As the head of the Moledet Party, Rahavam was best known for his call to "voluntarily transfer" the Arabs out of Israel. "Voluntary transfer" was an impotent catch phrase that meant nothing. The Arabs weren't going to leave voluntarily, and Rahavam wasn't going to force them. This is the reason why his message never caused the Left to lose their minds, as they did when Rabbi Kahane called for the forcible eviction of the Arabs. The Left knew that Rahavam posed no threat to them or the Arabs. If anything, he siphoned away votes from Kach, the only political party that had a legitimate opportunity to change the direction of the country. Rather than strengthening the argument for transfer, Rahavam's platform took away it's teeth.
As someone who was slaughtered Al Kiddush Hashem, and whose soul now rests in the Olam Ha'Emet, Rahavam would surely want us to state the truth. Whatever mistakes he made in his political career, Rahavam's death at the hands of the Arabs grants him the status of a kadosh. May G-d avenge his blood!
They Must Go! On their own, or with a little Jewish elbow grease.
* Disturbing Fact: Merchav Am is a yishuv in the northern Negev named after Rahavam Ze'evi. The community regularly hires Arab laborers.
