You are arguing against a straw man because you don't have anything to say about my actual argument or position. The only one talking about emulating bastards is you, ascribing it to me.

You can be as kind as you like about it, but Palestinians who vote for Hamas are not going to live at peace with Israelis on the same land. Nor are they innocent.

Puppies dogs are cute, flowers are pretty, sugar is sweet. Whoppee doo, none of it has anything to do with the actual problem.

People concretely unwilling to live with others, who daily want them all murdered and rejoice at it, cannot be cajoled into loving kindness with a piece of candy. It is an utter delusion.

Israelis require sufficient territory to ensure their security, and can't get it while murderers live on that territory. They can eject them, or they can stand around and die.

The same unreality continues in practices like leaving the borders open for the sake of trade and daily work. After a couple of car bombs, perhaps. After literally decades, the last of which has seen non-stop suicide bombings, it is just clinical denial of reality.

They won't live with Jews. Jews can't live with them. Either Jews live alone or they don't live. You don't have another choice in the matter.

The muslims do - they've been left that choice, and they'd still be left that choice. They can change their behavior any time they like. It is entirely voluntary in every detail. But they are free to be bastards. And if they choose to be, treating them like puppy dogs is stark raving mad.

re :You are arguing against a straw man because you don't have anything to say about my actual argument or position.

Yes I do as I have stated over and over again.

1) It is unworkable from a military point of view.

2) There is no way Israel will carry out such a operation.

From the military point of view.

Clearing an annexing a piece of land, this will require large scale military resources to clean the land, move the population and defend that land and border.

Problem 1 where will the population go, well into the land not occupied which will be a breeding ground for new Islamic groups to continue striking at Israel.

Israel will then be forced to occupy even more land, carry out the same operation displace even more people create more camps.

Displacing all these people first from Lebanon, to where Syria, Jordan, both these countries have Islamic movements, such an action could destabilize these nations leading to Islamic revolutions Syria is halfway there.

How far will Israel have to go occupy the whole of Lebanon, Syria and Jordan, Egypt is having problems as well there has been an increases in extremist Islamic activity in that country, what happens if that country falls and used as a springboard to terrorist activity.

Number two.

You are talking about a depopulation operation, I don't think you know how incredibly complex they are.

What are the Rules of Engagement.

What happens if a town refuses to budge a whole city made of up civilians, men , women and children. What action can you take.

Its easy for you sitting at a PC to talk glibly about such things but to carry out a operation in reality is whole different matter.

And just a reminder we are talking about Lebanon, not about Palestinian.
