You give them a State, and you eliminate their excuses for terrorizing Israel. >>> Sorry Derek, not only this is naive, but also impractical... Did we stop Albanians from killing Serbs in Kosovo (and Macedonia) ...after we liberated them from Serb rule..?Hamas will have two targets-Jews and International Forces (that would be driven-out as soon as scores of them will be killed, just like Beirut) We'll be in square one within a year...

And if necessary, Security Council mandated occupation by international forces.>>> That would be another pretext for Jihad, you don't suggest to place only Muslems in the International Force, do you? <gg>

<< You give them a State, and you eliminate their excuses for terrorizing Israel. >> Give them a state someplace else, where they can't attack Israel. The more you appease terrorists, the bolder they get. Who cares if the Palestinians use an excuse or not. The end result is dead Israeli children. Remember...... Israel offered Arafat their own state, financial help, and peace, earlier this year, and Arafat turned it down and answered with violence. Why? Because Arafat knew that the US was going to get attacked, and wanted to wait, in order to cash in on a devastated America. He miscalculated, and now he is killing his own youth as a morbid offering to the world. It's easy to take a chance and place a violent, terrorist "state" within Israel, as long as it is a long way away from where you live.
