Oh you asked about Israel - things they have blown:

Gee, I only pay attention to the big issues there - the building of the wall whish was a good thing, the pullout of Gaza which who knows if that is good or not, the bombing of Iraq's nuke facility - thank God they did that.

One thing they really blew is they encouraged the islamic movement which eventually became hamas early on (before it turned to violence) hoping an islamic movement would be a more positive counterweight to the nationalist Fatah. That was a mistake - hamas became something just as bad, maybe worse. Also going back aways, they were stupid to allow Lebanese Christians into a Palestinian camp given the historic violence between the Palestinians and Lebanese Christians.

But in general, I consider that Israel exists and has a right to continue to exist and the root of the continuing problem is the utter refusal of much of the other side to accept that.
