The Israeli Palestinian Confederation (IPC) outlined upcoming events, including a $10,000 song competition and a discussion challenging the proposed federal government concept. The simulation aims to show how a federal government could pass beneficial legislation without either side’s veto. A video explaining the IPC concept was shown, followed by an overview of key assumptions such as major funding, voter participation, and elected leadership.
The discussion addressed voting eligibility, emphasizing that residents must live in the region for at least six months to vote, raising concerns about Palestinian refugees. While the proposal was seen as a step toward equality, questions arose about preserving Palestinian identity and defining mixed districts.
The IPC clarified that voter designation as Israeli or Palestinian does not impact the voting process, though Parliament members, the President, and Vice President roles would reflect these identities. The conversation also touched on secularism in the Constitution, with concerns about how non-secular majorities might influence governance.
