Middle East Neighbirhood Not Israel's Worst Issue

Submitted by M Tovey (United States), Jul 26, 2021 at 16:51

If Israel had to contend only with the 'Palestinian' Authority, 'Palestinian' objectionism, tribal disputes from distant cousins of another mother, these are mere herdsmens' disputes over speckled versus clear coated animals in a long line of issues that could likely be resolved over some coffee in a tent.
But therein lays the rub; these are not local issues, but interferences from overt ultra-national contentions of empire that date millennia ago and are issues not going away until the full repatriation of Jewish promises are completed and the truly illicit contenders put in their respective places.
