If only Mashaal were like Fayad

Recently, two central issues have stood at the forefront of the public debate. The first is the "small" exchange made with Hizbullah and the second is the renewed negotiations with the Palestinian Authority.

Theoretically, there is no direct connection between the two. Actually, the negotiations with Hizbullah are closely related to the Palestinian issue.

Firstly, Nasrallah makes the release of numerous Palestinian prisoners a condition for receiving information on Israel's captured soldiers. Secondly, Hizbullah's main demand is that Israel release Samir Kuntar who murdered members of the Haran family in Nahariya in 1979. He has since turned into a chilling symbol of the inhumane brutality and cruelty of Palestinian terror.

Samuel Eichner L: There is not an easy way out of this problem, but a "combined" attack from the US and Israel (NOT NUCLEAR) will be the only way out.
Jeffrey- Jerusalem: If you think the unity of the current political leadership is the balm for the problem, then you are deluding yourself. The 1967 success was directly attributable to the miracles wrought by the Almighty for his people. How does one unify politicians caught up in their own secular ego trips? At least the late Menachem Begin was a shomer shabat. When politicians are not embarassed to admit publically that they flaunt the Torah and its laws, its little wonder that they do not have the wherewithal to bring about a lasting peace. There is no koach atsem byadi.
Andrew, Sydney (soon to be Jerusalem): Iran might be able to absorb the loss of 1 million citizens but it couldn't survive the loss of 22 million which is what it would lose in a nuclear exchange with Israel. Israel would survive a nuclear war with Iran but it should never be allowed to get to that point. Attack Iran now and expose it for the paper tiger it is. Iran's missiles are highly inaccurate without GPS (which the US will turn off) and the small percentage that will get thru Israel's missile defence screen are just as likely to hit Palestinian areas as Israeli ones.
