As I have stated a couple of times in the past...the Arabs as a group of people, who are lead by a Theocracy and tribalism also do not want anyone in the world who is not born muslim to convert...They want the rest of the peoples in the world dead and the world to be run as it was a thousand years ago. Those people were smart and if not for the fact there was so much tribalistic hatred and distrust would still be running the world as it was before the Crusades. They knew the world was round and had libraries of up to a million books at a time when a large library in Europe would include as many as a dozen or so books no one could read. Also remember that the Jews are, like the Arabs, a society you are born into. You can practice the Jewish religion but you really aren't a jew unless born one. This being said I feel that backing the Jewish state in the middle east has cost us much monetarily as well as the hatred and distrust of over a billion arabs. I personally feel that if the arabs ever decide to put their differences aside and fight together, that the jews will start a nuclear war that will envelope the entire world. That would be their last defense. There is, in effect no discernable difference between the jews and the arabs(both semetic people) other than the fact of religion. And a lot of the reason for the strife going on now is to take the heat off the Iranians for a while as they continue to develop their atomic arsenal
