"Someone needs to NUKE the Palestinians."

You just don't get it. The main reasons why the Palestinian attackers are doing what the Syrian Air Force and the Egyptian Army failed to - defeat regional-superpower Israel - is that the Palestinians, by "hugging the enemy," are not vulnerable to Israel's advantages. (Who wants to nuke an enemy 300 yds. away? Who will use its fleet of fighter-bombers against frontline combatants - when they are literally so close to major neighborhoods of its own capital that the shrapnel would hit them?)

The other reason why the Palestinian resistance is defeating Israel is that it is now a "leaderless resistance" - something urged a year ago on Palestinians by a Lebanon-based TV station run by Hezbollah that is popular with Palestinians. How do you nuke or use an Apache chopper against an enemy that is very largely unconnected cells of 1-3 Palestinians not reporting to any command structure - but instead ambushes Jews and takes their weapons?

There are lessons here for dissidents in the U.S.

Funny, I don't see Israel as being defeated. Quite the contrary, they appear to be just warming up a little to the task at hand.

A nuke is definitely out, but there are other ways. Use a vaccine on your own people and any palestinians that want to live in peace and have a record of doing so. Then release a biological agent on those that don't.

Sometimes survival calls for ugly responses.

My fellow Freeper, I didn't intend to be taken literally. It was wishful thinking-- merely that, and nothing more.
