Please tell me why it’s unwise to identify the root cause of terrorist acts against the U.S. and then trying to address that cause.
Nothing wrong with this theory at all. I just wonder if the way we support Israel is not just a convenient scapegoat? The Palestinians that Israel is fighting and attacking are the radical ones who want to end the existence of Israel. That is not a theory. So we should support them? These people use the same tactics as other terrorists worldwide. Comparing Israel's hard line against these killers to terrorists is wrong in my opinion. I am still convinced, unfortunately, that one side is going to have to eliminate the other side or this war will never end. The sides are too entrenched in their hatred.

How would you level the playing field? How would you have the US give equal treatment to the Palestinians?

So many of the terrorists are living in a different century than the rest of us. The 6th century perhaps. They live a religion of death and I find it hard to imagine reasoning with any of them. If we walkled away from Israel and swithched our aliance over to the Palestinians do you honestly believe that they would be our friends?
