OK, I like the point about Jihadis thinking all land is muslim land. And that if israel didn't exist the muslims would have to come up with some other excuse for their failures.

But why the unexplained surety that Israel will survive? This is not a given at all. It's something we will have to fight for, not to simply stand back and pretend it will exist no matter what. Iran is getting nukes, and Pakistan recently gave them away like candy. Isn't it inevitable for muslim terrorists to get nuclear bombs? How is Israel supposed to defend itself with any surety? Nuclear deterrance assumes you know which country hit you and you hit the people who did it to you. What if the mullahs in Iran sneak a few weapons to some terrorist groups? Given Iran's very extensive support of terrorist groups, I think THAT is a given. Let's help israel to survive by fighting for it, and being honest about the threats.
