An Islamic Jihad demonstration Friday in Gaza drew Palestinian youngsters, shown holding grenades and wearing mock explosives.

This photo ought to cure anyone of the Ebony & Ivory concept of the human community. Everyone is not the same wherever you* go. There may be good and bad in everyone, but some people have defined their good as your complete and total elimination from the face of the earth. You're not failing to understand them if you think they want you dead. Their wanting you dead is not due to misunderstanding on their part of your objectives in life. There is no level of "understanding" that will make their objectives become good from your point of view unless you should agree to your own demise. The only thing to be done is to fully comprehend their intransigence and prepare for battle or simply acquiesce. Given what "Islam" means, "surrender", they're expecting that's just what you'll do. Let's falsify their concept of reality.

*This is the rhetorical, not personal, you.

In your* post, there are a great many general pronouns that ought to be specific pronouns, but I like what I see. Mr Benjamin N. the ex prime minister of Israel, talks of the training schools for these future walking time bombs. That Arab, or Muslim or Islamic moms willingly send their children to them for such training and indoctrination at very young ages.

*Very specific pronoun.

Somehow I feel the Israelis have a more realistic idea of what the future holds before "Peace In Our Time", becomes a reality. Which makes the plaintive cries of certain of our countrymen calling for Israel to back off and back out of incursions into Palestinian lands, seem somewnat stupid in the face of what they* face.

*Very Israel specific pronoun.
