Nonetheless, had European Jews come the Levant in 1948 with ploughshares and a cooperative spirit instead of guns and terror, the whole scenario might look different today.

And had they been greeted with something other than guns and terror, both in 1948 and in the decades before then, the whole scenario might look different today as well.

Or had the plan of Partition been accepted, painful and disruptive as it would have been in that region as it was in India, the scenario might look different as well.

Alas, that's not what happened.
