It would seem that everyone and his cousin is demanding peace. I say it is Idealistic. They say it takes two to tangle. However, it only takes one to wage war. Moreover, if one side puts their weapons aside, it won’t take long for the other side to win.
And so it is, Hamas is crying for a cease fire. It is because they are losing badly. What the Palestinians don’t say is that, the instant they put their weapons down, they will start making ready for the next surprise attack, in which they will kill, maim and rape as soon as the are again ready.
The idealistic people think they have the option of stopping the war. What they are really doing is encouraging the Palestinians of Gaza. If they had kept their mouths shut and stood aside, the war would be over and we’d have gotten many of the hostages back. However, they send in food, medicine and hope to the HAMAS. That is not the way to win a war. When you try to fight that way, it cost more lives for both sides. The way to bring it to an end is to have a quick and decisive win. No one wins a war like this. They just go on and on and people keep dying. However, it is the type of war the power hungry win. They would like to go in there and wrestle power from the current prime minister, no matter who he or she might be. It is their method. It is how they work. It is how they succeed.
