In 1963, the Arab League decided to introduce a new weapon in its war against Israel — the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO). The PLO formally came into being during a 1964 meeting of the first Palestinian Congress. Shortly thereafter, the group began to splinter into various factions. Ultimately, the largest faction, Fatah, would come to dominate the organization, and its leader, Yasser Arafat, would become the PLO chairman and most visible symbol. All the groups adhered to a set of principles laid out in the Palestine National Charter, which called for Israel's destruction.

One thing about those tough Arab armies,they know how to run and they know how to surrender. I guess when they are blowing up woman and children thats when they get tough. One example is the Gulf war,they couldn't surrender fast enough. The arab countries are made out to be strong,but one little country like Isrel can put them in their place.

I must disagree...the cold war was won because we outspent the russions basically destroying there economy trying to keep up....My opinion on Israel is a strong one...I am by no means anti semetic but Irael is no better then the USA and its "manifest destiny" and slaughter of natives .... A long time ago a book was written...this book was written by the very people that the book claims is "the one blessed tribe of God" God gave them Israel and so they have the right to destroy whoever lives there... Look at it this way..Ive just found a book..a great book just so happends this book says the Lord gives me "and only me" the right to your land..your food..your livleyhood..oh and i also want to control your countries banking system and issue my money"I will charge outrageous intrest and reposses with wild abandon...nobody would be mad at me right?Youd buy that book and form your life around it right?

This is what I have felt since the start of this whole Iran/Israeli/USA deal. If Israel who is the initial country waging these threats to destroy Irans nuclear attempts , acieved its nuclears goals through subtrefuge, then who are they to dictate or threatan someone else who is going through legal channels to gain the knowledge and equipment to start a nuclear program. They are way out of line for making any sort of threat and the USA should not be backing her.Even if Iran was doing what Israel is accusing her of, going by Israels defense for the manufacture and use of WOMD , then Iran too should be able to use the same type of excuse for defenses. All in all Israel will never give up her ace in the hole. They give every excuse for WOMD, just as they do for a lot of other things. Maybe if they freed the palestinian people after almost a 1/2 a century and kept their Mossad out of other peoples affairs they would find they didn't need WOMD's. There are people in Israel who are extremely bitter over past wars with arabs, and would like the chance to spill arab blood in revenge, so saying that Israel is stable, peaceful and responsible enough to be able to keep and hold WOMD's is debateable. All it would take is one renegade Israeli general to launch an attack. There is no stable or logical government in the ME that should have WOMD period. Jordan is right.
