I just said that it doesn't matter if I like Jews at all, any more than it matters if I like Koreans when it comes to the actions of North Korea. If you really want to know, yes, I think Israel has a right to exist, yes Jews can have their own fucking country. The problem is that Israel has pretty systematically pissed off every ally it has in some fashion so that now it is still surrounded but a lot of very pissed-off arab neighbours, with no-one at its side but an increasibly bankrupt America. It doesn't matter who peoples Israel, they could be Jews, Christians, muslims, atheists or little green men from outer space. Historically speaking when you have one small country surrounded by a lot of enemies and an increasinly shrinking number of allies, THIS IS BAD!
