Nadine, Does the use of terrorism -- deliberately targeting non-combatant civilians -- weaken a cause or does it not? That's really the fundamental question. If you say that a choice for terrorism does not matter, then press on for their 'rights' regardless. If it does matter, then how can you reward terrorists just as if they were behaving in a civilized manner? What message does it send? What results will it produce? Would you like to have the terrorists' new state in your neighborhood? Do you think it would aid the cause of peace or human rights? Perhaps you should direct these questions to the terrorists who used the very same tactics to successfully found the state of Israel. How is it that terrorism is an acceptable means for Israelis but not for anyone else. I can't imagine that arabs liked having a terrorist state in their neighborhood and they still don't, however, a peace proposal has been made. All Israel has to do is to agree to go back to pre 1967 boundaries and abandon the settlements.
