probably more so than any other nation on the planet is they face an existential threat from so many quarters. And this is no imaginary, concocted threat. Large groups of people and several countries do not believe Israel should exist. Should Iran obtain nuclear weapons and the ability to deliver them I have zero doubt they will nuke Israel even if it means their own destruction.

While I wasn't alive during WWII my parents were and I am an avid reader of history during that period. I can tell you that a great many Americans rallied around the country during that time period and during the entire conflict we were only attacked domestically at Pearl Harbor. Imagine what our country would be like if Mexico, instead of sending illegals to work, were intentionally sending people here to blow up civilians. Close your eyes and imagine our response.

And yet the current administration and most of the U.N. doesn't believe Israel has a right to defend themselves. They are not so much nationalistic as fatalistic and understand the dire consequences of weakness on their part.
