The militants have launched about 60 rockets since the truce was declared

The headline should read "arabs break their promise, launch missile attack on Israel".

My position has been that Israel must choose the border it is prepared to live and die by, get their people on the right side of it, and seal it.

Its not up to me to decide where that line should be, but they have to do it unilaterally; negotiating with their murderers is not a solution, it is the ultimate indignity, and it is pointless.

That seems to be what they are doing, they have removed these people from Gaza, and have relocated them to the West Bank. I would take that to mean that this part of the West Bank will not be returned.

The next part of the "marron peace plan" is this; having sealed the border to ordinary ground attackers, they must answer rocket attacks by moving the border forward every time a rocket clears the fence. Move the fence, bulldoze any structures that wind up on the wrong side of the fence, compensate the owners, and push them to the arab side of the fence. Repeat as necessary. You won't have to move the fence very many times before they get the message.

Nothing else will ever work. Killing the attackers, while necessary, is insufficient; there is an endless supply of misfits ready to take their place, and their arab brothers and parents don't care if they live or die, astonishingly their Israeli enemies care more for their lives than do their own people. Killing them, alone, will never end it. The only pressure point that actually transmits pain, is land. Every act of war must be answered by the permanent annexation of previously arab land.

Provocateurs would keep just enough rockets whizzing. Israel would have to keep moving the fence until it included every Muslim country.

Too big a perimeter to defend.
