(4,557 posts)Seems to only be present in populations in a certain area who practice a fundamentalist/radical version of a certain religion.
The US and its allies utterly destroyed Germany and Japan, subjecting it's civilian populations to immense bombing campaigns and the only use of nuclear weapons as an act of war. And yet we are on the best of terms with each country today.
Relations with Vietnam and Cambodia have both been normalized and Americans are welcomed there with open arms.
Countless other international examples can be made.
So let's stop blaming Israel for being a target for the last 80 years and instead focus on radical Islam and it's hatred of the west in general and Israel/Jews in particular. They have been quite clear in their stated goal of eliminating Israel and the Jewish people from the face of the earth. Maybe it's time we start believing them.
