    1. A 2019 estimate suggested that about 10 percent of Israelis held more than one passport

    Source: https://www.dualcitizenshipreport.org/dual-citizenship/israel/

    1. Population is Israel roughly 9.5m. Rough math = 1m with dual citizenships. Add another mill (or even better, 2m) that could qualify for another passport.

    What do you want to do with the remaining few (only 6m or so) that have no grounds to qualify for another citizenship?

    I don’t want my sarcasm to be overlooked. Your core argument is that someone’s ethnicity should be enough for then to ‘fall back on’ should their country cease to exist. And further, that they would congratulate the party responsible for invalidating their country. That’s a stupid and petty argument.

      They can also remain in Palestine and live alongside native Palestinians or return to their home countries under the right of return.

      The point is that ethnic jews would no longer have the exclusive right of self-determination in Palestine.

      Establish Right of Return in host nations through UN treaty. In the meantime, they can take advantage of our - as I am told - overly generous refugee system.
