>Z, what have the Israelis done to deserve the West's largesse? The fact that there culture is more westernized
than the Arabs.......does that make them special to us?

Ummm... they don't kill civilians on purpose, and they don't oppress their own people or use them as pawns. They're also a democracy. All of that is way more than I can say for most of the Arab states.

>The Arabs/Muslims make up 1/3 of this world. I think its in our best interest to see if there are ways to improve our relationship with them, don't you?

Actually, it's more like 1/5, but that's nitpicking (sorry)...

Why would one want a good relationship with bad guys?
