Israel was goaded so thoroughly by the suicide-bombing campaign that even Ha'aretz favored the military strike It's that simple. I'd like for all the naysayers to devise a better way to dissuade or stop the homicidal bombers. Perhaps the hierarchy of what should have been done, as the naysayers propose, would go something like this: 1.- Ask nicely. 2.- Ask not so nicely. 3.- Pout. 4.- Threaten softly. 5.- Threaten loudly. 6.- Ask for negotiations. 7.- Offer increased bribes I mean, aid, to the PA. 8.- Ask the US to intervene. 9.- Ask the Pope to intervene. 10.- Call for a Security Council meeting. 11.- Ask for a multilateral force to guard the border, perhaps a bunch of Finns and Paraguayans might do the trick. 12.- Promise to be nice. 15.- Make a statement renouncing violence. 16.- Announce unilateral withdrawal from all disputed areas. 17.- Promise to destroy all nukes. 18.- Let go of all terrorists in Israeli jails. After 200 Israeli dead while these various steps were taken, I'm sure the homicidal bombings might have ended. Don't you agree?
