Then that takes us back to what was wrong with the Clinton deal of 2000 and why did Arafat return to using terrorism, when he had promised not do so.

We already talked about this.

I believe middle eastern Arabs for the most part are anti-semitic because of government propaganda that fills their heads with hate promotiing nonsense.

You are of course entitled to your opinion. My personal experience from living in the Middle East, and going to school with Arabs AND Jewish kids together, suggests that "hate promoting propaganda" is not as widespread or effective as one might think reading about it from western media.

What ocean would Israel be floating in today if it did not have a crushing military?

Mediterranean Sea, probably. I see your point. However, do they have to CRUSH Palestinian civilians just because they have a "crushing military power"?

If Arabs were more antiisrael than antisemitic, as you suggest, why were jews throughout the Arab world persecuted or driven out of their home countries?

I have to admit I am not familiar with just when or how that happened. Would you care to give me a quick summary?

And even if so, did that happen at about the same time as so many Jewish people were being turned into soap in Western Europe? And would you now use this historic fact to say all Europeans are anti-Semites?
