Democracy = Suicide ?

Macleans:

Palestinian Arabs present a challenge to Israel that is at once more straightforward and infinitely more difficult to solve. Within one or two decades, the number of Muslim and Christian Arabs living under Israeli control (including in Gaza, the West Bank and Israel itself) will surpass the number of Israeli Jews. When that happens, if there is still no Palestinian state (and in the absence of large-scale ethnic cleansing), Israelis will be forced to choose between two futures. Their country will either be Jewish, but not democratic — in other words, a Jewish minority will control a land mostly inhabited by Palestinians — or Israel will be democratic, but not Jewish, because Arabs will form the majority in what will become a bi-national state.

Facts like this make Vox Day essentially a prophet when it comes to criticizing modern secular, democratic culture. The Jews of Israel have two choices. Either they live according to the secular, non-judgmental values that include not thinking in terms of "us and them," and then pushing out the Palestinian Arabs completely, or demographic suicide. Obviously, for the Jews, the former is infinitely more preferable, as it is a done deal that an Israel controlled by Palestinians will result in the destruction of the people there.

I meant to add "or they revert to a more natural mindset, and purge their society of the Palestinian Arabs who threaten to overpower them."

As with all things involving Islam, Palestinian demographic rates are suspect. It has been charged that they are based on old estimates that, included double counting and irrational assumptions about how many "refugees" will come streaming back and rather than being revised in the light of actual data, were simply projected forward year on year using flawed fertility assumptions. Jewish fertility rates are above replacement and stable while Palestinian rates are high (not as high as claimed) but falling fast.

Macleans was also getting moist recently about the prospects of an Islamic future for Canada. Like Islamic history and news, much of Islam's demographic prowess is fabricated for emotional impact and political aims.
