Reader comment on item: Mr. Olmert Visits Washington
in response to reader comment: END WITHDRAWAL FROM TERRITORY; DO NOT GIVE UP LAND

Submitted by John R (United States), May 19, 2006 at 16:01

I remember 2 suicide bombings every week in Israel. And Israel kept on attacking with tanks and guns, then another 2 suicide bombings followed in a week. The cycle went on and on. It's not happening now, is it? Once the Israeli miltary stopped and they began withrawal, the suicide bombings I think have dissapeared. Haven't heard one lately. Something is definitely going on and apparently what Israel has been doing is working, and they know it , that's why they're withrawing. And even if they experience another suicide bombing, it'd be 1 in a very long time as opposed to 2 every week. Continue the withrawal.

John R.
