re: #868 drcordell

You did a pretty nice job of summarizing there. But you are off on just a few points. Of course I think that Israel needs to try and get rid of the small minority of Palestinians who wish to continue violence and hijack the peace process. The difference is, I believe that it is completely irrational to believe that this minority can ever be defeated by military force. Again, go ask the U.S. military how the counter-insurgency is going in Iraq, or Afghanistan, or Pakistan. You can’t destroy a terrorist insurgency with military power.

How do they get rid of that “small minority?”
