The sad truth is that the future of the Muslims is uncertain. For the Islamic world, the status quo is no longer sustainable and time is not on its side. The Salafi jihadists are gaining strength in Egypt, Syria, Iran, Turkey Jordan, Lebanon, Sudan, Iraq, F. Arbia, Yemen, Algeria, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Indonesia, Malaysia and among the Fakestininans, and warn that an apocalyptic Armageddon between the Muslim world and the West is approaching. Whether moderate Muslim intellectuals and Western-educated Muslim technocrats will be able to bring on an Islamic Renaissance before rising radical Islam draws them all into an unwinnable nuclear confrontation remains to be seen. Their success in doing so is by no means assured.

You are ignorant and delusional enough in your bias against Israel that you seem to forget that in the next war Israel will respond with overwhelming force. Israel will be hurt but your genocidal criminal Islamonazi heros will be obliterated

congratulations for your clear and informative approach to the issue.come here where you really belong instead of staying in that primitive soft islamic two faced nation.

In 2006, Jewish leaders did not ask their people to leave, but 70% of them ran away from the North in fear of Hizbullah missiles without ever setting eyes on a Lebanese guerrilla. At the January 2007 Herzliya Conference, Israeli Minister of Defense Amir Peretz announced a revision in Israel's military doctrine, adding defense to its three traditional constituents – deterrence, preemption and offense. Head of the Strategic Division in the IDF Plans and Policy Directorate, Brigadier General Udi Dekel, expanded on this theme. According to his statement at the same conference, the defensive component of the revised military doctrine applies to Israel’s home front.

Instead of drawing the obvious lessons from past experience, the IDF persisted in its adherence to firepower – buttressed by high technology – as its main response to the rocket issue. When this response failed once again in the opening phases of the 2006 Lebanon War, the IDF remained clueless. During the 1973, retrieved charred bodies of of Israeli pilots from fallen plans were found strapped by steel chains. were those Haredi suicide bombers? as #9 said "we better fight than surrender and if surrounded, we take out as many terrorist scum as possible before being murdered". Japanese kamikaze type? Was it the prevailing Israel's democracy at that era?
