But here is what it always comes back for me. Personally. Compared to every single one of their neighbors they are Paragons of Virtue.
I understand the resentment at having a new country created with a different culture appear with the support of the western powers. And the plight of the Palestinians, which it must be admitted the surrounding Arab sataes have done nothing to help solve.
But through out my life time the goal of all Arab countries have been to destroy the state of Israel as a Jewish state, and in my lone opinion, finish the job Hitler started. And we cant allow that.
I just dont see a resolution although the actions of Israel over the past 25 years have made any resolution seemingly more impossible.
The hope of using Iran as a boogie man to get the Sunnis to accept Israel is a nonstarter. But it is what the republicans are trying.
Or with those fers they are just hoping to bring on Armageddon!
Do much post about this issue cause there are so many different opinions on DU. All very strongly held.
