What does Israel export besides citrus, olive oil, and produce?
I know she imports a lot of armaments financed and supplied by the US.
Therein the vulnerability to the US to our "allies".

The old Arab saying goes something like this, "If you're friends with my enemy, you are also my enemy."


Brains (education) and hard work. Like Japan. Japan has very few natural resources, is a huge consumer of oil, and has made it on the back of innovation which is just getting ready to bust open in today's world if only peace would break out.

Thats why the Sunnis and Shiites kill each other right back. Thats why Egypt, Saudi Arabia and others want Iran to get their hands out... Persian Muslims, they hate the Persian part.

Oh yes. imo Yassir Arafat got Sharon elected by his deeds. Sharon is/was (he is barely alive) a "right wing take it to the Arabs".

I know that if Israel were ever left in peace... not bombed, kidnapped, suicide bombed, etc... they would help commerce take hold. They would gladly trade with the Palestinians and other Arab nations, they already have at some points in time. Israel understands the importance of education and commerce and understands the dangers of mindless zealotry. Remember they had their own Prime Minister's life take by a right wing Israeli fanatic.
