Its rejection by the Arab leaders and the soon to follow war seem to have doomed peace in this region from the beginning.<br /><br />I have never accepted the quote-unquote justification for the creation of the Israeli state. It seems to have been primarily for religious reasons and based on feeling of guilt imposed on the Allies by the 'Jewish victims'.<br /><br />However, at the same time I have no patience for the more radical leaders and groups that publicly refuse to say Israel without also adding obliteration. With the exceptions of Iran/Persia, Turkey, Egypt, and perhaps Yemen how many of the countries existed prior to WWI?<br />Under the Ottoman Empire weren't most of the countries provinces?IgnorantInfidelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13850203417115215449noreply@blogger.com
