"All politics by another name. There are basically only four possible outcomes to a conflict: one side crushing the other, a negotiated settlement, petering out of hostilities due to general exhaustion, or the rise of a new power or revolutionized political situation renders the conflict moot."

For Nadine, war is man's natural, normal state..

In Israel, I guess it IS.

Which brings us back to the war that Middle East muslims are waging on "people of the book". They do not desire peace, only victorious expungement of rival religions. They will use outright conflict when they can, when they can't they will use terrorism, when that is thwarted they will feign peace until they can revert to one of the other states.
