Israel

Since its inception in 1948, Israel has been under attack from the surrounding Arab nations. From day one there has been an effort to wipe Israel off of the map. Israel's detractors, if they knew anything at all of history, would know this. Most Arab nations don't acknowledge the state of Israel. The PLO and Hamas have in their charters, "the destruction of Israel." It has been only the Providence of God that has kept Israel from complete destruction. Israel's detractor's can't see this. Just as they ignore the countless suicide bombers that have attacked Israel for years as well. Israel has suffered many casualties in its civilian population for many years. This magazine is part of the "inbred journalism culture" who see things only from a worldview from the left.
