Judea/Samaria cannot be "judenrein"
Benjamin Netanyahu has made an excellent point that real peace does not mean segregation according to race:
(IsraelNN.com) In defense of the settlements and of insistence on Arab recognition of Israel as a Jewish state, Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu encouraged cabinet members to use the Nazi-era word "Judenrein" - German for "cleansed of Jews" - and used the expression in his meeting with German Foreign Minister Frank-Walter Steinmeier.And I'm glad to hear that the German diplomats kept their mouths shut on the subject too. This is a point that needs to be made anywhere and everywhere, that no matter your sex/race/religion/nationality, segregation is abominable.
"Judea and Samaria cannot be Judenrein," a Netanyahu associate quoted him as telling Steinmeier in response to demands that all Israeli settlements in Judea and Samaria be removed.
Asked how the foreign minister responded to hearing the weighty word the confidant said, "What could he do? He basically just nodded."
German officials made no comment on the terminology.
