Tell the Israelis to train a bunch of snipers like Jude Law in the film "Enemy at the Gates". Give their sniper brigades publicity and make them heroes, and send out a slew of determined snipers to hide and wait for a terrorist or suicide bomber to act. Then blow them to hell.

Trust me, the Israelis have lots of great snipers, (but even more targets).

Jude Law? Do you mean the great Vasiliy Zaitsev, the Hero of the Soviet Union? I admire the man. The real story of the man was mush more exciting then that movie. With a 4x powered scope and a 7.62x56 Mosin he could pretty much nail a target in a neck from several hundred yards and hit a shape within a kilometer.

Re #118
Israel already has well-trained snipers. But they are not extensively deployed. They are used to take out high priority terrorists. If they are deployed to take out any potential Pali terrorists or attackers premptively, many Palis will die fast. EU will cry foul. But under the circumstance, that is not such a bad idea. Israel should be waging an all-out war by now, but U.S. is holding Israel back. All-out sniping will do for now
