Israel has been conducting it's own little private holocaust for decades.
The real Holocaust greatly cut the Jewish population.
The population in Gaza and the West Bank has been growing.
Saying you are better than the Nazi's is not much of a claim.
Imagine how many more Palestinians there would be if Israel had not killed so many and oppressed so many for so long?
But of course that is one reason Israel is doing it.
Once again, your ideology blinds you.
What I was saying is that it's obviously not a holocaust.

Incorrect. There is exactly one border crossing between the West Bank and Jordan (Allenby_Bridge), and it's operated by the Israeli Airport Authority. And there's also exactly one border crossing from Gaza to Egypt (Rafah) which is frequently and for long times closed to all traffic, often under implicit pressure by Israel. And the Israeli navy blocks ships trying to enter Gaza, which, assuming Israel no longer claims Gaza as it proclaims, constitutes piracy under any valid definition of the term.
At neither crossing does Israel control who is allowed to cross.
It is a brutal repressive ugly nation.
While it's not exactly a shining star it's still vastly above everyone around it.
This is relevant why?
Because you're advocating for the fire over the frying pan.

It would not mean the end of the State of Israel. It would mean the end of the unassailable Jewish majority; Jews would still be the majority population but no by much, and any successful political parties would have to work with Christian and Muslim Israelis in order to govern. In time it might mean that Israel's character would be secular instead of Jewish.
It would be hardline Islamic, not secular. (...)
How is this going to work, mathematically?
The Palestinian Territorries population is 4.55 million, including Jewish settlers in the West Bank. The population of Israel is 8.5 million, including Israeli Arabs. Fertility rates in the Palestinian Territorries are falling, while they are rising in Israel mostly due to the rising share of the Ultraorthodox segment of the population.
In fact, if Israel wants to maintain its secular character, it arguably has to give citizenship rights to the Palestinians to balance the growing influence of the ultraorthodox.
Add in the returning "refugees" and they have a majority. Very soon the Jewish population is zero.

As people become educated and comfortable birth rates go down.
Israel is preventing this from happening.
But that does not mean the population will decrease.
What prevents that in Palestinian lands is a brutal occupier. Who would willfully put themselves under such oppression?
Israel?? It's the Palestinians that are preventing it. Things were looking up so their leaders picked a fight to keep them down.
