  What do you mean by that? 

  I have told for years any pro-Israel person that if they were interested in 
democracy, they would -- besides tearing down all Ghetto walls and fences 
and withdrawing the Israeli armed forces behind the 1948-67 border and 
lifting all restrictions of movement which are in place for Arab Palestinians 
-- that they should recognize all people having their permanent home in 
historic Palestine and all UNRWA-registered Arab Palestinian refugees the 
right to vote in a constituend assembly which then would establish the 
foundations of a real democracy in Palestine. 

   This is of course always being rejected because such a state would not be 
ruled by a colonial ethnocracy.
