O.k., quick quesiton. What would an analysis of say UN Resolutions or Statements from European Governments show in terms of lines spent criticizing Israel and lines spent criticizing Palestine? What sort of message does it send to the Palestinians when the Europeans consent to the "Bush Doctrine" applying to everyone but the Palestinians? Israel has been attacked by terrorists - it is the God-given right to Israel, and enshrined in the UN Charter, that Israel has the right to defend itself. Since Arafat either can't or won't control the terrorists, Israel has the right to defend itself - especially since Israel has already tried the "withdrawal of forces and negotiation" route and was rewarded with my terrorism. > Can you provide evidence for the international > community being "hell-bent on > rewarding terrorism"?

Yes. 1) Find me an example of a European leader saying in recent days the simple truism "We don't negotiate with terrorists, and we hardly expect Israel to either." 2) Find me an example of a European leader who has not been proposing that Israel should concede to terrorist demands - such as withdrawal of forces, recognition of a Palestinian State, etc. 3) It is a simple fact that if Israel does do any of those things in the current environment of daily suicide attacks- the terorrists will claim it as a victory for terrorism. And what's more = they will be right. God help us all. JDG ===== ---------------------------------------------------------- John D.
