True... there were anti-western groups back in the 1700s and have been to this day, but why feed the fire with more wood? In this case; petrol soaked wood. And the western world has suffered because of it! 9/11, Madrid, London ...? The Islamic hate against the west have never been as big as it is now.

The necessity of having a Jewish state? No religious people has the right for their own state. It's like we're treating Israel like the US is treating the native americans... they get their own land and then they can do as they like ... only difference is that the native americans actually lived in america before the white man, but Israel and the Jews has no historic record of having more right over that land than anyone else. The old testament isn't worth a penny as a source for history. And another thing: You can't put one religion above others and say that this people deserve this land more than others, and then push those who live there aside for the jews to settle down..?
Don't get me wrong, I have every sympathy for the jews and their history. I don't wanna sound like some religion-hating soab, but I just don't think making Israel was a good idea. I believe there could've been better ways of handling the situation.
And sry, I don't want to drag your country through the mud. I have nothing against America or americans. I admire USA actually, but it's a fact that your government acts like they're world police and stick their nose in everybody's business, and defends Israel at any costs, careless of what the rest of the world thinks. If US had supported UN and pressured Israel to tear down the wall and move back the borders to the original UN plan, then perhaps we could have a more peaceful situation down there. I've said it before, and I say it again; I wish Sharon could've finished his work. You can say whatever you like about that guy, but I think he was actually trying to fix things at the end of his career. And even if he was an asshole at times the new guy now is much worse
