Israel gets along just fine with Jordon and does a fair job with Egypt as well.

I was once married to a drunk and a lot of people said to me “You just have to get him to quit drinking.” The sheer irrationality of that statement often left me speechless because, as anyone who has ever lived with a drunk will tell you, you can’t make them do anything.

I think “Fact is Israel has to learn to get along with its neighbours” translates to, “Don’t bug me with facts here.”
