1) Just like there are pro-Israel lobbyists and publicists, so too there is also a vast machinery of anti-Israel ranting and rhetoric. Many anti-Israel media twist the facts in their reporting, which is part of the reason why the U.N. and E.U. are biased against Israel. For example, when a terrorist is shot while hurling a firebomb at Israelis, biased sources will report the shooting only. When this kind of reporting happens often enough, some people get the notion that Israel is pure evil.
2) One facet of the desire to wipe out Israel, is plain anti-Semitism.
3) Harm that has been done to the Palestinians, is used as a reason for hatred of Israel, even though some of the harm is caused by people who are not Israelis. For example, some Middle Eastern countries are vastly wealthy, but studiously refrain from giving enough assistance to the Palestinians to improve their livelihood. Another example is Iran's support of terrorism, which creates a cycle in which Israel is forced to defend itself, and the defensive measures are used as an excuse for still more attacks.
4) Anything in Israel's favor is not reported by by biased media. People are unaware that tens of thousands of Palestinians are employed by Israelis. Israel supplies Gaza with electricity and built a hospital there. It purchases thousands of tons of Palestinian agricultural and other products, thus infusing them with much-needed currency. There are tens of other examples.
Israel's enemies could lay down their weapons, and ask us directly: "Why hasn't Israel returned to its pre-1967 borders"? Then we could carry on a serious debate. And that issue is not one-sided.
- When Israel's neighbors have pursued a policy of discussion and debate, solutions have been implemented, not only argued over. Israel pulled out of Sinai and gained a peace treaty with Egypt. A very cold peace, but a strategic and useful one.
- Israel made border-adjustments and water concessions to Jordan, and gained another cold but useful peace.
- The same process brought a treaty in May 17, 1983 with Lebanon but it was blocked by Syria.
- The same process was almost completed by Rabin and Arafat in 2000. They were at the treaty-signing table, having hammered out all the details. Then Yasser Arafat pulled out of the ceremony, and initiated the Second Intifada, loading the "Karin A" ship with tons of weapons for terror-use.

Further comments:
Israel is portrayed as an evil country by some of the media, by many U.N. and E.U. statements, and by much of the Arab and Muslim world.This despite the fact that Israel has better human-rights* than any other country in the region.
Israel has been boycotted for decades*, and its citizens have suffered from the conflict*, yet it continues to be optimistic and it enjoys God's protection*.
The presence of the Jews in Israel is questioned by some, despite the Jews' history* in and from Israel, and despite God's clear words* bestowing Israel to them. Words which are recognized by Islam as well*.
Those who condemn and hate Israel for its side in the conflict*, fail to apportion blame to Israel's enemies*, no matter how heinous their actions.

Do Jews want to kill Arabs?
Answer 1Jews as a race or religion have no desire to kill Arabs or any other race. They do, however, want security. As do we all.Answer 2The underlying supposition of this question, namely that Jews might want to kill Arabs, is unfounded and inaccurate. Jews want nothing more than to live in peace with Arabs as can be exemplified by the treatment of the Israeli Arab population of 1.5 million people who live in Israel. When they are polled about leaving Israel and moving to a future Palestinian State, they overwhelmingly refuse the idea and choose that they would rather stay in Israel.But the issue remains: some Jews have certainly killed Arabs in the last 70 years. Why do such events occur? The reason these events occurred (that is to say the Arab-Israeli Wars of 1948-1982) is because of attacks and belligerent behavior by Arab governments and militias trying militarily to remove Israel or lessen the amount of territory under its control.Concerning the recent violence in the Gaza Strip, Hamas has adopted a similar posture and Israel finds it incumbent for security reasons to blockade Gaza in order to keep terrorists from attacking Israeli civilians. The objective of Operation Cast Lead was to remove Hamas' capability to launch rockets into Israel. As concerns the West Bank, there are some Religious Zionists who (against Israeli Law) murder Arabs because of their belief that Israel should have no quarter for Arabs. In much of the West Bank, there is a tense occupation, but few people actually die from the occupation.
