BTW, since you call him a 'neanderthal' it's obvious you have no idea who Jonathan Chait is, so let me toss you a clue. He's a Democrat who writes for The New Republic who wrote this in 2003

There are Democratic neandrathals as well. That doesn't trouble me one bit. You could pass me a piece that argued that if the Israelis just stopped fighting that would solve things. That would be written by another neandrathal.

The next piece you offer from Chait starts with...."I hate President George W. Bush. There, I said it."

No point in reading any more. He's a neandrathal.

Since you are among the crowd saying Israel should just stop shooting, that will solve things, he's waiting for your answer.

As I am not in that crowd, that illustrates why you're a neandrathal. It's always down to two choices with you Nadine and if I'm not in your camp, then I must be in the other camp. It doesn't even have to be a real camp.

Stopping fighting or not stopping fighting has virtually nothing to do with whether there will be a lasting peace in the mid-east. It's tough to argue that you can have a lasting peace while both sides are shooting at each other, but stopping the carnage doesn't do one bit to create a lasting peace.

You are so simplistic. You claim this started on Jul 12. The mid-east conflict started when Israel became a sovereign nation. The conflict was an unintended consequence. This particular "blip" in the conflict is what is being covered in the news.

At this point there's a neandrathal on the thread that's already thinking of their reply to that paragraph. Their neandrathal mind is already churning away grasping for the words..."So your solution to the mid-east conflict is for Israel to be destroyed."

You have zero objectivity. You can't even face that Israel is on the Tier 2 watch list for human trafficking.
