It wants the Pals to cry Uncle first, then comes peace. But Neo.. it's the Palestinians that perpetuate the conflict. I can damn well feel pretty certain that Israel bombs would not be falling on Palestine if the Palestinians declared a cessation of hostilities and had the ability to enforce it amongst their own population. And I can damn well feel pretty certain that Gaza would not be getting bombed if they could prevent its residents from digging tunnels or lobbing missiles across the Israeli border. Hell, Israel probably would refrain from retaliating if they just saw the PA actually attempting to enforce border and internal security. But all there is in Gaza are gangs and chaos each vying for ultimate power in the territory. And of course, many blame Israel for pulling out and leaving the territory in chaos. Damned if they do, Damned in they don't. hawk
