They've not moved to Ulster, they were born there, and have lived there for hundreds of years. Do you really think they'll take your solution lying down?
Such a simplistic notion would result in bloodshed on a massive scale. You know nothing of the Unionists' willingness to fight.
So, you give credence to time one's group lives in a land, but you may be ready to give land to the Palestineans, even though Israelis are now removed from the original Zionists by about three, or more generations? Wait, let me correct myself. You are only pointing out that the Unionists won't lie down and play dead, so to speak. And, the same goes for the Jewish Israelis. So, perhaps, there is a double standard, since you accept the Unionists willingness to fight, in the manner you warn of "bloodshed," but like a good European, in my opinion, the Jew can always be eventually pushed aside.
I think you are not really aware of the tenacity of the majority of Israelis, since they just didn't migrate to Israel, a la the Scotch Presbyterians migrated to Northern Ireland, but many Israelis are only a generation or two removed from ancestors that never made it to Israel. They made it to Treblinka, etc., etc.
In my opinion, your double standard is showing. So, if there is bloodshed in Israel, because the Palestineans are emboldened by Euroepeans taking up their cause, will European pro-Palestinean activists quickly do a Pontius Pilate at that point and claim no involvement?
