- "A situation in which
Israel controls the entire territory between
the Jordan River and the sea, and allows
different sets of rights to exist based on
national-ethnic identity, will be called
under the best circumstances Israeli
apartheid. Israel will lose its moral right
to exist as a nation. Israel will lose the
ability to claim it is a democracy. The
Israeli and Palestinian people will suffer
beyond imagination once the situation
devolves into the next round of violence,
when everyone is fighting everyone for
everything. It will be national suicide".
(Gershon Baskin, in The Jerusalem Post, August 29, 2011).
