Saryctos Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 Why aren't Palestinians doing something about it? If there's a hungry dog in the room and someone lobs a piece of meat onto your crotch you throw it back at them, you don't let it bite your balls. If you have reason to suspect there's a weapons cache near your home, or if you've heard rocket fire coming from your local area, go yell at them to go away. I have no idea if there's any outcry against hamas inside Palestine, but I certainly have never heard anything about it. There's a pretty simple explanation for why everything's exploding around you, if you can't get away from it, go solve the problem. What if Israel starts offering rewards for dead hamas militants, or weapons from weapons caches? The only way to end a terrorist meme is to take the people away from them. If they start turning against them, others will see that it is possible to do something about it, and if the benefits of defying their existence are immediately attainable people will come around. Both peoples stand to gain from a peaceful relationship, unfortunately hamas does not. They just need to get the word out that destroying hamas is far easier than attempting to destroy Israel. And there's no way that anyone would even start to think this without an immediate return on their efforts, which wouldn't really happen without an outside source of benefit.
