    What could possibly have gone wrong?
    I suppose that could have been even worse, although a Jewish homeland surrounded by Islamic Arab countries wasn't the greatest idea either.

    Fact is, I don't suppose anywhere would have welcomed a Jewish homeland in their backyard, even the yanks.

      To be fair its the Arab neighbours who are the ones who have been shelling the Israelis civilians for decades. Not sure the Americans or Africans would do that.

      Remember Israel have been out of Gaza since 2005 so they are not occupiers. Also Hamas (a banned terrorist organisation) have refused every attempt at negotiation.
      Hamas have been officially in charge of Gaza since 2007, Israel just manned the fence borders along one side to avoid the psychotic nutters getting into Israel like in Oct 7th. The Gazans do have a border with Egypt who have blocked it as well because they don't like their murderous fellow Muslims much.

        Lebanon was majority Christian at the time.
        Down with racism. Long live miscegenation!

          Considering there are more Jews in the USA than in Israel and that as most of them live in New York I would suggest that the Yanks do in fact have a Jewish homeland in their backyard.

            Fast forward to 2050:

            UK was a majority Christian once upon a time!

              Maybe Israel should consider moving. That's what we ending up doing once when we had really bad neighbours. Reasoning/bargaining with them didn't work. Perhaps we should have tried the Israeli approach though.

                There’s a lot of “Christians” in the UK who are more interested in following the teachings of the Daily Mail more than the teachings of Christ.
                …Maybe we ain’t that young anymore

                  Why fast forward? The last census showed that Christians were not in the majority.

                      I was being generous albeit knowing it will happen much sooner
