Here's an undocumented speculation:

-- a tribal society that transcends Nationality
-- a doctrine of the superiority of the tribe
-- a culture/religion that supports the doctrine
-- a focus on money and power as a source of "happiness" and tribal security.

which contributes to "superior performance" in the marketplace
and cupidity, envy and manipulatable targeting by "non-tribal members".

Plus, in the case of Sharon-version Israel, the application of
"Karpmann's Triangle" (Victim/Persecutor/Rescuer) in which the
Victim role (holocaust victims) is exchanged for the Persecutor role (Sharon mentality) and the Persecutor (Nazi Germany) becomes part of the potential Rescuer(EEU) and the Palestinians(and Arabs generally) drop into the role of the Victim (somewhat reluctantly, of course).

Sort of a sloppy analogy, but you get the general idea.

I don't expect anybody to agree, but you invited opinions.....

Namaste!
