In 1948, Sheikh Hassan al-Banna, founder of the Muslim Brotherhood, was quoted by the New York Times as saying:
“If the Jewish state becomes a fact, and this is realized by the Arab peoples, they will drive the Jews who live in their midst into the sea.”
Now while the Muslims have clearly not succeeded in driving us into the sea in the almost 70 years since, the existentialist threat they pose has helped drive us to become the innovation nation, leading to…
us driving ourselves into the sea!
