And Israel - how far have they gotten by coming down very hard on the Palestinans?



How can you combat a group that is willing to strap a bunch of explosives to their bodies and blow themselves up on a bus full of schoolchildren? The only way to deter such attacks would be to make it known that every family member of every suicide bomber would be searched out and eliminated, and I don't think that even the Israeli secret police has the stomach to do that.
