Good point. Still, "not having the right to exist" sounds to me -- and more importantly, to those undecided on the issue -- like it's encouraging the destruction of the things that are in Israel, not the entity of Israel itself. Which is obviously not a take that's likely to attract support.

That's why I say it has a right to become Palestine. It will still exist, sort of, but in a revolutionary new form.

And Israelis can become Palestinians.

Assuming they aren't just settlers that moved there recently to steal land, of course.

if the world was fair, that tract of land in the middle east would become palestine, jewish immigrants would be allowed to live there and have full citizenship and rights, but a nice chunk of territory would be carved out of central or eastern europe to make "settlerania".
