Zionist leader worries that democracy in Israel/Palestine is bad thing

Hear the fear in the words of somebody who knows that true equality for Jews and Palestinians will mean the end of Jewish privilege. We should welcome it:

President Shimon Peres is concerned that Israel might become a binational state, in which case, he warned, it would cease to exist as a Jewish state.

“I’m concerned about the continued freeze [in the peace talks],” Peres said to people who visited him this week. “I’m concerned that Israel will become a binational state. What is happening now is total foot-dragging. We’re about to crash into the wall. We’re galloping at full speed toward a situation where Israel will cease to exist as a Jewish state.”
