DAVID KEENE: Most Muslims in Israel want peace with Jews – In Israel, most want peaceful coexistence with their Jewish neighbors | The Washingtion Times

TEL AVIV — In many ways these are the best and worst of times for Israelis. A decade ago their main fear was an invasion from and through Syria, but with the Syrians fighting among themselves they are no longer seen as a major threat. The Islamic State, or ISIS, has, in a sense, helped them. Or perhaps it would be more accurate to say that all those fighting in what one retired high-ranking Israeli officer insists on referring to as the territory that was once Syria are focused on killing each other rather than destroying Israel, so Israelis can focus on other threats.
