"We Will Never Accept the Jewish State"

(Townhall) Will Alexander - So much of the picture being painted by Israel's critics is either one-sided, distorted or outright fiction. It's as if they suddenly walked in on a fight and saw a big guy beating up a little guy and took sides with the little guy because, well - he's little. But you get a different picture when you find out that the little guy picked the fight, then threatened to kill the big guy and take his land. No matter what the big guy does, the threats come year after year, with no end in sight. Eventually, the big guy has no choice; he has to protect himself from this crazy little man. That's what Israel was doing when the critics of the world walked in and saw the little guy getting beat up. Israel's been protecting itself from Arab belligerency for decades. Because of the constant attacks, Arabs who want to see Israel thrown off the map have no more a right to disputed territories than Mexico does to Arizona. They pick the fights, lose the wars, and expect tiny Israel to give up captured territories that provide a buffer of security from certain death. Palestinians have an ingrained hatred for the Jewish state. If it were just about independence, they could've formed a state in '48 and worked the kinks out over time.
