I’m not thinking of 17th century colonialism or anything like that, I’m just wondering if giving them (by force) a constitution and keeping them under control (by force) while they adapt would work (think, post-WWII West Germany or Japan).
Please note I am not saying that this would really solve the problems between Israel and Palestine or that it is in any way feasible… in fact, I didn’t even want to write down this thought, which is why I stopped at “they don’t deserve” without going further on (which in hindsight was probably not the smartest choice).
