I have been in many places in the ME, sometimes with, sometimes without a passport if you get what I mean. What we are witnessing is not the Pals survival struggle. They will survive as part of the Arab umma, whatever happens. What is in doubt is the survival of the Jewish people. If Israel goes down, so will they and 3k years of history with it.

I write not for the hatefilled pro Pal bigots on this site. There is no point. If I say black, they automatically just say white. I write for those with an open mind who may just for once be prepared to see things from a Jewish/Israeli perspective. Just try and make a leap of imagination and see things from a different perspective, from our perspective, even though you can't understand our language or culture and know very little about them...Jews and Israelis are not the monsters we are made out to be.
