What I think he fails to consider is that his proposed solution has been attempted at various points in the 70s, the 80s, and the 90s, and each and every time, Israel's foes have used such period of magnamity to redouble the efforts against them.
No Don , each time since the 73 war that Israel has tried the military option it has failed miserably , yet each time some rather painful negotiations have resulted in a bi-lateral agreement it has worked out better for them .

standard israeli procedure for when militants hide behind kids is to brng in a sniper, to try to take out the terrorist behind them.
Is it really ? Evidence would suggest that the standard proceedure is to bring in a tank and use them nice little special flechette munitions to clear a path to identify any possible miltant after the crowd has been flattened into a bloody mess .

80%.
Hold on there Rythmic , that poll of Hamas supporters carried out by the Israelis only said just over 75% not 80% but that does mean that Hooah with his "25%" has managed to get the survey completely arsewise .

I am kinda confused on how people believe that diplomacy has always worked?
Well thats a hard one , can you find a similar guerilla war where it hasn't had to be solved by diplomacy ?
Yes there are lots that come up with short terms swings...... that turn into roundabouts and put them back where they started , but can you think of any long term ones ?

Well I must say Hooah you have shocked me with your ....
but i will say that if Avigdor Lieberman is elected, it will be a disaster.
... that perhaps after all you can sometimes think beyond the "I support Israel" or "I support the pally" lines .
What a pleasant surprise

I think it's time to put this guy on my ignore list
Is that a promise ? please say it is so little child
