teevee,
Get a grip. Israel hasn't proposed any final solutions lately. On the other hand, Pres. Khamenei of Iran recently proposed, quite seriously, that Israel should be nuked. If Israel is acting paranoid, it's because it has real enemies.

I suggest you take a good look at the vicious and unrestrained hatred that is being spewed by the Muslim world at both Israel and the US before you accuse the West of "dehumanizing" anybody. Or does your own ideology prevent you from ever critically examining the behavior of the "oppressed"?

That article was not about dehumanizing Arabs -- it was about appreciating what is best about the West and how we got to be stronger than the Muslim world. Nor are these advantages limited to Europe and the Americas; didn't you see Hong Kong and South Korea metioned as having taken advantage of them? The Arabs could do so too if they chose. So far only tiny Bahrain has done so. The rest have painted themselves into a corner, and are busy blaming the rest of the world for their troubles.
