What this article demonstrates is that the Arabs cannot bring themselves to live in peace with Israel, whether it is the original and small Israel, or a somewhat enlarged Israel. The idea of the Jews owning as much as 10 square feet in the Middle East is too much for them to deal with. The simple fact is that you cannot deal with someone who’s only position is that you must die. The lesson to be learned is that there can be no compromise with the Arabs whatsoever. Perhaps with certain countries, such as Egypt and Jordan, who have been brought into the western orbit, and benefit greatly from relative peace with Israel, and perhaps the Saudis who see a bigger and common enemy in Iran than in Israel, but otherwise it is pretty hopeless. Israel should take whatever territory it needs to defend its population, and not make any apologies for doing so.
Amen.
