Is it time to consider that Israel was a very good idea on paper but that it turned into a horrific reality? and should we think about another refuge for the Jews? (maybe a piece of land in USA?)

Allow me to expand: Again, I think Isreal is a great idea on paper, but horrific on reality (it became a monster, and a big dispointment)... a little bit like Iraq was a good idea as well, but the execution turned to crap. And another point: I'm Jewish, so whoever claims that I am antisemetic should find some other insult...

It was a bad idea on paper(because anyway u think about it the Jews would have to occupy some other's nation land) and it is a bad idea now that it's real....It was wrong to create a country for one single religion and it was wrong to take someone else's land to create it on...
U think a piece of land in USA will do?Sure USA supports Israel when it's occupying someone else's land,not when it would occupy its land...

Israel was given the land it has because it was "promised" to them in the Bible. That's why they call it the promised land. No we cant give them part of the US. The Jewish people should not need refuge they have a homeland other people should just leave them alone and quit bothering them. And no it was not a bad idea, when it was conceived the Jews were being exterminated in Europe and they needed a place to go cause countries like ours would not take them. We will take all kinds of illegal immigrants but take people being exterminated OH NO!!!! cant do that.

Are you for real? I want to know what makes you tick? Israel was a country WAY WAY before the USA. Why would I want to have a piece of land anywhere else. The only reason you here "bad" stories about us, look who are neighbors are? Do you believe in your Bible? When the Jews were done wondering in the desert for 40 some years, God showed the land to Moses and gave it to the Jews, not some place in the USA. Sounds to me like you are antisemetic.

It's a matter of opinion as to whether Israel was a good or bad idea; dependent upon whether one supports Israel or opposes Israell. Since most of those countries whom oppose Israel are not democracies, do not have a free press, do not have strong opposing political parties; support terrprism without regard to innocents (since Israel intentionally targets combatents and not innocents; Israel is conducting self defense, not terrorism in response). Then maybe your question should be maybe it's a good idea to indicate to those whom profess violence by any means to destroy Isreal should be driven to rethink their position.

Yes quite possibly, it was formed in 1948, and is a source of antaginism for the Palestinians who live in refugee camps in their own land.
I think the Jewish Israelis should move to Utah.

Israel is a very good idea and has benefited mankind with different inventions such as mobile phones.
Why would anyone oppose a people group having their own country and nation?

No, Israel has been around for a millenia or two. Only last century did it get a name and rights to exist as a nation.
