You are missing the forest for the trees; it's not just the Arabs that hate you now, it everyone, even other Jews. I'm not referring to the Haredi who refuse to accept the the state of Israel, I'm referring to Conservative/Reform and the others, eg Gen X/Millennial/Zoomer Jews who may or may not be particularly religious except during the High Holy Days, usually to appease their parents. Right now the US is supporting Netanyahu even as the number of Israelis who want him and his ilk gone grows every day. US governments change and people move on or are forced out, and everyone is pretending the US is no long a majority white Christian nation, thanks to the polices of the very people Israel depends on-and let me remind you there are people in Israel and the US government seriously demanding the US take in the very same Palestinians you are pushing out.I'm willing to pay the price of still having that but getting rid of Hamas and keeping Gazans either contained or out of the Gaza strip. I'd like to have a year were rockets wouldn't be flying over my house for once.
Really? Send them to the US so they can become citizens, get elected and begin enacting polices that favor them and theirs? Exactly what do they think will happen in ten, fifteen twenty years down the line and the US makes nice with Iran, Lebanon, Syria and Yemen? Call Russia? There are Likud cabinet members hysterically screaming they will destroy Russia right now because they aren't supporting Total Palestinian Death on Russian state media.
Israel may win this battle, but it will lose the war. I hear a lot of talk about God and Abraham and so on from Israelis but I never hear anyone mentioning Proverbs 16:18: "Pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall."
