Israel was created because of the inability of christians AND muslims to stop slaughtering jews, a point which, after the mass murder and pogroms in the arab nations after 1948 should be obvious to everyone.
Really ? is that why Israel was created ? The slaughter happened in Europe and as you said the rest AFTER 1948. Don't you thnk that creation of Israel on Arab land had anythng to do with the persecution of Jews in Arab countries ?
If you want my honest opinion ? the persecution of Jews in Arab countries after the creation of Israel was one of the dummest things that the Arabs ever did. If they had been smart, they would have done everything to treat the Arab Jews even better than the rest of the population in order for them to stay. By making them flee, they only served Israel. Well done.
Israel is democratic, its just not muslim majority and under muslim control, so then to a muslim fascist it is not "democratic."
I have a suggestion, you arab muslims fix your own houses first, then worry about tiny israel.
There is an arab muslim saying: "don't worry about the splinter in my eye when there is a whole forest sticking out of yours."
And another one: "an egg can break on the floor of someone's kitchen in damascus - and it is still somehow Israel's fault."
Its the same old pathetic narrow-mindedness that ensures the world will continue to advance, while the arab world falls further and further behind.
But you keep pushing that line, sister, it guarantees the status quo for another 1,000 years...
Muslims are Fascist ? that's new to me, please explain .
Israel a democracy ? let's see
Infant mortality among Arab citizens of Israel is two and a half times higher than it is among Jewish citizens. One out of two Israeli Arab college graduates is out of work. Arabs make up 6 percent of the civil service, though they are over 15 percent of the country's citizens. National testing shows Arab fifth- and eighth-graders trailing Jewish pupils in math, science, and English, and the gap is widening. That's not surprising, since Arabs suffer much more poverty, and the national education system spends considerably more per Jewish child than per Arab child.
This a just a selection from the last few weeks' news reports on the ethnic gap in Israel.....
The standard line of the country's boosters is that it's the only democracy in the Middle East. The most concise criticism is that it is an "ethnocracy," as Israeli political geographer Oren Yiftachel argues in his 2006 book of that name. An ethnocracy, he explains, is a regime promoting "the expansion of the dominant group in contested territory … while maintaining a democratic façade." Looking at this debate in light of two new books by Israeli scholars and of a faded and remarkable document that I've just read in the Israel State Archives, it seems both sides could be right.

By the way, I'm neither an Arab nor a Muslim (even though I carry an Arab passport)
