I think the most useful way to look at all this is from a long term perspective. Israel began mostly after World war II as countries like the U.S. and Great Britain felt bad and sorry for Jewish people of which 6 million were tortured and Killed by Hitler during World war II. So, Israel mostly came about with Jewish Money from the U.S. and Europe with the support of Allied Governments including the U.S. just after World war II.
However, looking back the Palestinians were treated sort of like Native Americans were by white settlers settling the U.S. in the 1800s. Now Palestinians and other Middle Eastern Nations like Saudi Arabia and Iran and others are very powerful monetarily because of oil.
This has completely changed the dynamics of the Middle east.
The countries most aligned with Israel because of their physical survival against Iran and Russia are Saudi Arabia and Jordan and a few other nations who need Israel to exist as a buffer against Iran.
Iran is Shia Muslim which is at odds with Sunni Muslims. Most of the Middle East is Sunni Muslim of various different Sects.
So, Saudi Arabia and Jordan and even Iraq to some degree need Israel to continue to exist. And you could add Europe and the U.S. need Israel to exist simply because they are our greatest ally in the Middle East at present and also have nuclear weapons. The nuclear weapons factor I think is the biggest one here because trying to prevent Israel from nuking Iran and Tehran is an ongoing problem.
However, what is happening in College demonstrations across the U.S. is young people's outrage at Palestinians being massacred. However, they don't seem to understand fully the history there.
For example, Hamas has vowed to push Israelites into the ocean. There is NO peaceful co-existence with Hamas ever.
So, Israel rightly so believes they have to kill every Hamas adherent (man, woman and child) in order to continue to exist as Israel.
However, this isn't going to work and I don't know entirely how all this works out. But, right now, Israel is losing on college campuses worldwide and this could spell the eventual end to Israel.
So, in this case Israel's strength has become it's ultimate weakness on the world stage.
And because of this I'm afraid we are going to see Israel eventually out of desperation nuking Iran which would send Iran's Army into Israel to wipe Israelites off the map. If this happens a nuclear war might happen which is my biggest concern for the whole world here.
This wouldn't help anyone really if Israel out of desperation nukes Tehran off the map because that would then be the end of Israel likely forever (or at least for this century) as a Jewish state.
