I have some very interesting numbers to throw at you, please indulge me.

Did you know there have been 13,890 attacks on Israel since September of 2000? This does not include rock throwing incidents.

4,379 people walking around dismembered or with nails and screws lodged in their internal organs.

593 babies, mothers, fathers, grandmothers, grandfathers, innocents massacred in pizzerias, cafes, shops, bakeries, buses, every where.

If this were to happen in the United States, proportionately we would have counted 201,434 injured, 27,278 massacred. This is equal to 9 September 11th attacks in the span of 2 years. How long would we sit for that? Would President George W. Bush consider our response to be heavy handed, as he has labeled the Israelis? I don’t think so. In fact, I know he nor you would, we would want blood now!

Yet the American and international press continue to condemn Israel. A media watchdog group has documented 78% of stories carried in the American press are negative of Israel. ABC’s Linda Albin doesn’t miss taking a shot at the Jews every time she appears on AM Tampa Bay.

No one wants to talk about the homicide bombers taking innocent Israeli lives, little babies in strollers, old women waiting at bus stops. Am I the only one outraged?

And still there are those who demand a Palestinian state? Is this how you reward this kind of behavior?

Negative reinforcement has never worked, nor will it work here. Never negotiate with a terrorist, never grant him statehood.

That's how I see it!
