Tk,
Mr. Kraft's article IMO cuts through the BS. The central theme being we destroy them! You cannot negotiate or rehabilitate these terrorists. You must kill them.
What is occurring in Israel right now is brought about by those (Olmert, Rice, and perhaps POTUS) who lose focus. They begin to look at the big picture, not unlike yourself, and fail to see the forest for the trees. This in no way is meant to be an insult to you.
If Israel stops now Hezbollah wins. Nasrallah wins as does Iran and Syria. If the cease fire occurs before Hezbollah and Nasrallah are destroyed then we (the western world) will suffer the consequences.
Those who concentrate on the big picture rather than focus on the cause are often students of history...........in rote only. They can recite it but they never learn from it.
When Hezbollah killed our Marines we failed to focus on the cause. When Buckley was kidnapped and killed we failed to focus. When our embassy in Iran was invaded we lost focus. The menace grows while our articulate and analytical civilian leaders continue to examine the big picture.
We must fight them now and destroy them now. I was much fonder of POTUS when he talked the talk and told the sponsors of terrorism that they would suffer the same fate as the terrorists. I fear that too many talented and bright individuals, similar to yourself, have caused him to lose that focus that you believe will result in our demise.
There are those times when someone needs their ass kicked.
