Obsession with Israel was used for a long time to distract Arabs from the misrule, gross corruption and splendid wealth of the leaders. Hopefully, the hatred they taught will die with the regimes. I think not, it's the splendid wealth that kept the hatred of the leaders 'corrupt' in the eyes of the fundamentalists.
In the end they all end up as fat corrupt failures and therefore need to be kept in place to buy time until all resources are gone. I don't mind if Gaddafi wins although he's an old demon learning new tricks.
