re: #208 Obdicut

The enemy is not just the Palestinians, though. It is basically the rest of the Middle East.

Even if all of Palestine was conquered and every Palestinian either expelled or a good Israeli citizen, the attacks on Israel would continue. They might be less severe, they might not be— the bordering Arab states might, if Israel had fully annexed Palestine, be more than happy to provide self-haven for those mortars and rockets. Hell, they might finally create a new Palestine, just for that purpose.

Ohh but they would be fewer and further between. The Palestinians are the problem they are because the Arab nations had direct conflict knocked out of them.
