Nope.
Israel is doomed because of Demographics....
Kind of like Apartheid South Africa was.
Very likely. They could save themselves as a Jewish state if they were willing simply to throw out all the Muslims, just as Muslim states everywhere kill or banish all the Jews and any other people following non-Islamic religions, but Islam supporters cleverly have a publicity system of huge outcry about any kind of defensive move against Islamists, so they can't do what Muslims routinely do.
It seems obvious to me that Israel needs to drive a lot of Palestinians into Syria, which richly deserves them, and normalize their borders with real states that have something to lose. And make Israel lozenge-shaped instead of the silly and unrealistic limited territory it is now.
I really don't think Israel is actually trying. They are failure looking for a date with history.
It's a bad sign that they keep pleading with us to do all their fighting for them. We aren't their pets or their servants.
I think it's more than that.
Back in the 1940's, the Zionists did EXACTLY what you suggested. They drove all the Muslims out of the pre-1967 borders. Jordan and Egypt took the rest, and left the Palestinians in that limbo. It was then that the Islamic states drove out all their Jews and most of them ended up in Israel.
Today they can't do that without the world being offended.
But there's more. of the world's 15 million or so Jews, six million live in Israel, about six million live in the US and Canada. The remainder live in Europe.
There's no great desire for those who don't live there to move there, and a lot of the ones who do would probably prefer to live in a place where their neighbors aren't trying to blow them up.
It was a terrible idea to start with, so I won't be upset when it fails.
