JERUSALEM // Tzipi Livni, the woman leading the ruling Kadima party into
Israel’s forthcoming elections, stoked anger in the region last week when she
warned that a peace deal would put the future of the country’s 1.2 million
Palestinian citizens inside Israel in doubt.
Speaking to a group of Jewish schoolchildren in Tel Aviv, she said: “When
the Palestinian state is created, I will be able to go to Palestinian citizens,
who we call Israeli Arabs, and say to them – you are residents with equal
rights, but your national solution is in another place.”
Late last year, before becoming head of Kadima, Ms Livni made similar,
though less noticed, comments. She declared that a Palestinian state in Gaza and
parts of the West Bank would be the “answer” to Israel’s Palestinian
citizens, who constitute nearly a fifth of the country’s population.
Ahmed Tibi, an Arab member of parliament, demanded that Ms Livni explain her
intention: “She must decide whether she means to leave a million Arabs
without political rights or a national identity, or whether she really intends to
transfer a million Arab citizens to the Palestinian state that will be
established.”
