I wont argue with this post. I knew for awhile you had a good heart. But you do know what is meant by routing out al queda, hiz,ham,iJ, and the rest--it involves force. So hiz attacks Iz on undisputed Iz territory and kills 8, kidnaps 2 and launches katushas at israeli targets in the north. Now one can argue that Iz overreacted but one cannot argue that a response was not called for. So its both Sarman. Yes by all means lets change the cycle of hstred on the ground, but how best to stop the provocations. Unfortunately the language of the terrorists, besides all the social stuff they do is violence and force. A nation must have the right of self defense and whether one thinks israel overreacted in the beginning or not, any reaction would have likely escalated to that point anyway. Its is a conundrum Sarman and i suspect neither of us really has an answer. We just gotta keep on trying to get reasonable folks to the table.

Instead of collective punishment of all Arabs, why don't concentrate on these organization, root them out cut there support and mostly eliminate the cause of their recruitment.

Those organizations aren't located in Israel. How is Israel supposed to accomplish those goals without the most incredible undercover spy network ever conceived?
