Crappy politics

Swedish airforce were to participate in a drill with NATO and other countries. Then Israel wanted to participate and the Swedish PM withdraw our airforce from the excercise! How sick! We haven't had a war for like 150 years and need to excercise! Anyhow, our military didn't know anything about this and got sort of upset. Nevermind them, we are dismantling the entire defence anyways. (Anyone want want a jet fighter? Seriously we have too many suddenly)

Sweden couldn't be a part of the drill (said PM) because of Israel not being a member of the partnership for peace. Like that has ever stopped us before! The PM is such a fool! We have done alot of traing with countries not members of that partnership for peace program. So he lied. (He just didn't want to spend money is my guess).

Well, the Israelis got upset and, get his, they now think Sweden can't be part of peacekeeping in the middle east due to some bias towards palistine! Ha, stupid Israelis! Of course it is good not to train your soldiers with one of the parties in a conflict region. So they are wrong. But they did good anyway, maybe now the PM gets that he can't running around making statments like that and get a way with it.

Well the point is that how ever you conduct yourself in the conflicting middle east one of the sides may always claim bias. Venture in there is a loose-loose situation. Which nations does both arabs and israelis find acceptable? Are there any?

Nope--you're a good guy or a bad guy.

That isn't very constructive? That mean everyone is bad in the eyes of either party in the conflict.

War is inevitable?

Has been since Israel was made a nation.

Maybe so...
But even if that is true Israel can't just disappear. And I think they are showing alot of more willingness to diplomacy than the palistines. Also Isreal doesn't occupy a landmass that was that much developed back then anyway. But the conflict might be impossible to solve. Hasn't there always been conflicts there? After WWIV when earth is a smoking lump of coal in the space, some cocroaches will still fight over land in what was middle east.
