That is no different than saying the English should have killed all Irish and raze Ireland to the ground. Or that the Spanish and French should kill all Basque people and burn their villages to the ground. Or something.

(I am assuming, of course, that you are somewhat familiar with IRA & ETA, and the fact that terrorism did not start on 9/11 and neither is it an exclusively Muslim activity. And I am not even going to go into how the US was the biggest financial supporter of IRA. Maybe you would like the UK to invade the US?)

the arabs should have stopped the "factions" from killing.

How?

By the way, perhaps you did not realize that terrorists of 9/11 were Saudi. So the Saudi people did not stop the terrorists, either. Do you advocate a genocide of the Saudi Arabs as well?

whatever the reason for their supporting terrorism and not stopping it, they should be killed.

Right. So you are advocating genocide. Nice to know we have our own little Hitler here on SI <g>

As I said before, fortunately world leaders think a little more profoundly than you on this point. Sharon knows well that if they attempt a genocide on Palestinians, they are cooked. The west will turn their back on them in an instant, and without that support, Israel has the life expectation of a snowball in hell in the Middle East.
