ISRAELI/PALESTINIAN RATIO
Reader comment on item: Hezbollah's Victory, Israel's Decline
Submitted by DENNIS CASHEN (United States), Feb 4, 2004 at 10:40
Prior to the next suicide bombing, Israel should announce a policy of collective punishment. Since the suicide attacks are aimed at innocents, after the next bombing a responding attack should be aimed at the village or neighborhood of the bomber, utilizing the ration established by this prisoner exchangeA person willing to die for those he loves will be reluctant to do so if he knows that they will suffer swift and deadly retaliation.
