JERUSALEM (CNN) --Intense violence broke out in the Mideast on Tuesday, leaving five Israeli civilians dead and up to 10 Palestinian children injured in an explosion at a school in separate incidents.

One Israeli was killed and 11 were injured when a suicide bomber, who also died, triggered an explosion on a bus as it approached the main station in Afula, close to the West Bank in northern central Israel, police said.

"I think he is personally responsible for deaths of not only 1,100 Palestinians but also for almost 300 Israelis because of his policies," Barghouti said.

Barghouti is a vicious animal, free of guilt, shame or understanding.

The Isrealis are starting to figure it out. The Palestinian civilian population is even more vulnerable than their own. If the Palestinian people want to make war on the Isrealis civilian population, their own women and children are more vulnerable. Isreal does not have to lose troops to kill them. Both peoples are already down the road into a new phase of warfare and the Palestinians are the ones who made civilians an official deliberate target. Isrealis hatred is reaching to a point that they will now deliberately retaliate against Palestinian civilians. Just like Northern Ireland, this phase of violence will not stop until it burns itself out in blood or one side kills off the other. There is not much the world nor the US can do about it.

Time for a scorched earth policy. If it moves, kill it. If it doesn't move, burn it down. If it doesn't burn, blow it up. Israel can either bleed to death from a thousand wounds, or it can start to punch with fists of iron. Time is running out. Better start punching.

"Time for a scorched earth policy."

Ditto, Erik.
We just need to reassure the Israelis that we ARE behind them in this. The last thing they need to worry about is being stabbed in the back, (Remember the Suez debacle).

Or one side decides that living there is not worth it and emigrates en-mass to somewhere else

Not a bad idea. Start placing untraceable car bombs in Pallie areas and set them off. There are plenty of very Arab looking Jews who can drive these cars in Pallie areas. These Jews are the ones driven from Arab nations after 1948.
