Israel Folds, Now the US

First, Israel humiliates itself with its terrorist release installment plan, betraying Zionism's promise to enhance Jewish dignity. Now, the US humiliates itself by giving in to potential terrorist threats, betraying its pledge never to surrender to terrorism.

The result is to prove to Islamic supremacists that their goal of subjugating infidels as dhimmis under Islamic rule is happening, that they are fulfilling the Koranic command to "strike terror into the hearts of the unbelievers". That's not a very good deterrent strategy.
