"ALL CAPS IN DEFENSE OF LIBERTY IS NO VICE."

THIS WAR, LIKE THE LAST, IS A "WITHDRAWAL SYMPTOM"

  • IN NEITHER CASE DID ISRAEL GET ANY CREDIT FOR WITHDRAWING; WORSE: ITS ENEMIES GOT STRONGER.
  • THIS WAR IS STRICTLY A MOPPING UP EXERCISE: ISRAEL IS CREATING A BUFFER: SPATIALLY AND TEMPORALLY.
  • WHAT WILL THE ARAB MUSLIMS AND ISRAELIS DO WITH THIS SPACE AND TIME?
REAL PEACE WILL ONLY COME WHEN ISLAM EITHER UNDERGOES A MASSIVE (AND HIGHLY UNLIKELY) REFORM FROM WITHIN (SUCH AS SUGGESTED BY IRSHAD MANJI, OR BY SUFISM) - OR IT IS ERADICATED.

THE CHOICE IS THEIRS.

(OR OURS: WE CAN SURRENDER AND LIVE IN SERVITUDE - DHIMMITUDE - TO OUR MUSLIM OVERLORDS.)
