President. will not enhance Israels security. It will not contribute to the countrys financial independence. And it will not make Israel more confident in its negotiations with the Arab representatives of the West Bank. But it will leave the country with a severe challenge to absorb hundreds of thousands of immigrants who need Jobs and shelter. I therefore submit that both sides lost this debate. We now have a result that leaves Israel struggling to face its most significant demographic challenge since 1948 while nothing has been done to advance either the peace process or our own political and economic interests in the Middle East.
