Israel is one of the greatest wonders of the world.

Right after WWII, no one would have believed that it would be possible for the decimated and scattered Jews to be a factor in the world. They were a vanquished race. The Jews were basically destroyed. No other single race of people would have been able to come back from such destruction.

Add to the destruction of the Jews in WWII, the rabid racism of the Arabs. Compare the attitude of today's Arab Nations to America, where every race, religion, creed and culture has been offered a place at the table of brotherhood and freedom. America's diversity makes it great. The Arab nations' racism and religious intolerance makes them sad examples of human beings.

But....... the Jews overcame incredible odds and built a democracy in the middle of the vacant and the soul-less deserts of Arab dictatorships.

You say that the Jewish survival was an act of war against the Arab nations. What a sad commentary to the History of the Arabs.
