Zionist delusions

Don't you like it when Zionists try to convince themselves that they are not as detested by Arabs and non-Arabs as much as they are? Don't you like it when Zionists insist on looking at the bright side of Israel's miserable fate?  They are very much like those on the Titanic who believed that although the ship is sinking, the wine that evening was really good.  "Economic distress, not ideological fervor, is behind Sinai's terror boom."
