Yeah, because that policy has really worked for the Isrealis. They've been bulldozing entire towns in resonse to terrorist action for years, and that hasn't escalated the hatred and inspired more terrorists at all. No. Not at all. Not one.
(In case you missed it, that was sarcasm.)

It'd be hard to miss that sarcasm, it was kinda like being whacked in the head with a board labelled "sarcasm"
. My "suggestions" in the original post weren't really intended to be exact replicas of what I actually want done. If I was president of the US, it's not what I'd want to have done. The post was more intended to draw attention to alternatives, and stimulate conversation on those possibilities and the pros and cons of said policies. What I stated was a possibility, albeit an extreme one. It's not how I actually think we should deal with the so-called "terrorist threat".
