Losing Battle For Sderot

Submitted by Cohen, May 22, 2007 03:35

Hard to believe there are people who stil reason this way after four years of 'liberating' Iraq. Sure, it's easy enough to experiment with bombing innocent civilians from the safety of one's cozy desk on the other side of the world. But if we truly are incapable of finding a true peaceful and lasting solution to the problems in the Middle East, then, yes, the only solution will always seem to be just the sort of indiscriminate final solution proposed by armchair generals like Mr. Halkin.
