Recommended: High Anxiety

I recommend Bruce Thornton's recent piece "High Anxiety: How Modernity feeds Arab anti-Semitism".

It has always seemed to me that Israel isn't treated evenhandedly in the US or the world press, or by the international community. Not that Israel hasn't made some mistakes, just like every other nation. But the number of times, for example, that the UN has tried to condemn Israel for some action while completely ignoring the Arab attack that provoked that action shows the one-sidedness of much of the world on this subject.
