Dear Yazan, There’s nothing primitive about a weapon that causes death and destruction. The purpose of a weapon is to destroy and if it accomplishes that mission, it succeeds in its goal, primitive or not. Why is it Israel’s place to “give rights” to the Gazans? Shouldn’t the government of Gaza, democratically elected by the people, be the ones who are in charge of that? Isn’t that the government’s purpose? And what about Gaza’s allies and border with Egypt? Israel is not the only one responsible for the health and welfare of the people of Gaza and any portrayal of it as such is inaccurate. What evidence does Israel have that changes in East Jerusalem or the West Bank will change international relations? It didn’t for Gush Katif [Gaza]. I am not saying that Israel’s actions are right or wrong, but hearing everyone’s perspectives, I don’t see solutions for a viable alternative right now. So I ask you: as you see it, what should Israel do that would bring an end to the bombings? What options are there? Thanks for your comment, Yazan.
