My criticism is not with Jews or the people of Israel.. it is with the government of both sides who can't seem to work out a lasting peace accord.
I put the ode on Israel to fix this because they are militarily superior, but seem to lack simple foresight to realize that tit-for-tat responses only lead to more violence and escalation. How can we arm such a narrow-minded government?

So because they're better armed, they have to do anything and everything for peace?
Israel offered peace a couple of years ago. They were willing to make huge concessions to the Palestinians. The Palestinians said no, walked away, and went back to bombing market places.
The Palestinians don't want peace. They don't want land or a country or anything. They want to be victims forever and continue killing Jews all in the name of being oppressed, even though Israel offered to give Palestine most of the things they said they wanted.
