"Nah, they like them fine...in their place."

That sounds more like Israel's position. We will take your land and you need to just accept it and be good little Arabs..look what we can do for you. Your standard of living could be better than the rest of the Arab world!

[shades of Apartheid South Africa]

"Israel was no threat to them; but it was intolerable that the despised Jews should dare to have a state of own, of any size, anywhere, under any conditions. That is the root of the problem."

Certainly that is the root of the whole problem. Why should Jews have a state and why should it be imposed on Palestinian (Arab) lands? Bible stories?

The Arabs did not create the Holocaust, the Arabs did not create the pogroms, nor the *Inquisition, so why are the Arabs made to pay for the deeds of others?

*The Arabs suffered more persecution than the Jews did in the Spanish Inquisition but you will rarely read that in the "scholarly" works of our historians. Why? Conflicts with the stories needed to generate sympathy and funds for the colony of Israel. The Inquisition has become another "Jewish only" persecution story.
