This letter is less about the state of Israel, and more about the Israeli freedom party, the predecessor of today's Likud party headed by Netanyahu.

Time and again I'm amazed how well Einstein's opinions and predictions have aged, whether in physics or politics. Of course there's probably some survivorship bias involved, as we're more likely to hear about his successes than mistakes.

The founder of that party was Menachem Begin, who signed a lasting peace with Egypt (despite Carters attempts to undermine it) and also won a Nobel Peace prize. He is also the inspiration for the Magneto character from X-men comics.
