Why Israel Fears Overthrow of Arab Dictators

Two reasons: 1) Arab despots oppress the Palestinians same as the Jews do. Egypt has always been brutal towards them. The Jordanian “Kings” (beloved of the U.S. media) oppress their Palestinian majority. Egypt helps enforce the blockade of the Gaza Strip. Egypt and Jordan have all kinds of secret deals with the Israelis. Democracies would have a hard time selling such deals to their publics.

2) if Arab nations become democratic, then Israel CAN NO LONGER SAY IT’S THE ONLY MIDEAST DEMOCRACY!! This is a big excuse for U.S. support of Israeli oppression of the Palestinians and overall fanatical U.S. support for Israel and whatever it does.
