OK, but the reason is because the other nations aren't surrounded by
hostile nations who, in the Isrealis view, would like nothing more than
to eliminate Israel.

I believe the Sinai was invaded during the war in 1967, when it was a
part of Egypt. And it was returned.

But Iraq invaded Kuwait as a move to gain more land, oil, and money,
Isreal invades Palestine for a very specific reason (generally arresting
or killing some Palestinian assholes who blew up some Israeli citizens)
and then leaves.
If I had my way, the Palestinians would have to deal with being under
the control of Isreal permanently. The country would be Isreal, Jew and
Palestinian together, without any of this bullshit about some sections
Jew and some Muslim.
The thing you (and the Palestinians) need to realize is that there's a
lot of guilt about the Holocaust, still. I'm sure the Germans on the
list could confirm this. It doesn't matter that it was 50-odd years ago,
in a hundred years it'll probably still be there. Why? Because we could
have stopped it, and we didn't. So America will bend over backwards to
aid the Israelis. If tomorrow Israel was invaded by Iran, a highly
improbable scenario I'm sure, we might drop our anger and our thirst for
vengeance and move our soldiers over there to help. We WILL NOT allow
Israel to be eliminated. Period.
