This is rich, Israel has been trying to get the ragheads to form a government to turn these crapholes over to since ‘67 and they can’t come up with one.
And then broke the truce after a few years, as soon as he felt he could win. Truces with Hamas are worthless, and always seem to follow the pattern "we'll promise peace in exchange for X, and as soon as we have X then we'll violate all our promises"
You insult the honorable PM Chamberlain. He eventually learned and declared war on Hitler, less than one year after holding up that paper.
Carter still doesn't get it.
Somebody’s got to step up and be a great politician and get things straightened out between Israel and Palestine. It may take a man of the greatness of Gandhi, representing the Palestinians, to pull it off. But something’s got to give. The Israeli/Palestinian conflict generates more ill will amongst the Muslims than anything else. Until it’s resolved, there will be no end to suicide bombers targeting Israel, Europe and America.
“”According to Umdat as-Salik, a medieval summary of Shafi’i jurisprudence, hudnas with a non-Muslim enemy should be limited to 10 years: “if Muslims are weak, a truce may be made for ten years if necessary, for the Prophet made a truce with the Quraysh for that long, as is related by Abu Dawud” (’Umdat as-Salik, o9.16).””
Mohammad also broke that truce after 2 years.
Carter is an ass, no question about it.
(snicker!) ;-)
“Hamas” might agree to no more attacks for ten years, but what about all the splinter groups supported and encouraged by Hamas? Israel would be insane to agree to this. Unfortunately, that pretty much describes much of their present leadership.
BAD DEAL
Someone has confused days with years.
Any truce will be broken in days, and we know who will break it.
Any respite will be used to re-arm.
Rockets will fly before the ink is dry.
Someone needs to start engraving ol’ Jimmah’s name on the Nobel Peace Prize. They love to award it to morons and traitors.
A- You can’t trust anything a Muslim says in negotiations because they have the moral leeway to lie if it serves their interest.
B- Why only 10 years?
I would suggest that Israel remember what happened with the “10-year truce” that Mohammed made with Mecca.
This article is a little short of the details found in some others on this topic, which include the tidbit that Mashaal said that Hamas will never recognize Israel.
Do you negotiate with a rattlesnake? Do you “straighten things out” with a Great White Shark? Do you come to an agreement with a cobra? If you do, you’re an idiot.
So what’s your solution?
We won’t kill you for ten years if you give us what we want. That’s not a deal....That’s a threat. Carter is sooooo dumb.
Let’s fire up the wayback machine and go back in time and ask WWSD - What would Sherman do?
(cool electronic cartoon sounds)
“War is the remedy our enemies have chosen, and I say give them all they want.”
“My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.”
“You cannot qualify war in harsher terms than I will.”
“I would make this war as severe as possible, and show no symptoms of tiring till the South begs for mercy.”
“The scenes on this field would have cured anybody of war.”
“War is at best barbarism. Its glory is all moonshine... War is hell.”

Israel should give Palestinians their pre-1948 borders.
