Alighieri Re..Less because it is infact encouraging Israel in responding with violence

Where are you getting this stuff? AFAIK, GW has urged both sides to stop the violence. What is it with you liberals, that you can only condemn Israel for the violence, but not the Palestinians. If you truly are against violence, you would condemn both sides.

And that, coupled to our bellicose stance in Iraq, will be responsible for more terror against Israel and the US than what we have seen so far.

Interesting statement. You make it sound like we should live with the terrorism at the current level, and not attack back at the terrorists, because retribution would just encourage more terrorism, at a higher level. How so? Should the US allow the terrorist to destroy the twin towers, or its equivalent, every yr, every other year, once every five yrs., How many nightclubs in Bali should we allow to be destroyed, how many oil tankers sunk, how many embassies have to be rebuilt, before you agree that the purpose doesn't justify the means. Iraq is a first step in stopping the terrorism, by giving the Arab people a showcase for democracy. A gov. not of dictators, not of extremist religious clerics, but a gov. of the people, by the people, for the people.

Besides, I don't see how you can back a holy war by the Muslims. I sincerely doubt the holy war will do any more for Islam the the crusades did for the Church.
