Your logic, knowledge of history are flawed

If Israel can justify land acqusition on the basis of being attacked, itself questionable, then she should have annexed portions of Iraq, Syria, Jordan and Egypt, for it was those nations which acted against the new state immediately upon David ben Gurion's declaration of Israeli statehood, and the Palestinians who were scattered by the fighting and by Israeli intimidation after the fighting died down. Palestine disappeared from the map, the Palestinians gathered in their refugee camps - this was in 1948, recall - where they hot-headed elements among them have festered ever since, with results with which we are all too familiar.

Rather than providing additional security for Israel, your plan is a recipe for disaster in the Middle East, as I've already pointed out. Israeli critics of Sharon's "strategy of tension" call it a giant terrorist breeding mechanism, but logic like that is lost upon those who insist that might makes right and damn the consequences.

Your attempts to rationalize ethnic cleansing are repugnant and loathesome.
