That's what I was thinking. The Jewish state of Israel was and is surrounded by many Muslim states, and for some strange reason, the Muslims hate the Jews (even though they believe in the same God), and they obliterated the state of Israel. After the Holocaust there was a big push for a Jewish state because everyone felt bad for the Jews.
