That's why Israel has no choice. If two states are not created soon, the world will witness the slow-motion destruction of Israel.

That is because the weaponry against it is unassailable. The best intelligence service in the world, Israel's Mossad, cannot prevent these crimes from happening. Our open societies insure that the bombers can never be interdicted. They can never be brought to justice.


LOL! That has got to be the most pathetically defeatist essay I have ever read. (Written by a Palestinian apologist, just maybe?) Let's see here: unless Israel gives into "cunning," "brilliant" mass murder it will be destroyed? (This logic is parallel to the U.S. caving to all Al-Qaeda demands, and those of all Islamic terrorists the world over, lest we face this "diabolical" weapon that cannot be defeated unless we throw up the white flag immediately...) I don't think so. Remember the Japanese kamikazes during World War II? By the time we were finished with them, they were all quietly committing seppukku (ritual suicide) in droves -ALL ALONE. History has recorded the treatment individuals, groups, peoples and states/pseudo-states have received time and again as a consequence resulting from such behavior. We all remember the mass fire-bombings of Hamburg and Dresden following German atrocities in Europe. We all remember the nuclear incineration of Hiroshima and Nagasaki which followed Japanese atrocities in Asia. Those who truly believe a proud people with a democratic heritage such as Israel will simply surrender to Islamic terror are quite deluded in their fantasy. The past few days are proving this. I see the terrorists surrendered by the hundreds today after being taught a rather unequivocal lesson by the Israeli Defense Forces. Military force does work indeed.

Whatever one's take on this unprecedented army of volunteer suicide victims, Israel simply cannot win on any level. It cannot win militarily. It cannot win psychologically. It cannot win politically. And it cannot continue to win economically.

Though it would be a drastic step, Israel could reoccupy the West Bank and Gaza, annex them both permanently, and then set out to expel all Arabs from Greater Israel. (And why not? Kuwait ethnically cleansed and booted more than 300,000 Palestinians less than 10 years ago. Jordan massacred Palestinians by the thousands and deported many hundreds of thousands more less than 40 years ago. Syria massacred 40,000 "separatists," razing entire cities not too long ago. As for Iraq...moral equivalency indeed! If Israel takes Arab action as the basis of treatment relacitrant inhabitants of the Middle East may expect, then we shall see what happens. It would be extremely mild by comparison of the Islamist-Fascist example.) Oh yes, that most certainly can be done. Then it can build a wall separating its territory from its neighbors, massively mined. "Suicide bomber" takes on an entirely new meaning...

If the continued terror of the Arabs against the Israelis continues, don't expect America to stand in Israel's way. Far from it. Palestinian terrorist organizations yesterday threatened the United States. Shall we turn over not only Israel, but also Spain, Cyprus and Turkey too to Islamic fanatics? What next? Replace the constitution with sharia law? Sound ridiculous? - Well, the first ever Muslim Imam to open Congress in prayer recently stated this was his great goal.

Israel is our line in the sand. Whether or not the Europeans, fearful of their seething Islamic communities already now attacking the West covertly, are willing to stand alongside us, we will prevail.
