Honest, that was one of the most anti Israel posts I have read in a long time.

As if they could do that and not be utterly and completely ostracized, even by the US.

Take back enough land to create a very large buffer and NEVER give the land back.

Kill everyone or STFU is just about the most worthless advice i’ve ever read.

That wasn't what he was suggesting.

His point was that the Gaza disengagement was a strategic mistake.

It gave jihadists an unfettered space to plan attacks upon the heart of Israel.

And the continued subsidizing of Hamas is not doing anything to make Israel more secure.

More than once, Amir has said that something the enemy does gives Israel the opportunity to settle the score by doing something that they wanted to do anyway but they were wary of world opinion.

He repeated this yesterday or the day before about Gaza.

And he has also said that Israel did not want the headache of governing the Gaza Strip any longer. He was the “mayor” (or whatever the equivalent term is) of Jericho at the time that Israel governed Gaza, and he is extremely well informed on the whole issue.

This makes me think that the whole issue is more complex than it seems to us. The whole conflict may be in a sense Israel’s defense on that particular border.
