Some might be 'anti-Israel' but no one is 'pro-Arab-Palestinian'

Often one might be asked to be put in a decisive vote, if he or she is 'pro Israel' or pro-"Palestinian".

Well, here is a sketch of structure of today's international politics: It is no secret, many Europeans in their political & even power competition with the US play with the middle east as a battle field, not only did it play a role in objecting the operation in Iraq, (which ultimately had an effect on world opinion in general against the war & partly in it's failure), but even in the Arab-Israeli conflict, the trend to hasty blindly "condemn" Israel is "in style", no matter what the fats are on the ground - of course.

The UN is the biggest open "secret" of a body occupied almost entirely by Arab nations & ot's oil power. Then you have the Arab nations themselves. All of the above you would expect to be automatically 'pro-Palestinian-Arabs', but no, not really, the same as 'anti-Israel' is not necessarily 'pro-Palestinian'.

Not one nation has ever really helped the 'Arab -Palestinians, let alone non Arab nations, but even the Arab "brothers" themselves actually have a double interest in NOT changing the 'Palestinian' condition/situation:
A) It serves them as a great diversion from it's own dictatorial problems & friction, aggrevation from it's own population.

B) A wonderful excuse in a weapon against the west with a story of "grievances with the west". Let's put it this way if even one Arab nation had ANY interest in helping their Arab-Palestinian brothers (not just political aid for terrorists & any other self inflicting phenomenon in their cult(ure) or a few symbolic pennies here & there for their economy), they would have had much a long, long time ago, not only a state. Because 'anti-Israel' has a lot of resources and motivations, but there just ISN'T any pro-"Palestinian"'.

Absolutely true. Yesterday a libtard went ballistic over my comment that "I wouldn't blame Israel for making a nuclear threat." She went off on some rant about killing Iranian civilians to get ahmadinejhad. She simply ignores the fact that ahmadinejhad consistently threatens to kill every last Israeli.

The thing is, these people are antisemitic and are unwilling to admit it to themselves. I know how they think because I used to be one of them. I condoned my antisemitism by convincing myself that I wasn't anti Jewish, I was anti Israel. It was a really convenient excuse but it fell apart in a hurry on 9/11.
