Peter, it was necessary to create Israel there because that is what the powerful Jews wanted. They wanted that before WW 1 and was not delivered and so on to WW 2. Israel is a spoil of war and has fueled the famous military-industrial complex which has sucked the world's endeavors dry. Look at this big picture, what does Israel produce or make to pay for their armies and everything else that goes with a modern society. How do they do it money wise? There there so to have a reason for war and all the energy that goes with that waste. Such a shame.
