I watched a long video the other day that noted the concerted effort by the entire Middle-Eastern Muslim world to eradicate the Jewish State. It was claimed that this campaign has even done the previously unthinkable job of uniting Sunni and Shia (Iran and Saudi Arabia). It predicted the start of a vast regional war, which, given the interest of China and Russia, could lead to World War III, whatever that is. The biggest uncontrollable and unknown factor was - of course - whether and when Israel will get fed up with the bullshit and employ a tactical nuclear weapon. Or two.
And one wonders, what is it, exactly, that Israel is doing to provoke this intense mobilization of the surrounding community. Israel is vastly more "successful" than any of its antagonistic countries. Israel has tamed the desert, and made itself an invaluable source of innovation in a wide variety of industries..computer science, pharmaceuticals, chemicals, agriculture, and others. Americans of a certain age will recall Ronald Reagan's "Star Wars" technical initiative which we could never make work, but the Israeli's perfected it and it is now called their "Iron Dome." In contrast, the surrounding Arab/Muslim countries remain shit-holes except for the oil that Western Man discovered there, and that fuels their societies.
It is said that Israel "oppresses" its "Palestinian" population and is conducting a campaign of "genocide," both of which are, logically speaking, preposterous. If one goes back a hundred fifty years, one sees a sparsely populated desert, a backwater of the Ottoman Empire where no one would ever voluntarily live. But the early Zionists brought viable farms, communities, and prosperity that attracted Arabs from around the region for the jobs that they provided. Indeed, the vast majority of the "Palestinians" who live there now would not even be there today if it were not for the economic success of the Jews who resettled there in the hope of an eventual Zionist country. And any look at the Palestinian population over time shows the ridiculous lie of the genocide accusation.
And is Israel not entitled to defend itself? The current international dialog simply dismisses the decades long campaign of unprovoked attacks on the Jewish State, and supposes them into non-existence...attacks that continue to this very day.
Where are the other Arab states who would be willing to accept "Palestinian" refugees as citizens, if things are so bad in Israel? They expect European countries to accept THEIR expats with welcoming arms; why won't they accept Palestinians, who share a culture and a religion with them? The answer is hardly worth stating: Because Palestinians are a figurative "cancer" who spread the disease of strife and terrorism wherever they go.
A large regional war may be inevitable, but Israel's only true crimes are of existing and thriving, things that the Arabs cannot stand.
As a British statesmen once pondered, Why can't they just settle their differences peacefully, like good Christians?
