Hi slacker711; Re: "Also....you seem to be advocating group suicide on the part of the Israeli's." I think your terminology for what is only the end of a government is rather histrionic. The Russians are still around even though the Soviet Union isn't. The same with the Czechs and Slovaks, as well as the East Germans.

Re: "As Nadine has pointed out, the region has not been kind to Jews in majority Arab countries." (1) Nadine has also pointed out that several Arab countries (and also non Arabic but Islamic countries) have been kind to the Jews. (2) The Jews and Arabs have had an issue going on with each other since the Ottoman Empire. Why should it continue past the end of the conflict? (3) The local Christians seem to get along fine with the Palestinians. (4) It's normal human argument to say that the other side is going to massacre you if they take over. The South Africans said the same thing. Significant massacres do happen, but only very rarely in places where there's lots of TV cameramen.
