Jews live all over the world and whereevr they are they are non-violent, get havily involved with the arts, science, technology and sscholarly endeavour. Israel is a remarkable little enclave of the arts, agricultural miracles, science, technology and scholarship constantly under attack for 58 years by large, belligerent Arab nations steeped in backwardness. I wish Rami Khouri and the rest of the Arab and Muslim world would get their own house in order and stop blaming the USA and Israel for their violence, chaos, civil disorder and retrograde attitudes.
