People have become so disconnected from religiosity that they cannot put themselves into the minds of the religious at all. I have heard everyone on international news outlets discussing the Mullahs in term of diplomacy even suggesting their fulminations are a part of the way they do business. All of them are dead wrong. To the Mullahs Mohammed was sent by god and Mohammed said the Jews stole the birthright that rightfully belonged to the Arabs. Everything that happens happens because god ordains it. So, if the Jewish people have their homeland back it can only be because god wills it, and the only reason god would turn his back in the Muslims is because they have strayed from orthodoxy.
Being more Muslim than Muslim is their only answer. You can lie, you can kill millions of your own people, you can kill anyone in your way but you must destroy the Jewish people. Until you understand this is their thought process, you will never solve the riddle of the Middle East.
