Title:ENTIRE CONFLICT EXPLAINED IN LESS THAN 20 LINES

According to Shariah law, waging Holy War of Extermination (Jihad) against Infidel nations is every Muslim`s command, with Infidels given 3 choices:

(a) Embrace Islam;
(b) Submit to Islamic rule as oppressed Dhimmi minority (so-called "Binational State");
(c) Death and destruction.

Any Arab ruler who breaks above rules faces "fatwa" of certain death. See Abdullah I of Jordan, Anwar Sadat, fate Arafat faced at Camp David II, and Abu-Mazen faces today.

There are only 3 ways to counter this:

(a) Decisively defeat and expel Jihadists beyond insurmountable boundaries (happened in history only in Iberia, Sicily, Malta, Tzarist Russia, Ottoman Europe);

(b) Sign Truce (Hudna), which Jihadists may for up to 10 years, until able to restage same 3 threats more lethally;

(c) Evacuate and emigrate to another land.

There you have it:

Entire foundation of Arab-Israel conflict (and 14 centuries of Arab Imperialism) in a nutshell...

Everything else is empty words!
