You are right in that I know nothing of the kind of war where teenagers are encouraged by their clerics to commit suicide in an effort to kill as many Jews as possible in the process. It is these clerics who encourage the suicide bombers by indoctrinating them with hatred and promising them that, not only will they be rewarded in paradise, but the sins of their families will be forgiven as well. Add that to the promise of the $10,000 reward given to families who have born too many children to support, and you end up with an endless supply of willing participants. It is appalling that many, not all, of these families applaud their child's sacrifice.

What I am suggesting is to take away the incentive of suicidal bombings by promising that the families will never reap such an ill-gotten bounty. And further, the hell to all Islamists, that the youngest in their families would be subjected to Judaism teachings.

I fail to see why my suggestion is something you think I should go hide my head in the sand about, when nothing else the Israelis have tried have thwarted the suicidal bombings.

This would free them to focus on snipers and car bombs.
