The lack of legitimacy of the national Jewish state is the source of the problem.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The recent Lebanon war also showed that a majority of Israeli-Arabs thought &#8220;every enemy of State of Israel should at least be understood,&#8221; Schueftan emphasized. He added that the document released by the Higher Monitoring Committee said &#8220;the Jews rose as a colonialist phenomenon&#8230; who expelled&#8230; butchered&#8230; and the Palestinians have only fought for peace.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;No fix&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This is a reality for which there is no fix. The Palestinian national minority in Israel has a consensus view demanding recognition by the Jews of their exclusive guilt and their own lack of legitimacy, as well as an agreement to destroy the national Jewish project,&#8221; Schueftan argued . He said that Israeli-Arab leaders who voiced such views were accurately representing the views of the wider Arab public. <\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Academic: Israeli-Arabs Want End of Jewish State, by Yaakov Lappin (Ynet) &#8220;The Palestinian national minority in Israel has a consensus view demanding recognition by the Jews of their exclusive guilt and their own lack of legitimacy, as well as an agreement to destroy the national Jewish project.&#8221; Excerpts; There was no way of accommodating the [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2216","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sefer-torah.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2216","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sefer-torah.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sefer-torah.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sefer-torah.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sefer-torah.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2216"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/sefer-torah.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2216\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sefer-torah.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2216"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sefer-torah.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2216"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sefer-torah.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2216"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
