Reader comment on item: Admitting Israel's Unilateral Withdrawals from Lebanon and Gaza Were Mistakes
Submitted by Rebecca Moulds (United States), May 27, 2008 at 23:04
Hasn't the Israeli government learned anything by their continuing appeasement processes? They give up land, and the Qassams keep coming.
Wasn't it Albert Einstein who coined the phrase: " Insanity: doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results." ?
When Israel realises that it must stop caving in to the surrounding bullies, then positive changes will take place. Until that time, however, it remains in a stalemate position.
