Security is what Israel really wants. Period.
If Israel can be certain it will no longer be attacked the Jewish/Arab wars will end in the Middle East.
I am a Palestinian Muslim living in Ireland and I must speak out against the war against Israel which is bringing war down on Muslim heads in return.
Take another look the map of Israel.
It is a tiny sliver of land been the Mediterranean and the Jordan River.
If Israel was not militarily powerful holding back the enormous miltary forces of Egypt, Syria, Jordan and Saudi Arabia would be simply impossible. In a matter of hours Israel would be invaded if armies broke through the defences of the Golan Heights or crossed the Jordan River valley, encompassing the Dead Sea, the lowest point on earth, or swept through the Negev and surrounded Al Quds and Tel Aviv from three sides.
In 1948, 1956, 1967 and 1973 any suggestions that Arab armies could achieve this apparently simple feat were refuted again and again when Israel blunted their assaults and routed them.
Since then the Black September, PLO, Fatah, Islamic Jihad, Hamas, Hezbollah, the Al Asqa Martys and the PFLP trained and funded by the Soviets before they collapsed, Iran, Iraq, Libya, Saudi Arabia and other Middle Eastern regimes used terrorist attacks to try and force the Jews to vacate Israel.
The negative result was forcing Israel's policy of continuing to occupy the West Bank Gaza, Golan Heights and Southern Lebanon as buffer areas to keep back the Arab armies outside and to crack down on the terror groups within who were lauching attacks inside Israel. Israel also allowed Jewish settlements to explode like mushrooms to be established protected by Israeli troops to solidify their control and also built nuclear weapons to insure nobody was stupid enough to launch a ground invasion of Israel ever again.
That is why I believe that if Muslims can recognise the right of the state of Israel to exist and stop attacking the Jews, then the Israelis will pull out of Gaza, the West Bank, the Golan Heights and Souther Lebanon for good and even allow many refugees to return to land they once lived on within Israel.
At present Hezbollah are firing hundreds of rockets into Israel everyday while Hamas fire their homemade rockets from Gaza in the south and the suicide bombers attack from the West Bank.
The oppression of the Palestinians is immense but it only exists because Palestinians will not make peace with Israel by abandoning violence for good.
But many Muslims I know especially Palestinians like myself still dream of driving the Jews into the sea and destroying Israel for good.
As long as Muslims continued to hate the Jews so then the Israelis will always behave as if they are under siege. Because they ARE under siege!
They respond by putting us Muslims under siege in return.
Why is it any wonder we do not have the same prosperity as Ireland does or England or France or even the US? Everywhere else in the world is prospering while the Middle East is stricken with poverty even though we sell THEM our oil? Not because the infidels are thieves but because we are fools.
If Muslims simply stop attacking Israel and make peace then Israel will have no reason to occupy the West Bank, Gaza, Lebanon and anywhere else.
If they can be assured that they will be save within the 1967 borders then they will no longer make war with Muslims, they will give us access to Al Quds and the Al Asqa. They will allow Palestinians to return even into Israel itself just as Muslims and Druze live freely there already.
Israel is just a tiny sliver of land but the land of Islam is huge. Give the Jews what they want - their home- and let Muslims live in peace.
