No, I don’t think so.


This morning somebody who wants to keep the US engaged in that hopeless morass of disaster, the Middle East, said on the radio that the deep-thinkers say the Islamist madness in the Middle East cannot be resolved, the problems of the Middle East cannot be solved, until the decades-old Israeli-Palestinian conflict is put to bed.

Phooey.

If every Jew got on a plane and flew out the region tomorrow – second only in Muslim wishful thinking to all of them being slaughtered overnight – why the hell would ISIS put down its arms?

Why would the Taliban knock it off in Pakistan and Afghanistan?

Why would the Muslim Brotherhood shrug and walk away from Egyptian politics?

Why would Muslim fighters all over the world suddenly put down their guns and go home?

And when you consider the ferocity of the hatred they face, why would you think the Jews of Israel would even seriously consider either the militarily terrifying two-state solution or the demographically terrifying one-state solution so dear to the hearts of so many left-wing Jews who don't live there?

Pshaw.

If going on fighting pretty much forever remains by far their safest choice, why would the Jews of Israel not just go on fighting pretty much forever?
