I'd have to agree, Saint... I've been there, and have witnessed the amazing lifeforms the area breeds.
I was in Eilat with an old buddy of mine when I saw, from behind, this wavy-haired brunette, dressed in white shorts, a little tee-shirt and flip flops, like she'd just come in off the beach. We were at a fast food place at the time. To our great anticipation, she turns around... Cute as a button--except for the Uzi hanging across her chest.
And to Lada,
I don't know who you mean by normal 'people'... Normal people tend to understand two things:
1.) Israel is less interested in oppression than they are in survival
2.) By punishing Israel in order to force them to 'think' about what they're doing, you're in effect rewarding the suicide bombers. Not only that, but you're encouraging them to persist in their tactics whenever a future issue arises--have we been over this before?
If you think there's an easy way out of it, and sanctions against the Israelis is the first logical step, then I guess I've overestimated your intelligence yet again.
