ionia, almost everything that is done is Israel is on account of Israel's own actions. So what if they're surrounded by Arab countries? Remeber, the founders of Israel chose that spot to build a new nation on. Or where they expecting every to just quietly move along and ignore the land theft? If we're going for "we lived there millenia ago", how about we use a more recent example. Would you give the Natives their land back, which would include all or a part of America? Its was their land not 500 years ago, and they were only driven off it at the point of a gun. So, how about we start deporting the population of the Eastern states right away, after all, justice must be done.
So stop the bull**** about how Israel is hated for no reason at all. They are occupying Palestinian terrirotry (post 1948 I mean, Gaza and the West Bank), they are commiting war crimes, not to mention those bordering on crimes aganst humanity, against the civilian population there. They invaded and occupied Lebanon, a soverign nation. They carry out illegal military operation against Syria. They are training Kurdish forces to fight against Iran and Syria. They have commited a long list of crimes against most of their neighbors. In short, Israel is not blameless. I'm sure it would be very much easier to pretend this is nothing but good old fashioned anti-Semetism, but thats simply not the case.
Whenever some utters a single word against the specific policies pursued by Israel, its Nazi this and that. So, they get to act with impunity, something which almost no other nation on Earth is affdorded.
