To want your son to blow himself up to kill your enemy is sick and evil. That is not the act of a rational, civilized society.

I agree. It is the act of a desperate society.

If Israel gave the Palestinians a state, do you actually think those type of attacks would stop.

Yes. This statement by you contains the kernel that is at the essence of the typical, irrational, biased attitude most Jews hold toward this conflict. You know that Palestinians want more than anything to have a state, without the encroachment of Israeli settlements. It is the fanatical Jewish settlers in Gaza and West Bank that directly provoke most of the violence. Somehow, you think if you can keep repeating the opposite, somehow the Palestinians will forget the Israeli military that is in their faces every day. That is what I call irrational.
