Sending Mixed Signals

Apparently, we had it wrong the whole time. The Arab states have really respected our country and have only recently viewed us as a racist, nationalistic country after we started adopting measures designed to keep terrorists out of our country. According to Israel National News:

“Israel has turned into a Jewish nationalist state.”
This, the London-based, Saudi-funded a-Sharq al-Awsat newspaper said, was the disturbing conclusion to be reached in light of the Israeli policy regarding the separation fence and regarding denial of automatic Israeli citizenship to Arabs from the Palestinian Authority who marry Israelis.

Regarding the latter policy, a-Sharq al-Awsat made the following confusing declaration: “This shows once again the extent of Israel’s racism and its anti-Palestinian discrimination, and it violates Israel’s basic dogma, which calls for protecting human pride and freedom.”

“This [policy] turns Israel into a racist country instead of one that had impressed all Arab parties with its attachment to democratic principles,”

I guess it has been their respect for our “attachment to democratic principles” that has prompted the Arab states to repeatedly attempt to wipe our country off the face of the planet.
