Israel was fine for the first few thousand years. The problem is the current acting individuals in the state.

I'm happy for the region to exist.

The state, not so much.

The experiment was a failure, give the land back to Palestine.

Maybe the Israelis can go to Egypt and demand their old jobs back.

By that same token, was Ottoman occupation of Israel successful or called for? Is it not unfair to call anyone in particular that when most nations sadly act as "failed experiments" (which causes Russia to come to mind thinking about it)? If Palestine itself had to lie about certain tragedies and get Russia and North Korea involved, could the "failed experiment" remark not be used on them? There is no hiding anything on any side anymore.
