Well, we all know that Israely's new strategy is to deliberately target terrorists and kill them. So far they've killed 11. (since the end of cease-fire)
IMHO that's the best strategy they came up with in the last couple of years.. A question - what took them so long ???? |
trial and error?
nah, keep in mind that up until 2002 the so called Palestinian Authority was in control of the teritories. 2 years of wasted time, broken agreements and many deaths. So first Israel had to bitterly realize that Arafat and his organization are no partner for peace. Afterwards all kinds od methods were tried out to stop terror. From building walls to establishing a new authority and working on several agreements. Its only NOW that Israel sees no more taboos whatsoever in completely ERASING Hamas.
as for cyrus post:
Thats the big myth, dude. people keep saying that those targeted killings will only INCREASE the amount of suicide bombers. The contrary is the truth, proved again and again in the last 3 years. The more Israel withdrew, the more confidence Hamas gained. Every single one sided cease fire was literally blown up (such as the Sbarro/dolphinarium bombings in 2001 or the Pessah massacre in 2002 or the Jerusalem bombing last month). Targetted killings however, especially those which concerned the very "elite" of the organization moved them to sign the "hudna" in the first place and will now ensure that they'll think more than once before sending out brainwashed teens. They're big heros when commanding but as soon as it affects them personally they give up!
