Sorry that your nap was disturbed Octavio

You wrote "we see Israeli policies as counter-productive. The pursuit of war in Lebanon only pushed us towards the Clash of Civilizations, and we Europeans are not happy about that."

Europe has been passively slouching toward disaster for decades, and yet you seem to want to believe that the Israelis are the cause of the problem.

The Muslims are the cause of the problem, Octavio. They have been seeking to conquer and/or convert the world since their Prophet told them that their God commanded them to do it. Sometimes they have been static, sometime they have been in retreat, and sometimes they have been on the advance.

Now is one of the times when Islam is on the advance, propelled by oil money and drawn by the moral weakness which has infected the West.

Arguably Europe owes a debt of gratitude to Israel for existing and thus enraging the bloodthirsty Muslims who woke you up before their quieter brethren could get numerous enough to cut your throats while you slept.
