That is what jumps out at me. I see a threat here- make your decision, terrorists or no terrorists. There will be consequences to the decision, so choose wisely. I am asking Israel to back off to give you room to make a wise choice. Now make the wise choice. Or else

My sincere question is - hasn't this been tried before? How many times has Israel come to the diplomatic table peacefully, only to have more murders of their civilians? What makes this current promise/threat by Bush any different?

What could make it a difference is that GWB means it.

Not saying it hasn't been tried before.

I am saying it appears that is what is being tried now.
