Go back and read the history of when they were first formed in '47. |
Most of what I have read are military strategy books. I will say that Israel is the object of study by every military in the world.
I do remember a book published, maybe in the seventies, called "Oh Jerusalem" that gave a pretty good account of the struggle they faced against the existing nations, all of whom declared war on them. Suffice it to say the Arabs lost.

Have you ever looked at a map of the area? The way the Arab world whines about those "bullies" Israel makes me laugh. The Arab nations are some of the wealthiest in the world, occupy a space several hundred times greater than Israel, yet are begging the US to "call them off" all the time. |

When the Arabs try to develop their own weapons, the might of the powerful came down upon them. |

This area of war is very climatic - you have the US/UK fighting in Iraq and you have Israel fighting in Palestine... wow, it certainly is ripe for revenge in the eyes of Arabs.

100 Palestinians Martyred During March: Ministry
Agencies
GAZA CITY, 3 April 2003 - More than 100 Palestinians, including 26 children, were killed in the West Bank and Gaza Strip in March by the Israeli Army, the Palestinian Health Ministry said in a report released yesterday.
"Some 101 people were killed, including 26 children, and 638 wounded during this period," the report said.
The ministry said sanitary conditions were "deteriorating" in the Palestinian territories. The West Bank has been almost entirely reoccupied by Israeli troops for months.
The ministry also warned against the "exploitation by the Israeli government of the international situation to continue its aggression against the Palestinian people," in an allusion to the US-led war on Iraq.

As crazy as it may sound what Stranger wrote it's very true. I deeply believe that both sides love 'blood' they really live, breathe to kill each other, they don't want the peace and they will never get it, I'm not trying to be negative but realistic. Sad but true
