Yes, creating Hamas to counter the PLO, them collectively punishing and slaughtering the civilians kettled inside the worlds largest open air concentration camps based on the actions of this Frankenstein's Monster, Hamas, has definitely lit a bright torch of wisdom, shining it's light upon a subject frequently outlined by the CIA and spoken of by presidential hopeful Dr Paul, a subject known as "Blowback". So yes, a shining example indeed, of what not to do...

Israel is a shining example to the western world. Europe and the US need to follow her example and deal with the islamic manace

@simcha6 Fuck you man! Everyone is a human, no one deserves to die, shame on you. I thought 29 year olds in USA are at least not racist, but i see it now !

I am 15 year old white American and I don't hate any race. I feel sorry for people like you. Living in 21st century and still discriminating.

@howie1962 In this case, the what the Quran says is so far from the truth it's almost sad. It is true that war and murder can lead to peace, but there are thousands of instances where negotiations and deals have led to peace. The majority of Muslims are peaceful and just, but if they take the Quran very literally, they will be very misguided. It is the same with the torah, but there are no Jews that take the command "kill all the descendents of Amalek" literally.
