Not that I'm actually proposing mass executions, that's a bit extreme. But really don't you think that if all the Sharon's and Arafat's were out of the picture the normal Jews and Palestinians could settle things over coffee? Much like how if all the Christianity insulting atheists and atheism insulting Christians were out of the way this could be settled. In the end what to both Christians and atheists want? They want what everybody wants, to be left alone to do their thing without getting hassled for it.

You are hardly the first person to make this argument. I have a hunch your brand of thinking would have fit in quite well in 1920's and 30's German society.

As it was then it could easily be now. Start down that philosopical road, and at the end you will find death camps, and the destruction of nations.
