To be honest, that we should have propped them up in the first place 60 years ago was perhaps the greatest and most damaging diplomatic folly committed by the western world in its intercouse with near and middle east in all of 20th century.
To sooth our conscience for what we've done to 12 million Jews, we chavalierly wrote off the self respect and aspirations of 70 million Arabs as unimportant and entirely dismissible.
We then compounded our folly by driving ourselves ever deeper into a retorical trap about Israel's "right to exist"
