The Israelis cannot keep using helicopter gunships against civilians in the occupied territories, and imagine that all the bad press is not going to effect them.
On daily basis, Israel has been getting bad press from its militaristic responses to the terrorists. There is a compelling reasons that Sharon needs to acknoweldge that you can't get everything by brute force. A more diplomatic leader is needed to craft an arragement of coexistance with the Arabs. I know it is easier said than done. And I know that the Arabs are only looking at this as a temporary peace until they kill all the Jews! However, a pragmatic solution with the help of the US can ease this tention. Israel needs that NOW. The more bad press it gets, the more difficult it becomes to reform that bad image around the world.
Just remember, the militant bombers were passified in the seventies eighties, and nineties, this rapid escalation in violance started under Sharon.
Please, I don't need a foaming at the mouth right winger to teach me who started what, and who is evil! I know, it is the Arab terrorists who are causing the violance to go out-of-hand. However, pragmatism is the way cool the tempo! Especially, when a stupid religeon is envolved!
You gave yourself away, you're an idiot.
You don't want us to tell you about how foaming at the mouth Europeans tried to wipe the Jews off the face of the earth and the United States has been paying for it ever sence?
You don't want us to tell you that we would not have these problems, in Israel, if not for the Europeans?
Where do we sign up for this hand wringing?
