When Israel and the Jews can't be blamed
At The Sudanese Thinker, Drima looks forward to the day when corrupt Arab governments are no longer able to blame Israel and the Jews for all of their problems. This post drips with sarcasm - and it's spot on:Read it all.As long as Palestinians suffer under the evil Zionists, there cannot be any progress in our nations. As long as Jews are alive, our problems will not go away. We must rid ourselves of this cancer. Must we not?
Arab media, particularly the state-owned kind, are equally discouraged from focusing on national issues — such as the desperate state of our slums — and instead devote most newsprint and airtime to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict or Iraq. The latter never got much attention when Saddam Hussein was filling mass graves with Shi’ites and Kurds, but catapulted to the top of the news bulletins when the Arab world’s other bete noire — the United States — invaded Iraq in 2003.
Ah, how could I forget those Americans — the Big Satan? Once we’re done with the Little Satan, we’ll turn our sights to the Big one — the land of alcohol, porn, Las Vegas and the root of all evil.
Let’s shelter our oppressed Palestinian brothers. Let’s put them first before any of those living a few feet away from us. They deserve more help. The problems in our own backyards don’t matter, and for many they don’t even exist, but those that are miles and miles away from us do — through our television screens, the radios’ shouts and screams, opinions of the Arab streets, and our schools’ books and distorted dreams.
Oh Lord, destroy the sons of pigs and apes. They are our wonderful leaders’ deadly Weapons of Mass Distraction.

That's why the Egyptians talk of breaking Palestinian border crossers' legs. The Arab hatred of the Palestinian brethren is as intense as their hatred of the Jews. A Palestinian state won't be viable if it can't trade with the Arab countries bordering it and with the wider Middle East.
Of course if the Palestinians were allowed to have a viable state, Israel and the Jews could no longer be blamed. The Palestinian issue is a foil that keeps the heat off corrupt and repressive Arab governments. So they have a vested interest in the continuance of the conflict with Israel.
And one can imagine what a truly viable Palestinian state would do to that, so the Palestinians must be keep eternally on the world dole and fed hatred of Israel. That's far as Arab support for the Palestinian brethren will go.
