I don't think so. If they get @ss-whupped enough times, they'll wise up. Problem is, the United States is continually holding Israel back from solving the problem.

I feel your frustration there. You could be right, and I sometimes hate US holding Israel back. I don't believe kicking their butts real bad will make a permanent impression. Israel may even have 100 years of peace if they were unleashed, but it would take an oppressive maintainance program to keep Palistinians down, and they would still be doing the suicide bomber thing all the while, garnishing sympathy from rogue nations and Hollywood's finest, not to mention constant killings of Israelis and other Jews around the globe. This wouldn't be just a PA thing either, it would be against the entire Arab world, and even the entire Muslim world, what with their 1.3 billion and growing numbers.
The WOT is a permanent state, IMO, and now we(U.S.)are in the thick of it for good. It will never end.
