The Suez War '57 was not self-defense, nor the war in '67, nor its many attacks on Lebanon.
Egypt and Jordan signed treaties because they are US puppet regimes and paid large sums by the US every year, second only to aid to Israel. That is not real peace.
Israel and US rejected out of hand the Arab Peace Initiative in 2002, why? Peace means compromise, but Israel flatly refuses.
Current revolts in the Arab world should convince Israel it can't rely on the US to protect it forever.
The Jews deserve a homeland every bit as much as the Palestinians. To say otherwise is complete hypocrisy. Every war Israel has been engaged in was in complete self-defense. If you want to talk about somebody making friends with their neighbors, talk to the Arab countries. Israel is willing to make peace with any Arab country willing, see Egypt and Jordan. Peace in the Middle East will only exist when the Arab countries learn to accept Israel's natural right to exist.
@leibo26 Israel's way of defending their borders is to expand them. The settlers have CHOSEN to live on the West Bank, and when they are attacked, Israel builds walls around the settlements and restricts road access for Palestinians.
They refuse to acknowledge that they can live in Israel because someone else had to leave. They insist that Jerusalem is theirs, that it should be Jewish and not mixed despite the thousands of years it was under Muslim rule.
i say all this giving israel land on middleeast was a mistake. the best thing that can be done now. give murder terorist country israel a timelimit of 5 year condition" get friends with youre neigbours " if not done international armies goes in and disarm israel to there neigbours level.
that way they wouldnt be so arogant. that is the only solution and no other solution can be done there its maybe harsh but only option left. israel always has been a agresive war country.
1st of all Sharon is a war criminal, as well as Bush, but at least Arafat's response could be understood in the context of oppresion. So what we had were two war criminals calling a dictator, who had support from some people in Palestine, a terrorist. What is worse? Arafat put Palestine on the map when the Israelis erased it in '48 with their war crimes and ethnic cleansing. So a lot of people have done a alot of unacceptable things in the middle east not just Arafat. US gives Israel $3mil/yr
