Just as every person who had ever rescued that bully from admitting defeat helped create the cowardly brute I saw that evening in the bar, every well-intentioned power that has ever stepped in and negotiated a ceasefire for an Arab aggressor has helped create the monsters we see around us today.

A perfect metaphor.

Thanks Levi.

I don't think "oil money" or "saudi pensions", or (especially) Judenhass qualify as "good intentions".

Agreed. About the nicest thing you can say about this people is that they are appeasers, who don't appreciate the harm they cause.
