Israelis should seriously consider abandoning Israel
I dont think that Israelis or the Americans would attempt to modify the culture of Islam.
Americans already do. Muslim dictatorships propoganded that all non-muslim must be destroyed as enemies and the idea entred the muslim culture. Now americans in Iraq and Afganistan try to make Islam more tolerant.
The ends in that case do NOT justify the means.
They killed the whole street and no more USA soldiers died. And no more strikes back. And Germans understood, that they are in deep ass. Does this justify the means
Arabs will always find ways to justify their terrorism. If we do not respond on their terror they think that it's sign of weakness and kill us again. If westrike back lightly they justify terror with words of avenge. We must strike as USA do- one serious strike and almost no terrorism in the whole country.
So the Jews run away and you reward terrorism?
Which encoroges more terrorism. Soon all the jews are dead. Rewarding terrorism is innane.
Would Hamas be attacking Jews if they were separated by the Atlantic? Many Jews fled Nazi Germany, I'd say that was a wise move, true? Let's face the cause of this terrorism, Israel was carved out of Arab lands recently and alot of Arabs are p!ssed. The question becomes whether or not the terrorists have a more legitimate claim to the land, and I doubt they do, but it's possible some of them are the actual descendents of people who did have a legitimate claim before the state of Israel was created. The irony is that they may be killing Jews who are also descendents of people with the same legitimate claim.
You expect Iraq or Afghanistan to produce LESS terrorism??
Long term mon ami!
The terrorism is not the Arabs as a people, merely a tiny number, with widespread support. And you cant persecute them for having a point of view, nor shuold you make them all suffer for the actions of a few. History would judge that to be idiotic at best.

In war, one has the right to prevent the enemy from making war on you, like self defence, using proportionate force. Historians may argue that it was necessary with Nazi germany, I argue that it is not necessary with the Palestinians, towns and cities, or the entire Muslim race!
doing what the terrorists want ie fleeing/dieing does reward terrorism.
Which is why in practise I dont support leaving Israel, albeit a good idea in principle.
There are other ways to deal with terrorism than bombing their civilians, and modding their cultures, violating their societies. Carrot, the stick plainly doesnt work, I dont see the Israeli bombing of Gaza etc having any effect at stopping terrorism, far from it.

Muxec, do you really think Arabs will stop attacking Jews if the Israeli government launches this massive strike? I'd think it would just create more people willing to die in attacks. Your analogy to the US soldier and the retaliation ignores that there were obviously very few East Germans willing to die to kill a US soldier.
Exactly how many years was there no state of Israel before 1948? Ignoring the aberration of the crusades, that had been Muslim land for centuries! Are you going to say that England should be returned to the Basques and the Portugese, simply because the original Stone Age settlers were Iberian??

If you want to get me into demographics, you may wish to learn that the Jewish race first came about in what is now Northern Iraq.
The first Homo Sapians to settle what is now Israel were the ancestors of the Arabs. If anything, they have the strongest claim on the land, if you want to go back as far as you can... and I dont see the neanderthals anywhere... although looking at D!ck Chaney....

While USSR was governed by dictature no terrorism was in Chechnya. All terrorists were in Syberia, jails or graves.
Chechnyans only made their move for independence after the Soviet bloc began crumbling and other states obtained independence. I think it's funny you want Diss banned given what you've advocated.
I dont need to dignify that with a response do I? How can you justify attacking a people based on their point of view??
While USSR was governed by dictature no terrorism was in Chechnya. All terrorists were in Syberia, jails or graves
You use dictator very loosely there. Chechnia wanted independence AFTER the fall of the USSR. There was no terrorism before then from the Chechens, thus there were no or few chechen terrorists in siberia.
