John,
Both sides want peace -- on their terms. Both sides obviously think they are in the right. One side uses suicide bombings. The other side makes extra-judicial killings of people who live within territory over which they are the sovereign power. This is known as murder in the civilized world.

I don't call attention to these points in order to condemn one side and praise the other, or vice-versa.

I make one and one point only: it is in the INTEREST OF THE AMERICAN PEOPLE to stay out of these quarrels.

>> we should not change our position until the suicide bombing stops.

This is more bs. There were no suicide bombings 10 years ago. So what was your excuse then?

The unquestioning US support of Israel is what emboldens the Israelis to escalate their repressive policies, which has led to the suicide bombings.
