They have never threatened anyone with it like Iran.. What if you are such a small country living, legitimately in an area when people want to distroy you, wouldn't you arm yourself too, to the teeth? If youed lived in a neighborhood where everytime you walked out of the house someone wanted to bomb you or shoot at you.. Would you not arm yourself?? Yes you would.. to protect your family .. and if they hurt your family would you torn the other cheek or go after them and make them sorry for the violence they started..and continue. If they would only stop the violence and let peace develop they would live a happier life and thrive and the neighbors would help rebuild and educate and live in harmony.. Do you think the Palestinians can be able to do that?? True Rachel, no one denies that Israel is a Nuclear power , but what has that to do with what you were bringing up before?

True they absolutely planned the migration BACK to their homeland Israel where they lived many thousands of years ago. They needed a safe place in the world where they could develop a Jewish state. Always wanting peace with the rest of the world. Impossible to understand my the Muslim states because of Jealousy and anger with their "cousins" of centuries ago. If Israel were land grabbers as the Palestinians want you to believe, and wanted more land, then they would have kept all the land they got from Egypt all the way to the Suez, but gave it all back. They are not greedy just a modern country living in and among archaic surfdoms, "governements" and stiffling sociologic policies. The Israelis have developed into a modern, successful economic, democratic country. Of which Much envy exists, which is shown in your comments. Turmoil and conflect develop when you live next to a government who sponsors and participates in Terrorism all over the world. Not just in Israel. Also a country who is the main sponsor of terrorism, Iran, Palestinians closest alley and support, which vows to destroy Israel. Not true at all.

They need all the help from other democratic countries. They are not an occupying country which is a farse and perpertrated by the Palesinians who had no "territory beyond their own homes they volontarily left to drive the Israelis into the sea in 1948. In 1967 the land they got in the westbank for the most part was governed by Jordan. If anyone could hold claim to that land it might be them. Certainly not by the Palestinian Territory inhabitants called now "The Palestinian People." Trying to rewrite history is a ploy by the "Palestinian People: who have managed to convince most of the world of that situation called "Occupiers" which is not correct. They are not occupying anythong the then Palestinian refugies had ownership to. As a matter of fact the Jordanians had so much trouble with the migrating Palistinian refugies entering their country they pushed them out and into Lebanan who had trouble as well. People remember history.. not what the "Palestinian People" what you to believe. The Israelis are battleing an Enemy who will go to extrordinary means to destroy that country.

Israel is armed to ite teeth and the Nuclear facility that it has is much stronger than that of Iran built with active support first from France and later from US. Even if US and EU countries are successful for Arms Embargo to both sides; Israel has so much supplies that it can continue fighting for more than a year without any replenishments. Israel was forcibly established within the region but centuries ago they all lived peacefully until UK,France and latern US made their political agendas to dominate for oil and then it thought the bast base would be Israel. Check it in the History records of Israel estblishment and you will get full details including building of Nuclear facility first in the region. Rachel,

Furthermore, Arabs are Semites too. Therefore, your argument is completely laughable. Sincerely, Jillian Dear Rachel,

The attempt by Greek bloggers to stop a huge shipment of arms routed illegally and covertly through their country's soil to a country at the time <a href="http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/middle_east/7831424.stm" rel="nofollow">arguably committing war crimes</a> or my writing an article about it? I'm sorry, but it's gonna take you a bit more work to hitchhike logic here. Rachel, pray tell, exactly what is “antisemitism”?

It is surrounded by hostile enemy nations, some of them rogue and potentially developing nuclear weapons. Plus the Palestinians deliver weapons deeper into Israeli citizen territory every day. This is outright antisemitism and should not be applauded. Why should Israel not have the right to defend itself?
