I dislike Israel for always playing the crappy "oh we're victims" card all the time and evoking something that happened 60 years ago when they're doing the same to palestinians.
Allow me to voice my opinion then as well: you've been brainwashed. If you think that today, in 2012, all the neighbours of Israel still want their heads, you've been brainwashed. First, Jordan, except the hatred at start and declarations after against Israel, in recent past I don't remember them even saying they want your head anymore, I only remember them saying they want a Palestine, which is a resonable stance.
Then, Egypt, after you made peace with them, they recognized Israel and they were ok since 1980's or so. Now they even changed leadership of their dictator. For now not sure with what, but I haven't heard them saying they want your head either.
Then, Palestine, yes, I consider them a country, one run by two regimes though. The one in the Gaza strip does want to destroy Israel... since Israel keeps them fenced in a desert area and shoots on ships trying to get food in there, like they shot in the Turkey ships. It doesn't mean their stance with terrorists is fully justified, but it is understandable. Then you have the other part of Palestine, the West Bank, that's been trying to negociate with Palestine for years, and I remember it going like this:
Palestine: " well maybe we can get to an agreement... hey, wait, what's with those military camps in our lands?"
Israel: "they're there to protect our citzens from terrorists in your country"
Palestine: "well fine... that's not very nice though since it's our... hold one, what are those settlements near those military camps?"
Israel: " well those militaries need to live somewhere, don't they? By the way, we're building more military camps further inland to protect the new settlements"
Palestine: "what? no, we're retreating from negociations!"
Israel (to other nations): "See, I told you we can't reach an agreement with terrorists!"
Then we have Syria... which everyone blames. So it's not so surprising a dictator that kills his own people also wants to kill people of neighbouring countries.
And last, Lebanon, which you bombed until you grew bored, if you think that's a threat you're blind.
And a few countries away (like 3 or so) there's Iran, who has a crazy prime-minister (since guess what, president at them = prime-minister in our countries, their true leader is not that crazy guy but rather Komeni or what's his name, a guy, who even though is not the brightest guy in the world, can still understand war over religion is dumb).
Actually hold on, a few months ago the french president said something that romanians are all criminals and crap. So I can assume he's meaning to exterminate us... and France has nukes! We have to attack France! Does that sound stupid? Well it is, but it's same situation Iran and Israel are in.
