. actually many arabs beleive that the 2 stripes of the israeli flag refer to 2 rivers as well: the nile and the ufrates, which means israelis dreams of talking over all these lands between these two rivers.
This merely proves that many Arabs are idiots, or, more likely, that many Arabs are so brainwashed by their government's state-controlled antisemitic propaganda that they can't tell the truth from silly fiction. The real reason for the two stripes is simple: the israeli flag's design was taken from the talis (jewish pryer shawl), which traditionally has stars of david and blue (or black) stripes. It has no connection whatsoever to any rivers at all.
It was not, in fact, even the original design of the flag: Herzel's own design--seven golden stars of david on a white background--was rejected. Since he was the founder of modern zionism and yet his own design had nothing to do with any blue stripes or rivers, I suggest the Arabs find another conspiracy theory.
anothe symbol that might be annoying them is the yellow stripe between the two rivers as if you're saying the kurds control the land between the two rivers...
You know those guys in the airports that will tell you "the truth" about how everything is a conspiracy by "satanists", or blacks, or catholics, or jews, or Masons, or the Queen of England (LaRouche's favorite bogeyman), or the FBI, or the UN, or whatever--and that that can be "proven" by analyzing the US flag, or the back of the dollar bill, or the back of interstate highway signs, or the seal of the United States, etc.?
Well, imagine ENTIRE NATIONS being brought up, from age 0, on exactly those kind of conspiracy theories, which are drilled into them repeatedly by the state controlled television, papers, plays, radio, school textbooks, etc., etc., etc.--and you'll get some idea on what the paranoid, topsy-turvey worldview of many Arabs is like.
No wonder many Arabs automatically discover "real reason" for everything--including stripes on a flag--is "proof" of some the usual trio of evildoers, namely, everything is "proof" of an evil jewish-American-local enemy (Kurds, in this case) conspiracy, the three working in unison to destroy the proud Arab nation of X. They had years of training in that sort of thinking, until it became second nature.
