But there are plenty of nutcases in the Middle East who have dedicated their lives to making things worse, and their efforts should not go unacknowledged.

Nadine, you'll be relieved to know that I am talking about the fanatical Arab/Islamist factions in the above paragraph


Yes, I am relieved to see you describe them as actors in their own right, not some kind of automatic reactors to American policy.

It makes your prescriptions even more mystifying, however. If Israel is dealing with nutcases who are dedicating their lives to making things worse, how is Israel holding fire even as the Kassams rain on Nahariya and Haifa supposed to help matters? Will the nutcases appreciate the restraint? Do the nutcases have negotiable demands? Or should we take the nutcases as their word? How would you handle them?
