Mr. Yokem,

Israel has been fighting terror with terror for centuries and gotten
nowhere. How about another aproach as terror doesn't work?
BTW, the US government has supported dictators for years. When they are no
longer usfull, they switch sides, don't even say "sorry" and fight then
for "freedom".
Don't work either. Not saying that I know the right way, but the current
way doesn't ans has not worked for centuries. Therefore time to try
something new.
