I really wonder how come the Israeli politics cannot comprehend, even after 50 years, that they can`t achieve peace by force? So many examples in your own history and you cannot learn?
Sadly, after such actions, in time, Israel and Israelis will be even less secure.

Answer to question above could be that the Israeli goverment is usualy filled with ex-military (desensitized soldiers).
Or that a long-lasting Peace is not the Goal at all.
