because the gentile world failed to protect Jews when they were in the greatest need of protection.

While I have my differences with that state, and believe Palestinians have been the victims of massive injustices, I don't believe that abolishing the State of Israel is a responsible choice, at least not until the world has a massive change in consciousness and commits itself to never again oppressing or persecuting anyone.

Don't let your anger about one people's suffering lead you to support destructive alternatives.
