Stalin wanted the US and Great Britain to open a second front in France because it would divide the German military. During the time of this statement, Germany's only real military threat came from the Soviet Union. With this in mind, Hitler had the ability to put a huge number of troops on the Soviet Union/German border.

However, if the US and Great Britain planned an invasion through France, that means Hitler would have to move hundreds of thousands, maybe even millions, of troops to France. France, in relation to the Soviet Union, was over 1,000 miles away.

Forcing Germany to fight this two front war would decrease their chance of success.

How was Israel received by the Arab community ?

max2010maxim [7]

When Israel was established as a country in place of Palestine in 1948, the other countries around them, (some Arab), attacked Israel in an attempt to crush the newly formed nation, triggering a series of smaller wars that Israel had to fight in for their own defense. In other words, based on this historic event, we can infer that the Arab community didn't exactly appreciate, much less like the Israelites.
