I enjoy some of your posts, LL. Be advised: I'm just engaging in a little "historical comparison" here, 1938 Czechoslovakia vis-a-vis Modern Israel.
Naturally, As a Calvinist, I am exempt from the attempt to claim any People of Man as being some kind of "perfect angels". The first Point of Calvinism is total depravity -- good works in the sight of Man, are filthy rags by comparison to the holiness of God.
In other words, Nobody's perfect. The Czechs and Israelis included. I will be the first to affirm that -- yes, including the Israelis, who are mortal men as are we all. The Israelis have been guilty of certain War Crimes, I don't care what any of my Zionist brethren say.
The point is, everyone concerned -- everyone -- would have been better off if Chamberlain would've told the Jew-hating Nazis to take a long walk off a short pier, than to try to accomodate the Nazis by carving off the Sudetenland from little Czechoslovakia. God Willing, we could've at least attempted to reform the Czechs in their treatment of Sudeten Germans, rather than sacrificing their territory to the Murderers of the Earth, the Hitlerite Nazis.
IMHO, the same applies today. I would gladly see Israel part with the Gaza Strip; for it includes 1.3 million Arab Palestinians and less than 6,000 Jews. Israeli occupation of Gaza does nobody any good whatsoever... let them be Independent; let Philistia be Philistia.
But as concerns Judea and Samaria (the "West Bank"), let us not carve off this territory and give it to the murderers of the earth -- the PLO, Hamas, Islamic Jihad, the PFLP, and all their assorted blood-suckers. They are reprobates and should be killed, not feted at State dinners.
Give Gaza its own Statehood. The Pallies want "Independence"; Let them try it there, no other solution makes sense!! As concerns Judea and Samaria though, some 200,000 Jews already live there, and I am not in the mood for another Holocaust. Let Israel keep her "West Bank", and reform Israel, or at least make the attempt.
We have already once tried the path of sacrificing the Sudetenland to the murderers of the earth; it did not work so well last time.
