(SF novel) East of Nakba (145)
Chapter 48 Inner enemy of Jewish state (4) Will
the population reverse? (3/3)
The Israel Institute of Population Studies
estimated that if current trends continued, the number of Arabs in Israel would
surpass that of Jews by 2050. The preface of its report implied that the
government had to take some countermeasures if they didn’t like the forecast
figure. This was the reason why the government strongly opposed the
repatriation of Palestinian refugees.
International public opinion was sympathetic to
the return of Palestinian refugees to their original places. It was one of the peace
conditions between Israel and Palestine. But once the repatriation took place,
the Jews had to accept disadvantages when parliament election was held. The
result of election would be nightmare for the Jews.
What other measures could Jews take? No one had
a clear answer. Yes, there was one answer. But nobody could say it verbally.
