The politicians and civil servants who sat down after WW2 and created states by drawing lines on maps are responsible for all this - just like the India/Pakistan shambles.

The lesson of this kind of thing is that politicians always mess up, and create terrorists who become leaders of their nations.

The fact that they even have it in their arsenal gives the lie to the claim at the time that it was used 'accidentally'.

Excellent answer, These weapons were supplied by their good old friends the USA. Strange how there was no big outcry when these weapons were used.

I wonder if the Arabs dropped some on Israel people would be so lost for words.

I think it is about time that we recognised that the major reason for the existence of the state of Israel is collective western guilt about centuries of anti-Semitism, culminating in the Holocaust, and admitted that we expiated that guild by destroying the nation of Palestine. Of course the state of Palestine should be recognised.

I have listened to both Abbas and Netanyaho giving their long speeches to the UN. What they said made a lot of sense but it was what they didn't say that was more important because that is what is preventing any agreement.
1.The Arabs refusal to accept the state of Israel and the firing of thousands of rockets into Israel.
2. The continual building of Israeli settlements on disputed land.

If they both refuse to stop these two basic requirements there is little point in having any talks at all.

Half the UN delegates didn't even listen to the two speeches, which shows what a farce the UN is.
