Israel follows the example of another country’s actions. This other country burnt one enemy’s country to the ground and totally destroyed another’s very existence, slaughtering the armies of both.
Then that country turned around and assisted and helped finance the rebuilding of both once bitter enemies. Food, supplies, medicine, technical help all flowed to people once the targets of the largest military in history.
That country was the United States of America. Often we lead the way.
The Muslim in Syria know what to say to get what they need. Always remember than a moderate Muslim is one who supports violent Muslims. By Muhammad’s law a portion of their zakat (think Muslim version of tithing) has to go to jihad.
