# Certainly a deportation of all Palestinians is racist.

	This just prooves you have difficulty with reading and
comprehension.

# How do you

	Previous crimes would certainly be a factor.

# Not based on actual threat, for a
# peace-loving Palestinian (and such do exist) is no threat.

	As long as they agree to remain so, they can stay.

# The only

	Again, you seem not to be able to read (or at least remember after
you read it).  That is not the only criteria.  In fact, it is not a
criteria at all.

# Would you include in the deportation order any Jew

	Your nuts.  Anyone could advocate whatever they wanted.  THey
could advocate a "palestinian?" State.  They just would have to agree
not to do anything to bring it about, and they would have to agree to
remain peaceful

# Do you hate the Palestinians?  All of them?
 
	I do not hate "palestinians?".  I love Jews.

# There are presently ethnic Germans living in Czechoslovakia, who have
# lived there since before WWII.

	If you are going to deny that all ethnic Germans were expelled
from the Sudatenland, then you are making up your own version of
history.

# The Greek-Turkish problem is also an
# instance of racism, and any deportations have not eased the tensions

	They may not have eased tensions, but they prevented them from
getting a lot worse and saved lives.  The same will happen in Israel.

# Honestly, name-calling won't get you far.

	Sorry.  Your dishonesty just gets me frustrated.

# Anyway, I doubt that an
# imbecile would be able to spell "imbecile".

	Fine.  I apologize for my sppeling (ha, ha).

# Deportation _is_ your final solution to the Palestinian problem, not a
# way of avoiding the solution.

	Your are getting real good.  This is at least the third time in
this article you have disregarded what I EXPLICITLY wrote.  Either you
are dishonest, you have a very short term memory, or you cannot read.
Which is it?  Or is it a combination?

# It is also against the Geneva
# Convention, and for good reason.  It is not humane, it is not
# civilized, it does not solve problems, it only displaces them.

	I guess bloody war is humane, is civilized, and solves problems.
It only kills people.

# Look
# at the PLO.  They have camps outside of Israel, and aperiodically
# launch attacks against Israel.  Deportation can't solve the
# Palestinian problem.

	Almost all of the border infiltrations involve safe houses and
other aids.  Also, if they continued to launch threats from newar
Israel, they should be expelled from there also.  It will help.

# What would you say about another way of using deportation to solve the
# Arab-Jew conflict:  Deport all the Jews from Israel.  That satisfies
# the arguments you have stated so far.

	Look, you can play games all you want.  If both populations are
not seperated and distanced from each other, both may cease to exist.
