Don’t ask me! Ask the founding fathers of the colonial entity!
‘Zionist colonisation must either stop, or else proceed regardless of the NATIVE population. Which means that it can proceed and develop only under the protection of a power that is independent of the NATIVE population – behind an iron wall, which the NATIVE population cannot breach.’
‘That is our Arab policy; not what we should be, but what it actually is, whether we admit it or not. What need, otherwise, of the Balfour Declaration? Or of the Mandate? Their value to us is that outside Power has undertaken to create in the country such conditions of administration and security that if the NATIVE population should desire to hinder our work, they will find it impossible.’
– Vladimir Jabotinsky, 1923 (Mussolini-loving spiritual grandfather of the Likud party), ‘On the Iron Wall’
