<Their dangerous Arab neighbors are thugs and psychopaths -- totally
untrustworthy.>

Nihil, saying something like that is extremely racist and is typical of the same kind of thinking that allowed the Holocaust to happen.

Israel pushed itself unwanted into the middle of a bunch of Arab countries by force, massacring whole villages of Palestinians to make sure that hundreds of thousands of others were so frightened that they fled to neighboring countries for protection, where many of them still live in camps several generations later. While the Israelis were well armed, the Palestinians were not even allowed to defend themselves or their land, where they had been living peacefully for thousands of years.

In columnist Bob Novak's column today, which is unfortunately not yet available on the web for me to cite for you, he discusses the outrage of large numbers of American Zionists at Bill Clinton and Al Gore because Clinton compared the pain of Palestinian children to that of Israeli children whose fathers are in prison for war crimes. There is, in fact, a nascent movement to punish Gore and find a Democratic opponent in the presidential primaries to run against him, who is more deferential to the Jews. This is that sickening Jewish lobby I have mentioned before that some people deny exists. Now anyone who has any sensitivity or objectivity at all would realize that Palestinian children suffer just like Israeli ones do, but the Zionists believe that they are far superior to anyone else.

The reason I am bringing this up is that your comment seems to reflect a similar mind set, where Jews are far superior to Arabs.
