Israel is a civilized nation and they seem to always have to defend their existence. There is no reason to harm their citizens as they be needed to defend. IOW...Jews are loyal and support each other. In my opinion, Israel is more of a Democracy than the US.
I don't think it is civilized to take land that was set aside for Palestinians and build Israeli settlements on that land in defiance of what had been agreed to Ele. So we disagree. I think Net is an angry hostile leader who is more warmonger than peacemaker. Just my opinion. Worth nothing to anyone but me. They don't have to justify their existence. NET needs to justify HIS actions and treatment of the Palestinians and ignoring rules that were set up. I think he is a jacka**. Now before you label me Anti-Semite remember I am Armenian American and my people suffered extinction at the hands of the Turks as the Jewish people suffered extinction at the hands of the Nazis. I connect with the Jewish people. I relate to them. They are my people too. It is not the people with whom I have any problem. It the leader. Thank you for your reply.

OK...I misundertook your question. Today's Israelis are not responsible for the creation of Israel any more than today's Germans are not for the nazi slaughter of Jews, Poles and Ukrainians. I agree in having a Jewish state...It's location could have been better.
Misundertook? I like it. I'm gonna find a way to use it and I shall give you attribution. Okey dokey? A Jewish state is fine. Equally fine is a Palestinian state. You didn't mention that. What do you have against the Palestinians Ele? Why are they not worthwhile? Why are they expendable? Inquiring minds wanna know these things. If you have the time and the inclination please educate me. Thank you for your reply! :)
That is good to know. There is universal condemnation of Net continuing to build Jewish settlements on the West Bank, including from the US (before the evil orange monkey occupied the White House). That condemnation stems from the arrogance of Net ignoring everything but his evil ambition. It's good to know you DO NOT support him in his nefarious goal of containing/restricting/subjugating the Palestinians and have them under Israeli thumb forevermore. The goal of a despot dictator. You cannot package Net to appear to be a good man. He isn't. In my opinion. Thank you for your followup comment. I appreciate it.
As soon as Israel won their war for independance... that land was theirs to do with what they will. They have given up too much of their land as it is for "land for peace" a peace that never comes.
Imagine is the UN or whoever tried to tell the USA that the southern half of the states will be reserved for Mexico.....no, we won that war and that land is ours.
SIGH. I expect it is WAY too much trouble for you to Google anything about it m2c. Your views are formed solidly and any condemnation of Israel by the United States or any other countries for the Israelis continuing to build settlements on the West Bank would fall on deaf ears. Why the condemnation of any country, especially YOUR country, since your view is that Israel is entitled to do whatever it wants whenever it wants however it wants? Are those countries who condemn all anti-semitic? But I waste my breath. Your head is made up. Thank you for your reply and Happy Friday to thee.
I have googled it. The Arabs there have been offered land for their own country may many times and reject it every time preferring to "wipe Israel off the map".....so they started more than one war and lost each one. Wars have consequences. Anti-Israel....yes most are.
