Did I say I had a solution? But as James Baldwin said, "Not everything that is faced can be changed, but nothing can be changed until it is faced". Until we get honest about Israel as the imperialist project of the Western powers nothing can be done.

Where did you get this shit, Israel is an imperialist project by the Western powers. No wonder the universities are so screwed up.

The state of Israel started by Zionists, like Theodore Herzl, who bought up land from the Bedouins, made the desert bloom, cleaned up the garbage dump of the Arabs called Jerusalem (as Mark Twain described). The Arabs were shamed by the Jews, as that useless piece of desert lay fallow and empty except for Bedouins for thousands of years, and then in 1948, tried to take back by force what the Jews had paid for with money, they lost, but they kept coming back again and again, like morons, the insane in 1956, 1967, 1973, 2006 and Oct 7th. Driven and motivated by their religion to kill the Jews and drive them off what they consider is Arab land.

Who said the universities did this analysis?

Bankers and British created Israel out of Arab lands. All Jews could have home and live in peace with the Arabs. They never asked the Arabs of course. They just did it. Isn't a success is it.

Wrong Judith. You are showing your antisemitism and gullibility.

European Jews, under the leadership of Theodore Herzl in the 1920's, bought land from Bedouins. Desert that had been useless and fallow for thousands of years. Mark Twain visited Jerusalem and found it a garbage dump

Herzl's Jews,took the land that they bought, turned into a garden, cleaned up Jerusalem, and the Arabs were both embarrassed and envious, and attacked Israel no sooner than it became a state, as consequence Israel, in self defense, took land as a buffer, as was it's right.

Einstein said that a sign of insantity is doing the same thing over and over expecting different results.

So the insane Arabs came back in 1956,1967, 1973, 2006 and 2023, each time they lost, each time they also lost land. Israel occupied the Golan Heights, for self protection, it is high ground and it is from there that Syria has launched its aggressions.

The whole mess is of the Arabs own making, If they would have let the Jews have their own piece of land, their wouldn't be this problem.

But they can't because it conflicts with a sacred edict, to obliterate the Jews, haddith of al Bukhari.

It seems you have no knowledge of history prior to 1948. And your knowledge of history after 1948 ignores the fact that Israel is a secular democracy, not a fascist theocracy relying on terrorism as its sole form of foreign policy and subjugation as its core domestic policy. This is not to suggest that Israel hasn't made mistakes or that its present leader is sane or that Israel is secular enough.
