I don't see how Israel/Palestine is any kind of evidence that ethnostates can't work. There are Palestinians that have been peacefully living in Israel just fine for decades. There are unique historical reasons why there's so much conflict in this region.

> Palestinians that have been peacefully living in Israel just fine for decades.

when you write something like this ask yourself if were Palestinian if you would be happy if you son or daughter said they are moving to Israel to live there. if you answer Yes, we good. but of course no way you’d ever say yes…

So you don't take the word of the Palestinians who actually live in Israel. Remarkable, but ok.

don't answer a question with a question :)

They have not been living just fine, and Israel calls them a "demographic time bomb".
