Israeli Jews, Yazidis, And The War Against Israel

      The simplistic narrative of Palestinian victimhood and Israeli oppression does not serve the interests of Palestinians or Israelis. Israeli Jews are a small minority in a sea of Arabs, which includes the Arabs now called Palestinians. Israelis have only their one small country. Without it, their fate will be no different than the Yazidi people. Yazidis, a religious minority, were slaughtered by Muslim fanatics. Their menfolk were murdered, their young women and girls were taken as sex slaves. Their male children were kidnapped to be turned into brainwashed Islamic jihadists. The Yazidis are but one cruel example of the too often plight of non Muslim religious minorities living in Muslim majority lands.
       The propaganda that Israel is nothing but a European colonial state is nothing but that - propaganda. It ignores the majority population of Israel that originated from middle east and North African Muslim majority nations, where the Jews were expelled and sent fleeing for their lives to the new state of Israel. It ignores the Jewish connection to the land of Israel for thousands of years. It ignores the fact that Jews have never stopped living in what is now Israel.
       The apartheid label is best applied to those Arab and Muslim majority nations that expelled their Jews. Where are their Jews? Most are in Israel. If they return to Arab Muslim and other Muslim majority lands, they will be slaughtered. They know that, and so do millions of Jew haters that would love to see another mass slaughter of the Jews.
        Jews and Palestinian Arabs are stuck with each other on one small piece of land. Every effort to promote coexistence, mutual acceptance, peace and tolerance must be lauded. Every effort to fan war, hate, killing, conflict and death should be opposed by people of any faith that have a shred of decency.
        Many people want Israel destroyed. That, and the belief of many Muslims that only Muslims can be allowed to rule, condemns the region to endless war. Islamists and their apologists, of which there are many (they will support anything the Islamists and jihadists do as long as they are killing or trying to kill Jews) have ensured  blood keeps flowing on all sides.
