I agree that full Palestinian citizenship could present an existential threat to Israel. You should probably though word your argument a little differently (respectfully?), and also present some of the "all the evidence". You should also try to argue why it's okay to control the lives of Palestinians while not giving them fair representation - that would make your case stronger.

Israeli Arabs have full representation and right to vote. Palestinian refugees have chosen that path. They made war several times and this is their fate. They have themselves to blame. Exhibit A is Islam and its tenet that it will not be ruled by a non-Muslim, making them unsuitable as democratic political partners. Exhibit B is Jew-hatred among Israeli Arabs which is the reason they are constantly belligerent to Jews. Exhibit C is Jew-hatred among so-called Palestinians that causes them to make constant war toward Jews. Exhibit D is the reality that there has never been a state with defined borders called Palestine. Exhibit E is the lie that "Palestinian" is an ethnicity. Exhibit F is the reality that most, if not all, Palestinians names are Arabic. ... want more ? Peter Beinart does not deserve the respect you think he should get. He's a patsy for people who think with their hearts instead of their heads.

Why give "respect" to a moron?
