I'm not saying it is pure good of Israel. Israel wants to survive. Israel was set up, largely as a result of the Holocaust. It was an insignificant piece of land, tiny, largely barren, without oil. If all the Arab lands were a football field, the land of Israel would be the size of a match box. The Palestinians are kept in poverty by their leaders, largely for selfish reasons. Arafat has taken an estimated billion dollars from aid intended for his people. The other OILogarchs have kept the "refugees" where they are rather than assimilate them so that they remain symbolically poverty stricken a reason to have a "common enemy," upon which to focus so that these OILogarchs and dictators can keep their tyrannical power. The Arabs have sufficient resources in land and in economic resources to settle this dispute. It has not been in their interests to do so and Israel is stuck defending itself against terror in its most cowardly nature. Israel has assimilated more refugees, Jews kicked out of Arab lands, deprived of livelihood and belongings and land, than the number of Palestinians who left Israel. The propagandists, who defend the cowardly terrorists, are clearly liars.
