22. you have a different term for it?

It's not Israeli policy (and none of the Israelis with whom I'm personally acquainted would support it), but some ultra-right members of the Knesset have called for it.

Some of these people really do want to see large numbers of Palestinian Muslims either deported or "encouraged" to relocate from the occupied territories. Ethnic cleansing does not specifically mean mass killing.
