There are 40% non-Jews in the areas allocated to the Jewish state. This composition is not a solid basis for a Jewish state. And we have to face this new reality with all its severity and distinctness. Such a demographic balance questions our ability to maintain Jewish sovereignty […] Only a state with at least 80% Jews is a viable and stable state.

"

Ben Gurion, In the Battle, pp. 255-72. Quoted by Ilan Pappé, The ethnic cleansing of Palestine, One World, 2006, p. 48.
