The controlled American media likes to say that the Arabs like to hate America and Israel as an outlet for their frustration with their corrupt leaders.
Wrong.


Just saw a report that in Bahrain, which is trying liberal democracy. Anger at Israel is fading fast and they cancelled a pro-intifada march. The local Imam says it would be fine to recognize Israel if they withdraw to the Green Line. The Crown Prince sympathises on Larry King with "innocent Israeli victims of terrorists". Bahrain is 15 minutes away from Saudi Arabia.

May be something to the theory that Israel is just a proxy for local anger, after all. I mean, it's not as if anyone but the Palestinians cared for the Palestinians.
