[...] I think Richard Cohen is trying to make amends for his column last week where he called Israel a mistake. If by chance you have the search engine LexisNexis and you punch in the words "Israel'' and "disproportionate,'' you run the risk of blowing up your computer or darkening your entire neighborhood. Just limiting the search to newspapers and magazines of the last week will turn up "more than 1,000 documents.'' Israel may be the land of milk and honey but it certainly seems to be the land of disproportionate military response — and a good thing, too. [...]

Israel is not a mistake.

But you could argue that the handling of the situation, the forming of the country, the whole process has been plagued by mistakes, misconceptions, and blatant carelessness – we – the brits, the french, the whoever – are the colonizers, we do as we want.
The whole middle-east was messed up by europeans drawing country borders with a ledger – just look at Iraq and Iran, then the whole sunni – shiia conflict there, or Kuwait which was originally part of Iraq, but was chopped off make the line straight.

And we can’t deny, that we have created or at least intensified the the conflicts by the inept handling of the “set the colonies free” movement.
Both in the Middle-East and the African continent.

And by ‘we’ I don’t mean Hungary, we did not have any colonies
