There is no difference between Palestinians and Israeli Arabs. Israeli Arabs are more loyal to Palestine than to Israel. Last month the Jerusalem Post reported that hundreds of Israeli Arabs including Israeli Arab MKs protested in the Old City of Jerusalem demanding that Jerusalem become part of Palestine.

“Arab MKs joined hundreds of Muslim worshipers rioting in the Old City of Jerusalem’s Lions’ Gate Wednesday after police banned men under the age of 50 from entering the Temple Mount due to fear of violence. Rioters threw rocks and firecrackers at the police and security forces, which used riot control equipment. Police then closed Temple Mount to all visitors at 10:15 due to “operative considerations.” Balad MKs Haneen Zoabi, Jamal Zahalke and Bassel Ghattas, as well as UAL-Ta’al’s Ibrahim Sarsour and Taleb Abu-Arrar and MK Muhammad Barakei (Hadash) all took part in the demonstration. “Jerusalem is part of the Palestinian state that the whole world is beginning to recognize,” Zoabi said. “There will be no end to the conflict, no solution without Palestinian sovereignty over Jerusalem.” http://www.jpost.com/Israel-News/In-pictures-Hundreds-protest-limited-entrance-to-Temple-Mount-378945

Most Israeli Arabs call themselves Palestinians. During the summer war against Hamas the blog israellycool.com posted a video showing Israeli Arabs in Yaffo (Tel Aviv) celebrating rocket fire from Gaza… “People always argue with me that Yaffo is a place where Arabs and Jews get along and all is fine and dandy…most of the Arabs there support Hamas and as you can see they celebrate the rockets being fired from Gaza, while taking advantage of the protective measures we have in place for all citizens!…” (see the video) http://www.israellycool.com/2014/07/09/arabs-in-yaffo-tel-aviv-celebrate-hamas-rocket-fire-on-israel/

Israel is now suffering a wave of terror attacks:

October 22 “Baby killed as car rams crowd in Jerusalem terror attack: Vehicle driven by Hamas member careens into people at light rail station; eight others injured, suspect shot; Netanyahu blames Abbas ‘incitement’” http://www.timesofisrael.com/three-reported-injured-in-possible-jerusalem-terror-attack/

October 29 “Israeli Activist Yehuda Glick Shot and Wounded in Jerusalem: A prominent Israeli religious activist was shot and wounded in Jerusalem on Wednesday by gunmen on a motorcycle, in an escalation of months of violence in the city.” http://online.wsj.com/articles/israeli-activist-yehuda-glick-shot-and-wounded-in-jerusalem-1414636036

November 5 “The Jerusalem Light Rail platform camera caught part of the terror attack today. A policeman was killed in the attack, and two more police were injured, along with other pedestrians.” http://www.jewishpress.com/tv/video-picks/jerusalem-run-over-terror-attack/2014/11/05/

All terror attacks were lauded by Abbas who had repeatedly declared that “not even one Jew” will be allowed to live in the West Bank. http://www.commentarymagazine.com/2014/10/21/abbass-palestine-is-the-real-apartheid-state-jerusalem/

If Arabs are allowed to live anywhere in Israel, why are Jews  murdered for living in the West Bank and East Jerusalem ?

If the Palestinians want to expel Jews from the West Bank, Israel should respond by expelling Arabs from Israel. Since the goal of the terror attacks is to make life unbearable for the Jews and expel them from the West Bank and East Jerusalem, Israel should respond to every terror attack by expelling 100 Israeli Arabs to Gaza. Jewish expulsion by terror should be paid with Arab expulsion by deportation.

Which Israeli Arabs should be expelled? Those who are more loyal to Palestine than to Israel, those who fail the loyalty test “Are you proud that Temple Mount is in Israel?” if they say “no” it means they are more loyal to Palestine than to Israel. When there is a terror attack those who failed the Loyalty test would be candidates for deportation.

The concept of reciprocity could also be applied to the demand of “settlement freeze”. Today the Israeli Arabs build 3 times more homes in Israel than the Jews build in the West Bank. If Jews are not allowed to build homes in the West Bank, Israeli Arabs should not be allowed to build homes in Israel. A construction freeze for Jews in the West Bank should be mirrored with an Arab construction freeze in Israel.
