That seems a bit overstated. I think it’s actually a Greta Garbo thing: they just vant to be left alone.
Who just wants to be left alone? Jews?
Well… if they were (and did) planning to set up shop in a highly religious region like the Middle East, then there is no chance they would ever be left alone.
Disregarding Jewish People (no disrespect implied here), Israel is an extension of USA/Western values as well as a means to service economic/military interests. This is just another reason why Arabs hate Israel and therefore Jewish people.
No, no disrespect at all. Other than the (unintentional?) misuse of “disregarding” instead of “regarding.” And if you lived someplace where missiles were continually aimed and fired at you - disregarding their own children because they hide behind them - you’d make alliances with anyone who has your best interests at heart.
You could literally say the same thing about Civilians in Iraq back in 2003… but do you care about them just as much as Jewish people in Israel?
Are the Iraqis attacking Jews in Israel?
I mean… in a sense… yeah kinda lol
There are Iran backed militants attacking Israel from Iraq, but Iraq hasn’t attacked Israel since the first Gulf War, I believe.
The last thing that country wants is us to be there more than we have been.
In that case no. LOL!
Jews have been in that region since the 9th century. Not sure what “setting up shop” would imply but if I wanted to have a homeland I’d probably pick a place my people have been as an established religion for nearly 3800 years.
