Albert Einstein once defined insanity as the insistence of doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result. Two intifadas failed, hurting the Palestinians far more than they hurt Israel. Even Palestinians figures admit this. Nothing stiffens Israel's solidarity and resistance like a clear and present danger--Hamas should have learned this by now. The man who wrote this book is clearly insane--and so are those who take his advice.

As a retired healthcare worker (according to your website) and a PhD in Educational Psychology, perhaps you could explain in some detail what it means when you label a whole country as "paranoid" as opposed to the DSM definition regarding lone individuals. Otherwise, what you are doing is simply casting aspersions without any explanation nor any useful details. Or perhaps it's not your intention to contribute. As to Hamas recognizing that "Israel is here to stay", perhaps you could explain the the Hamas Charter principle which states that one of its goals is the "obliteration of the State of Israel". I'm sure we would all like to be enlightened by you, Jerrold.
