There has seldom been peace in human history without the stimulus of the sword.
-- Bill Heuisler

There are only military solutions when an enemy wants to destroy you. Peace comes after you have thoroughly defeated them. Israel should, as should the U.S., ignore the moral and intellectually repugnant U.N. and Western European elites and destroy the Islamic fascists around the world. That will safeguard the U.S. and defeating the corrupt Islamic regimes will offer the only hope for a peaceful Middle East.
-- Michael Brody

If law and order had been imposed on Palestine, it would be a prosperous part of Israel, living in peace with her neighbors. As long as you have lawlessness and disorder, you have a fertile ground for the hatred and bizarre definitions of peace that result in Arafat getting a peace prize!

Wise up. Simplistic, left-wing pacifist solutions sound good, but they just don't work.

NEW VOICES
Re: George Neumayr's Savage Times:

While Dick Riordan's views are perhaps not distinguishable from those of the editorial board of the Los Angeles Times, he still has what it takes to create an interesting alternative to the dominant daily: bags of money and a willingness to bring in writers and editors like Matt Welch, Ken Layne, and Tim Blair. Those voices will define the paper, and they have been consistently sharp in criticizing the Times at mattwelch.com, kenlayne.com, and laexaminer.com. Neumayr should check them out.

THE ART OF DIPLOMACY
Re: Lawrence Henry's The Bush-Powell Conundrum:

Thank you. It's reassuring to learn I'm not the only one that considers the post of Sec. of State to be something more than that of a shouting bully.
-- Charles Conrardy
