Big clue: I have a VERY HARD TIME caring what you, or other Americans who are to the right of the far right in Israel think. You criticize but you never have solutions. You propose harsh action that would kill more Israelis by continuing or intensifying the conflict.
Israel tried to be humane. We honestly thought we would find reasonable people among the Palestinians as we did with the Egyptians and the Jordanians.
You talk about shattered familes and dead Israelis. How many family members have you lost in Israel's wars? How many friends? Have you even lived in Israel? When you make aliyah you will have a vote in Israel, not before. In the meanwhile you tell us we're doomed, show us how we've done everything wrong, but have no legal, proper, or humane solutions. Give me a break.
Israel is MY country. I have to live or die with the consequences of Israeli government actions if I want to live in my home in Netanya. You, OTOH, are thousands of miles away throwing stones.
