One way for the Palestinians to have avoided this catastrophe would have been to not send 23 people into Israel to blow up crowded buses and restaurants in the last 18 months. It wasn't 23 people, it was hundreds. Most were stopped before the boom, or under conditions where the bomber killed only himself. Only the "successes" made the US papers. To date there have been nearly one hundred "successes", ie suicide bombings where the bomber took Jews with him. Not to mention the mass shootings of bus stops, the infiltrations of settlements, the roadside bombings, the gunfights at checkpoints, etc, etc. This "intifada" (the word means 'uprising') is not really a popular uprising, but has been a military operation almost from the start.
