2 FOX News Journalists Kidnapped By Palestinian Gunman in Gaza City
Boy, that didn't take long, did it? Less than 24 hours from the time the "cease-fire" went into agreement.
I mean, the terrorists didn't even wait for their new munitions supplies from Syria and Iran before acting up again.
"Peace" agreements don't mean very much when one side never has and never will have any plans to honor them.
Thinking that it is possible to negotiate with any "representatives" of the Caliphate at this point is total fantasy. Thinking appeasement of any sort, whether it is in regard to the Golan Heights, Gaza, Shebaa Farms, or any other insignificant part of desert, will actually bring peace in our time is similarly ludicrous.
There will never be peace, because it is almost a guarantee that the Islamofascist side of any conflict will not honor any "peace" agreement.
Which leaves, by my count, exactly one other option. A bloody, violent, and disgusting option, but one that might be totally necessary. It might be the worst solution for all sides, as Pope Benedict XVI recently stated, but at the same point other options seem to disappear rapidly.
One could even make the argument that this would now be a just war per Catholic teaching as ALL other options have now been exhausted......thoughts?

So much for that cease-fire

That might be a rather hard sell for the Vatican, but it's worth pondering. It's a cliche, but it's a cliche worth repeating - the absence of war is not peace. At what point is the laying down of arms an actually immoral act?
Francase - Remember Iraq has well shown that hardline Shia groups with ties to Iran (such as Hezbollah) aren't the natural allies of generally secular Sunni nationalists (such as the PLO or Hamas).
The Ottoman Empire wasn't a natural ally of Kaiser Wilhelm, nor was Japan a natural ally of Germany. But they unite on some grounds - and in this case, those grounds are Israeli.
