I can't explain it. As every year passes, my heart beats Israel louder and louder. My love for Israel simply grows and grows. As a result of this love, it really upsets me when I hear the lies repeated in the media, and then parroted by the media's viewing public.
I am going to spend a bit of time dealing with the myths out there. It truly is amazing, when you begin to see the pattern of not only twisting, but ignoring of certain news while magnifying other stories. Israel can be the obvious and blatant victim, and news will make it look like their fault.
First, lets imagine waking up every day with an enemy living right next door, that wishes to blow us off the planet. While the PLO continues to aggressively push into Israel's borders, Israel must think strategically for the sake of survival. Their enemy has been fed hatred towards them since the day they were born. Here's a good visual for how tiny Israel is:

Israel would fit INSIDE nearly every U.S. state! In fact, tiny Israel would fit into the United States (Alaska & Hawaii included) 768 times! Israel could fit into Florida SEVEN times! The United States is a country surrounded by two vast oceans and two friendly countries, Canada and Mexico. Israel is not so lucky. she is surrounded by 22 Arab countries and some very nasty Arab Islamic terrorist organizations.
Moving on ... from HERE: Israel granted full citizenship to all of the Palestinian Arabs who fell within its borders after the War of Independence. Arabic is an official language in Israel. Israel remains to this day one of the few countries in the Middle East where Arabs can legitimately vote--and it is the only one where women can vote.
So who was the seed of the Palestinian refugees outside its borders, living in squalor, oppressed and afflicted? The Arab nations 'round about told these "Palestinians" living in Israel to get out -- so they could come in and demolish it. Some did, some didn't. Those who fled, that Israel might be destroyed, were not let back in. Their "dictators" keep them poor, and feed them hatred, and train them to strap bombs onto their bodies and blow up as many Israelis as possible. Those "Palestinians" living within Israel's borders who did not flee, but stood by Israel, were allowed to remain.
Oh, there's so much more to say but I can't say it all in one post. A very good, brief history (animation - short, and to the point) can be seen HERE.
