Arab Countries are either perpetually at war or teetering on the brink.

Muslims are killing each other all the time, not all of them, of course, nonetheless the Arab Countries are either perpetually at war or teetering on the brink.
The Persians are just as bad.

I have heard estimates that Persian Muslims killed half a million  Arab Muslims in their eight year war.

It does seem to me  that this flotilla thing has caused many progressives to shift their views, at least somewhat.
The flotilla however,. as we all know, is just the most recent provocation, it it seems from reports I've seen, more media outlets are realizing the mistake of supporting groups that would, obviously, shut them down, if they had the power to do so.
The Arabs, and other Muslim extremists are over playing their hand, mistaking recent success lately in the PR war as the precipice of Victory over civilization.

While the Arabs thought the world was coming around to their ideology and demands, in reality the world was just being overly fair.

There is something about civilized people that they are quick to feel pity for the underdog, even if the underdog is only perceived as the underdog.

A very great man once said,
"You can fool some of the people part of the time, and part of the people all the time , but you can't fool all of the people, all of the time."
