You wrote:"Only the other day the leader of Hamas, Prime Minister Ismail Haniyeh, offered a permanent "ceasefire" if Israel returned to the pre-1967 borders. If he's serious, and I'm sure he is, then it seems like a good deal to me." That offer was nothing more than an obvious scam, which only the really naive, who had no knowledge of Hamas, or the past 60 years of Arab aggression, would believe was a substantive and realistic offer. Did you read through the entire "offer" or did you just take terrorist's words at face value and assume that Hamas terrorists have good intentions in their hearts? What do you feel is more believable, terrorist's actions or terrorist's words? You wrote:"Can you not see that the present policy is a disaster for all concerned, including Israel?" You have no idea what you are talking about. No idea, at all. Yet you continue to post meaningless, parroted nonsense. Appeasement of terrorists, thugs and despots has NEVER worked. If Israel is successful at driving Hezbollah out of Lebanon, and at destroying Hamas and driving Hamas, and the other terrorists out of Gaza, there might be a possibility for peace. It's not going to be easy, but when faced with Islamic terrorists whose ONLY goal is your extermination, you have no choice but to fight back. Hiding under your bed won't make the deranged Islamic beasts go away. Nor will speaking with termites or fleas will make them go away. |
