Soon world opinion will demand the dismantling of this fascist state.
We cannot forget that Israel is the West’s best ally in a turbulent region. The state of Israel was created by a decision of the UN. Its legitimacy, therefore, should not be in question. Israel is a nation with deeply rooted democratic institutions. It is a dynamic and open society that has repeatedly excelled in culture, science and technology. Owing to its roots, history, and values, Israel is a fully fledged Western nation. Indeed, it is a normal Western nation, but one confronted by abnormal circumstances.What binds us, however, is our unyielding support for Israel’s right to exist and to defend itself. For Western countries to side with those who question Israel’s legitimacy, for them to play games in international bodies with Israel’s vital security issues, for them to appease those who oppose Western values rather than robustly to stand up in defense of those values, is not only a grave moral mistake, but a strategic error of the first magnitude.
Israel is a fundamental part of the West. The West is what it is thanks to its Judeo-Christian roots. If the Jewish element of those roots is upturned and Israel is lost, then we are lost too. Whether we like it or not, our fate is inextricably intertwined. The real threats to regional stability, however, are to be found in the rise of a radical Islamism which sees Israel’s destruction as the fulfillment of its religious destiny and, simultaneously in the case of Iran, as an expression of its ambitions for regional hegemony. Both phenomena are threats that affect not only Israel, but also the wider West and the world at large.
Israel is our first line of defense in a turbulent region that is constantly at risk of descending into chaos; a region vital to our energy security owing to our overdependence on Middle Eastern oil; a region that forms the front line in the fight against extremism. If Israel goes down, we all go down. To defend Israel’s right to exist in peace, within secure borders, requires a degree of moral and strategic clarity that too often seems to have disappeared in Europe. The United States shows worrying signs of heading in the same direction.
The West is going through a period of confusion over the shape of the world’s future. To a great extent, this confusion is caused by a kind of masochistic self-doubt over our own identity; by the rule of political correctness; by a multiculturalism that forces us to our knees before others; and by a secularism which, irony of ironies, blinds us even when we are confronted by jihadis promoting the most fanatical incarnation of their faith. To abandon Israel to its fate, at this moment of all moments, would merely serve to illustrate how far we have sunk and how inexorable our decline now appears. This cannot be allowed to happen. Motivated by the need to rebuild our own Western values, expressing deep concern about the wave of aggression against Israel, and mindful that Israel’s strength is our strength and Israel’s weakness is our weakness, I have decided to promote a new Friends of Israel initiative with the help of some prominent people, including David Trimble, Andrew Roberts, John Bolton, Alejandro Toledo (the former President of Peru), Marcello Pera (philosopher and former President of the Italian Senate), Fiamma Nirenstein (the Italian author and politician), the financier Robert Agostinelli and the Catholic intellectual George Weigel.
What binds us, however, is our unyielding support for Israel’s right to exist and to defend itself. For Western countries to side with those who question Israel’s legitimacy, for them to play games in international bodies with Israel’s vital security issues, for them to appease those who oppose Western values rather than robustly to stand up in defense of those values, is not only a grave moral mistake, but a strategic error of the first magnitude. Israel is a fundamental part of the West. The West is what it is thanks to its Judeo-Christian roots. If the Jewish element of those roots is upturned and Israel is lost, then we are lost too. Whether we like it or not, our fate is inextricably intertwined.
And Israel will become just a footnote in the history books.
[ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bV3W_86NTYA[/ame]Israel is exceptional. I can give you an absolute, unequivocal answer. You can go around the world and it's very impressive to see a country of 7 million create a business like this, I haven't seen anything like this in the US.
When you think about it, if you compare Israel (now) to 1948, it's very, very impressive. It's a remarkable place
The people are Jews who lived in Judah/Judea, the correct historical geographical name of the land from which "Jewish" is derived, when the Romans renamed Judea "Syria Palaestina" 1500 years after Jews lived there and 500 years before the Muslim intruder invaded.
Your history lesson for the day
The Jews were not the first people to live in Palestine nor were they ever the only people living there.
Your history lesson for the day.
The Jewish people are the only surviving people from Canaan. Hittites, Canaanites, Amorites and Jebusites are extinct.
Your history lesson for the day
Results of a DNA study by geneticist Ariella Oppenheim appears to match historical accounts that Arab Israelis ((Palestinian 1948)) and Palestinians, together as the one same population, represent modern "descendants of a core population that lived in the area since prehistoric times
Results of a DNA study by geneticist Ariella Oppenheim appears to match historical accounts that Arab Israelis ((Palestinian 1948)) and Palestinians, together as the one same population, represent modern "descendants of a core population that lived in the area since prehistoric times
The concensus of opinion among historians, archaeologists and ethnologists is so-called Palestinians are descended from Arabs who originated in the Arabian Peninsula, some of whom invaded Canaan in 636 CE where Jews lived for at least 2000 years since 1300 BCE.
You lose.

Your research has no credibility. Arabs originated in Arabia and invaded Canaan in 636 AD, where Jews had lived since at least 1300 BCE, 2000 years earlier.
You're defeated by historical facts.
Thus, you lose.

Take it up with Ariella Oppenheim, an Israeli geneticist.

This makes about 130 countries that recognize Palestine.
How many for Israel? About 90?

Except, Palestine ceased to exist in 1948 and was a European invention.
Israel is a sovereign state dating back at least 3200 years.
No wonder you have zero reputational points. You're not very bright.

Is that why the []1949 armistice agreements[/B] called for peace in []Palestine[/B] and confirmed its defined borders?

"Palestine" was invented by the European Romans and later re-invented by the European Britains.
The correct historical geographical name of the land is Judah/Judea, from which "Jewish" is derived.
Too bad you can't invent any reputational points, right, dumbass?
