re: Most of the Arab countries don't recognize Israel's existance, so there is no such thing as an Israeli to them.

they don't recognize Israel but they do know what Israeli is.


Your point being?

Most Arab counties want to reclaim the land (that they think rightfully theirs) which the Israelis took from them at the close of WW2 and in the 1967 war. Most Israelis want to hold the land that they took post WW2, and many Israelis want to hold the land they took in the 1967 war.

Neither side looks very good in that skirmish. I don't even want to get into it, because even this amazing thread aint going to solve that political quagmire. If you think Iraq is a mess, you haven't ever looked at the Israeli - Palestinian situation.

But it makes me think of George's integrity. Why does he support the idea of Iraq as a place where all religions should be free to be practiced equally, and support Israel as a Jewish state? Why shouldn't Israel be held to the same standard (blind to religion) as Iraq?

Likwise, Israel doesn't recognize Palestine but she does know what Palestinian is....
