Palestine's Eager Supporters

The old adage says, "a man is known by the company he keeps." That could also, I suppose, be said of nations. The nascent Palestine has some interesting friends. North Korea, the last Stalinist state on earth, built on slavery and murder, is all for creating the world's newest polity. This is of course the same North Korea that the UN waged war on a couple of generations back after their unprovoked aggression against South Korea. Syria, whose forces are busying themselves with slaughtering their own people in the streets, is a hundred percent for the new Palestine. Iran, which is readying a nuclear attack on Israel, is one of the staunches backers of a new Palestine. That is not to say every country that is pushing for Palestine to be carved out of Israel is a wholly evil entity, but chances are that at some point in their history, all the nations driving the formation of what is destined to be a terrorist state, have ignored human rights, trampled over their own people, or really put it to the Jews, just like Palestine will when it unfurls the flag of the world's newest nation.
