Reader comment on item: Bush is rewarding [Palestinian] terrorism
Submitted by Rusty Rivet (United States), Jun 25, 2002 at 21:52
Bravo, Dr.Pipes,Once again, yours is the only voice in this country that actually possesses the already clichéd "moral clarity"! It's very dangerous to overlook the mood of the arab street, overwhelmingly supporting homicide bombings. A democratic state cannot be wished upon a tribal people, nor can it be imposed.
Last Sunday, I saw a woman holding a slogan at a rally: "9/11 in America = 24/7 in Israel". When will the government understand that the success of the war on terror in Israel will determine our own success in the very same war?
