Israel is a founded theocracy, it hides it's religious control but nothing can be done that crosses the religious Zionistic theme. Fuck them. Treat all people equally, compensate those that were displaced and give the property back to the original owners. Give everyone a vote and the majority arabs will get rid of all remnants of the the stupid zionistic state.
How another people choose to live is not my business, as an American.
As for giving the property back to the original owners, I'm not sure how that will work, given that the vast majority are deceased. Do you mean give it to their heirs?
And are you willing to do that for every instance of expropriation we see in the world around us?

... not to mention the use of economic levers in order to cripple the Palestinian economy at leisure.
