who at this point actually approves of the doctrine of manifest destiny? it was a cover for genocide....i dont see the difference between that and visions of the "greater israel" if that vision requires and legitimate the continued social and economic pulverization of the palestinians.
if the alternative version of zionism, the one that imagined coexistence, was still operative (dominant would be better still) maybe this whole scenario would be otherwise than it is....
since the thread started off in an "as-if" mode, perhaps within it one is permitted to dream....
