But whatever they believe, the result has been divisiveness, and not much resolution of the problems that have caused the conflicts in the first place. I don't think there are any simple answers, but in this day and age, aggressive rhetoric and the use of force don't look to be the only solutions at our disposal.

So do you think diplomacy has not been tried before? I'd say diplomacy has brought "not much resolution of the problems that have caused the conflicts in the first place" as well.

Also, who would you negotiate with? In both the Iraq and Israel situations, negotiations have happened and been agreed to. There have just been no results. Terrorist attacks continue in Israel (even though Arafat denounces them), and Iraq still pursues WMD. Neither can seem to keep their word, so why bother talking to them?

Do we need another meeting at camp david? That'll help. At least it could make everybody "feel good" for a few days.
