Instead of replying with emotionally charged responses, full of personal attacks, I would appreciate if you actually come up with alternative ideas of disarming H<FONT class="">isballah, i.e. curing the deadly cancer, rather than giving it a Tylenol by saying STOP THE WAR!! I want to know what is next?? spend the next 20 years negotiating with them while they build up their capabilities again?</FONT><BR><BR><BR><BR><BR></P></P>
