“Now, one of the myths about Israel is crumbling. That of Palestinians inside Israel being happy campers with full rights and loving the democracy.”
There never was such a myth. Arabs in Israel enjoy the democracy that Israel is. They have grievances, like any other Israeli; some are justified, others are manufactured and can be attributed to Palestinian propaganda. It is an open secret that Israeli Arabs feel kind of guilty of having such a good life when their brethren are suffering. So from time to time they try to pretend they are like occupied Palestinians, not free citizens in a free country.
They like living in Israel well enough. One proof for that is their refusal to accept a plan for re-plotting the border so that it incorporates their towns and villages into a future Palestine. What reason would they have for refusing to become integrated into a Palestinian state? There is no question of transfer. They are sitting put. All that changes is their citizenship. So why object, if they are so unhappy in Israel? Isn’t it because in Israel they get all the benefits of living in a democracy? Is there any other Arab, or Muslim, country, that can offer them even remotely the rights they have in Israel?
Your “knowledge” of history reflects an education inspired by Palestinian mythology, which relies heavily on such works as The Protocols of the elders of Zion, and Mein Kampf.
