The Daily Star ran an editorial under the above headline on 2 June, 2010. Israel as a state was not born naturally. Some Western powers, the UK and the US fathered this state to rehabilitate some Jews who were left over after Hitler's inhuman annihilation drive during the Second World War. They chose their new homeland in Palestine firstly because their Prophet was born there and secondly they found no other place in the world friendly to accept the Jews. The 1950-1966 border is their original state area. With the help of West, especially the US, Israel occupied most of Palestine including some areas of Egypt and Syria and Jordan. Although, the Arabs have oil wealth they could not help the Palestinian Muslims due to absence of unity and their dependency on the West. They are in fact stooges of their oil lifters and protectors as kings. The US and West built up Israel as a military power to keep Arabs under control and keep their oil flow running unhindered. Inciting war between Arab-Israel or Arab-Arab is their business tactic to sell arms among the warring parties and make huge profits for the their state and top leaders. George W. Bush's recent occupation of Iraq on false pretext is one of such tactics. Bin Laden is W. Bush's family friend and his father was a business partner of Nazis. So, I do not blame Israel for anything and everything that happens in ME. It is the act of the main players who want this trouble spot to remain troubled all the time. Had the West and US wanted a peaceful ME, they could have got it 60 years ago.
