I've said it once I'll say it again. Ignore Hamas in the Peace deal and let Israel bomb their valuable infrastructures while warning well in advance the targets to let civilians leave the area like Clinton did in Serbia.Yes, Western political fiats have fueled the hate towards America...Our needs for an energy supply overshadowed our common sense, to just buy the Oil at the cost of supporting King/Dictators at the cost of feeding their people. Islam, just sees Israel of an extension of Western Power Politics for stealing oil, their people's wealth...
Israel is seen as a Western Lackey to keep them in line.
What Israel must do is to accept a Palestinian State and help that state succeed by using common sense by creating jobs...She must become part of the Fabric of the ME, she should understand that American non-reliance on oil with the new technology of franking
will pull back on its support for its client state. Europe is still dependent but making deals with the Russians...
I see it today, with Obama and the world as witness by the approval of non-member statehood in the UN membership to the 67 borders...
Yes Israel will ignore the International norms which gave her birth...She is the least like nation behind N. Korea and Iran in world polls...
We're all sick of the ME and its wars...Boycotts of Israel are gaining steam..."The writing is on the wall!"
History marches on, Israel, or no Israel...its their choice if they can read between the lines.
So help us understand that Islamic terrorism is actually our fault. Great. Got it. I guess the only downside to that admission is that we're left to build new excuses why Islamic societies are continually dysfunctional even without the US supporting islamist dictators.
So we're back to asking you to help us understand how anyone convinces Hamas to abandon it's Islamic ideology.
Israel has the Human Right to defend itself from violence.
After the Peace, give Fatah the military means to subdue Gaza and hold free elections in a reasonable time.
That time should be used to normalize Gaza with financial incentives.
Ignoring the islamist terrorist organization that was put into office by those who voted for islamist terrorists puts your proposal in serious question. Secondly, It begs the question: how committed are the Palestinian arabs to peaceful coexistence when wait for it . here it comes they voted for an islamist terrorist syndicate to govern their mini-caliphate.
I suspect what youre not accounting for is that Wahabbism/Salafism is a natural outgrowth of the strict conservatism of Islamic legal thought / attitudes and its progressive estrangement from the modern world.
More broadly, Why is Israel, or any external entity responsible for cleaning up the trash which is Hamas? Im trying to forge a timeline wherein the Pal-arabs agree to allow Israel unimpeded access to bomb Hamas targets. You dont seem well thought out on this.
Consequently, we need to come to grips with if (not necessarily when), the Pal arabs are evcer going to be able to negotiate a settlement to the issue of borders. In addition, I think you need to come to grips with acknowledging that the Pal/arabs have shown no inclination for true democratic institutions that are separated from and not subordinate to theocratic (sharia) principles.
Ultimately, Sharia worshippers reject fundamental premises of constitutional governance and democratic republics: the fundamental proposition that the governed have a right to make law for themselves irrespective of any theocratic code; the republican democracy guaranteed by a Constitution; freedom of conscience; individual liberty (including in matters of personal privacy and sexual preference); freedom of expression (including the liberty to analyze and criticize theocratic codes and practices); economic liberty (including private property); equality (including equality of men and women and of Muslims and non-Muslims); freedom from cruel and unusual punishments; an unequivocal condemnation of terrorism (one that does not rationalize barbarity as legitimate resistance); and an abiding commitment to deflate and resolve political controversies by the ordinary mechanisms of federalism and democracy, not at the business end of an AK-47.
Be honest did you ever really expect that Pal-arabs would allow Israel to bomb out of existence the government they voted for?
