Of course we heard this for years. It was the reason Israel couldn’t fight Fatah based terror from 1993 to 2003. But of course, Operation Defensive Shield changed that. Israel fought Fatah and Fatah lost. Now Israel’s being lecture: Don’t fight Hamas, you’ll only make them stronger. In other words, Israel’s being advised to “lie back and enjoy” the Hamas terror. And of course the unilateral surrender is wrapped in a cloak of false concern that if Israel fights back it will only make ...
