The same could have been said about Lebanon, before Arafat and the Palestinians destroyed it, with the help of Syria.

World wide propaganda against the Christians of Lebanon was the same then, as it is now against the Jews of Israel. Lebanon, like Israel, was a very prosperous country with a high level of education. In fact, Lebanon had the highest level of educated people among Arab countries, and a high standard of living.

Palestinian terrorism against the Lebanese Christians, backed by Syria, Iran and Libya finally succeeded and ousted the Lebanese Christians from power and into poverty and virtual imprisonment within Lebanon. There were many Palestinian atrocities against the Lebanese Christians. The Palestinians/Arabs/Muslims have turned Lebanon into a corrupt, ruthless dump.

Does that sound the same as what the Palestinians/Muslims/Arabs are trying to do to Israel?

Just keep in mind that Israel has as PM a man convicted of war crimes. As long as he is in power that nation has no right to be considered a moral beacon in he ME.
Also if you look at their history their get tough tactics on terrorism hasn't done too much to help them live in peace. When W caves in to Sharon on settlements we aren't getting too far in winning hearts and minds of rational muslims in the world.
