Israel plays this exact same game. They bow to American pressure, and announce a settlement freeze. Then the Israeli government looks the other way while illegal settlements are started Leaving aside the question of whether it's correct to consider blowing up buses and setting up trailers as morally equivalent, it is not the same game at all. Israel never gave over control of Area C and never agreed to stop all construction on that area. The US is trying to get a settlement freeze as a new concession. Any? What about the Mujahedeen Khalq? What about the Israeli use of car bombs, targetted assasinations, and the constant civilian "collateral damage" these tactics cause? So I gather you think that the US overthrow of the Taliban is exactly equivalent to, equally as terrorist as, September 11th? If you really believe that there is absolutely no difference between killing thousands of unarmed civilians and going after the killers so they cannot strike again, then there is really no use discussing the matter any further.
