50% unemployment surely represents a humanitarian crisis in any society? Israel has always assumed that collective punishment leads to capitulation - 60 years on you would have thought they would have realised the opposite happens.

Time to find another solution, but the military like to pursue the killing regime. After all, they might not have a job if we had peace.
