Israel is a right-wing expansionist state.

Ask a Mexican; the USA is also an expansionist nation.

Palestine ... should be allowed to peacefully exist as a normal state.

But they don't. They have had groups like Hamas and Hezballah backed by nations like Iran regularly attacking Israel ever since Israel was established.

Another Islamic relationship to be remembered:

Global population growth means more people everywhere. In the middle east, that means more Jews and more Muslims. Religions beating one another's heads to pulp over the right of the Jews to have a nation and defend their very existence. Ain't religion grand?

That being the case, on a planet that has shrunk to the speed of a hypersonic nuclear missile, whattya gonna do?

If you aren't a Muslim you might chafe under the yolk of a Mullah or Islamic Militia over there, much as we are chafing against the right-wing white Christian nationalists.

Sucks having to take sides, but when the missiles start raining down, whattya gonna do?
