Did you know that Khomeini and Rafsanjani's avowed goal is the complete destruction of Israel and an elimination of U.S. presence in the Middle East?

Most ME people that have a view on Israel have the same view.

For you to understand, imagine that before the US added Pennsylvania to the Union that Egypt grabbed half of it and set up an Islamic country, and the US objected from its beginning but didn't have the power to get rid of the Egyptian backed country.

Then in a war 30 years later, the Egyptian sponsored state grabs all of what we think of as Pennsylvania, including Philadelphia and all that is to Americans, and for whatever reason the US is not powerful to get it back from the Egyptians. So there we have this Islamic sharia religion country sitting on the place where the liberty bell should sit because the Egyptians got it and we can't get rid of them.

How many Americans would have accepted the Egyptian-sponsored country by today? Zero. And while this analogy is not perfect it hopefully helps you to understand how 99% of ME people want to eliminate Israel - 99% are not Jews, and it is a Jewish state.

That's not to express my personal view about Israel, but it makes total sense for Muslims to not want a Jewish state plopped down on them in land they have occupied for > 2000 years. Don't ya think?
