A Thought Experiment: What if Israel did nothing?
So what if, instead, Israel simply did nothing? What if they stopped sending rockets over to Gaza and announced to the world that they’re not going to respond to this terrorism any further.
It might not be as crazy as you think. One of the ways that Israel’s enemies legitimize their hatred toward her is by illustrating all of the Israeli “aggression.” So, you take away response, you take away aggression, and you take away the legitimating tool that Arabs use in the region.
We know that Hamas can’t take out Israel. Israel’s existence is not at stake here. They have nuclear weapons. If push comes to shove they could wipe Palestine out. So why not try non-response?
