Dr. Pipes, I agree with your comments, as depressing as they may be.

Just how long will a patient stricken with cancer debate his tumor.

How much life force has to be extinguished before it dawns on the patient that surgery and chemo therapy are the only chance for survival.

Saudi Arabia, Syria, Iran, Hizbullah, Hamas, Islamic Jihad, etc. are cancers that have already begun to metastasize.

A two state solution will not work for very long for reasons too numerous to elaborate here.

In the end, Israel will have no choice but to defend itself with a ferocity and determination not imaginable today.
