Someone tell my assistant to send Yourish some flowers and a thank you for the tip on the following essay by Josef Jaffe entitled A World Without Israel.
It is a long piece, but well worth the read. Here is a snippet for your review and consideration.
"Imagine that Israel never existed. Would the economic malaise and political repression that drive angry young men to become suicide bombers vanish? Would the Palestinians have an independent state? Would the United States, freed of its burdensome ally, suddenly find itself beloved throughout the Muslim world? Wishful thinking. Far from creating tensions, Israel actually contains more antagonisms than it causes."
