Israel

The impressive aspect for the existence of Israel is that they exist. Begining in 1948 when they were granted statehood by the United Nations, they have come under attack by their Arab neighbors. The result being Israel embarrassed these aggressors by kicking the snot out of them. If you'll notice their 1967 border one can understand their reluctance to go back to this arrangement as suggested by our leader. An eight mile width nation is not all that much when those next to you want your annihilation. As it is, Isreal's borders today are in the range of 290 by 80 miles. miles
