He was shooting at too many things wasn't he? The ethical and practical disadvantages of the suicide campaign, the origin and support of islamicism in Saudi Arabia, US failure to confront Saudis about that, hypnotism of foreign policy by Saudi oil, etc. My goodness, it reads like one of my more hysterical posts here!

(Like Wieseltier, I'm surprised at the easy ride the Saudis have got from US since September. Can't figure that out.

Try a stunt like that in Moscow or Beijing and see what you get!)

I think this was his point but he surely didn't develop it as it came right at the end after all the other stuff:

"There is no reason for foreign soldiers to spare the
Palestinians the pangs of auto-emancipation. Otherwise no
peace will ever be real."
