Is Israeli Paranoia the Real Problem in the Middle East?

Question

Israel wants the USA to destroy any country in the Middle East that it deems to be a threat. So far we have done this (For Israel and for our Oil conglomerates) at the cost of our own security and physical and economic and there still is no peace for Israel. Wouldn't it be better if the we (USA) stopped pandering to Israeli fear and told her to work harder at making friends and less hard at making enemies?

Answer 1

Let's see: the Arabs (led by the Palestinians) say that their purpose is to "erase the illegal state of Israel" and to "kill every last Israeli pig (a vicious slur coming from Arabs and going to Jews, right?), that Jews eat (yes, eat!) Arab children, and so on and so forth.

The Jews say that they'd like to "live in peace under a two-state solution".

See the difference, Binky?

Now, I'm not saying that one side or the other is all right or all wrong - just that the typical (no, not ALL of it!) rhetoric is just slightly different coming from the leading newspapers of the two sides.  You HAVE read English-language Arab press to see what it and Arab leaders have to say about the state of Israel, right?  If not, it will make your hair stand on end!

Answer 2

US must stop supporting Israel so that terrorism will be eliminated and there will be no problem with the supply of oil.

Answer 5

Saying that the USA does something solely for Israel's interests and not its own, in other words, a variation on "the Jews control the US government" is the thing that sounds like paranoia to me, not to mention anti semitic.

And for the record, since Israel's inception most Arab states have been in an official "state of war" with it even if for most of that time the state of war hasn't been hot. As it stands now, there is a country nearby whose leader has made threats to it and has definitely had a nuclear weapons program in the past. Thus, it is logical to be concerned about such developments. To not be concerned would itself be a problem.

Update:

Yet some more distortions of reality. The Arab leaders keep the "anger of their people" in check? That is so rich. If anything, it is the Arab leaders over the past 60 years who have helped perpetuate myths about Israel which has lead to many of the problems that the Middle East has found it in. Your attempt to portray them as a "moderating force" (aparrently in an attempt to further your premise that Israeli are "paranoid") is quite laughable.

And for the record, the term "anti Semite" and "anti semitism" specifically refers to "Jew hatred", the definition of "Semite" notwithstanding. That is the dictionary definition. But it is a common tactic to use the "anti semitism applies to the Arabs!" non argument as well as the faintly anti semitic "The Jews are not really semites" non argument that you attempt.

Ah well. The more you write the more you show yourself to be ignorant.

Answer 6

No. The US has dug its own grave. Isreal does not benifit from a stronger Iran and Iraq in chaos.
