still doesn’t. one vote, then you are an apartheid state. That is not a criticism, it is reality. On the other hand, if you give them a vote, then the Arabs are the majority and it will no longer be Israel.
