Peace through strength
Reader comment on item: The Way to Peace
Submitted by Bob Donvan (United States), Jan 8, 2017 at 07:47
A well thought out piece. I've thought for years that because Israel is wishy-washy on how to treat the so-called Palestinians they encourage the very behavior they want to stop.
Leading and winning needs to be encouraged or we will never see the end of so-called Palestinian terrorism.
