Brad, that is pure bunk and beneath you. Do you really advocate that there will be no more ethnicities and nor more tribes and the world will all speak Chinese?
Forget your mother tongue or be killed? Yes I know America did advocate that not so long ago in those reservation boarding schools with the highest "suicide" rate in the country. My point should be obvious. Ethnicities are here and murder is not acceptable. The only choice proffered thus far for the Jews in Israel is that they disappear or live in North Dakota. Send a temperate desert people to North Dakota. Great. How about Wyoming if you aren't going to give them Texas. At least its beautiful and has a small population that could all become Jewish. Then we could watch the Christians and the Moslems devour themselves in the Middle East. We could also pay to move the Temple Mount and Wailing Wall to the Grand Tetons. You can move a lot of stone for a billion dollars. And we would give the Jews a lot better real estate than they were given the first time. Then there wouldn't be that dual citizenship stuff. Of course the moment they have their own state all of the rest of the country would want to move there without converting. So you would have to make it like Nichols Hills (Super Wealthy) in Oklahoma City. A city within a city or a country within a country. After they began become prosperous, the poor neighbors around them could complain to Washington and some President would be elected on a "move the Jews" platform to someplace like Death Valley or something. After all they would be "better equipped for that since they were desert people and from the Middle East" and then they could have a "Trail of Tears" and the Non Jews could all rush in and take over the mansions and 1/3 of the Jewish population could die on the trail. What do you think? Maybe they have a point about staying where they are and "screw the world!." Or Brad could learn Chinese. He would have fun with calligraphy and our music phobes could learn the difference between a tuned and untuned syllable.
