Len,

"If there is something to stop fighting for..unless you believe people enjoy killing for the sake of it."

Let me see if I understand you.

You want the Israelis to give 'something' to Hamas so they will stop their suicide bombers. But what you don't say is what that 'something' is.

I suggest to you whatever that 'something' is has to be worked out in negotiations between the Palestinians and the Israelis. But, that is exactly what Hamas doesn't want to happen. They want to be able to continue their suicide bombings as negotiatons go on.

No country, no person can negotiate freely and fairly at the point of a gun. I think a temporary cease fire between the two sides during negotiations would be a reasonable state of affairs, but again that's not what Hamas wants. They have said so time and again. They will continue the bombings no matter what the PLO does.

In brief, Hamas wants to the death and destruction of the Jews to continue and by result the death and destruction of the Palestinians as well.
