By playing the Arabs/Muslims vs. Zionism/Israel using the notion of a “Jewish State”, the West cast itself as the protector of the state project from the threat of the “Barbarians” at the gates of “civilization”, which can only be Western and nothing else. This allows the Western powers to continue to dominate the region’s resources while appearing to be the peacemakers. Selling weapons to all sides at the same time, while running and laughing all the way to the bank of moral bankruptcy.
