True
"...the numbers are coming in..and people who have careers in answering for the economy are bringing heavy pressure to bear on Sharon concerning this.
This is legit..Bibi Netanyahu has better ties to business enterprise and economic growth..waiting in the wings.."
That I don't know about. The violence I see coming will involve significant mobilization of reserves as I doubt the Israeli govt. will use NBC weapons on the Palestinians even if Hezbollah starts firing rockets from Lebanon. And such a mobilization will have a drastic effect on Israel's economy.
"Sharon knows He must act soon..or see His reign ended."
I disagree. He is pretty much paralyzed due to his need for the Labor Party coaltion. They have to be willing to let Sharon act, which is why I've been focusing on attacks against the secular Israeli Jews, as opposed to settlers and the Israeli Taliban. IMO, only when the seculars feel threatened will Labor let Sharon do anything effective. Though another way for the Palestinians to set off Labor would be to use children as suicide bombers. At that poin the Palestinians would have thoroughly dehumanized themselves.
Keep in mind that the U.S. has gotten in that frame of mind - we're familiar with it. The U.S. govt. was going to spray Japanese cities from the air with poison gas had the A-Bomb not produced surrender, and that decision was made in June 1945 before Allied SIGINT decyphered the Imperial GHQ order to Field Marshall Teruachi in July 1945 to begin genocide of all the Allied civilians and POW's they could catch starting with the impending British invasion of Malaya/Singapore.

I've read the Military History Quarterly article by Polmar & Allen (both reputable historians) in question. The discussion at this URL is a fair summary of what was about to happen.
The Japanese side of the war in the Pacific escaped being uglier than the Nazis' only by a narrow margin. I did not exaggerate in my first post in this thread by saying that the Japanese surrendered when the Emperor realized we really would kill all of them. The Japanese's suicidal bravery and atrocities gave America the political will to commit genocide. We really would have done it.
The Palestinians are IMO getting the Israelis into that dark place too.
"There is nothing like money concerns to finally get a Jew focused."
That is racist and I wouldn't be surprised if the moderators kill your post.
"....Israel is beginning to find its focus..the Palestinians would go for white flags now if they had any brains...but they don't..they only have hatred.
Israeli's have a very realistic philosophy ..."We wish to exist..and we wish to enjoy life"...this thinking will be hopping into Apaches.. F-16's..Merkavas...and M-113's soon.
Conflict is resolved by the side with the greater will and resolve....Israel will win this conflict..they understand all too well whats at stake"
Not yet.
