Whoever wants Israel to “get tougher” and “destroy” Hamas or Hezbollah is living in a bubble of delusion. When you are generally perceived as a perpetrator of war and aggression and suppression, as Israel is in Gaza, the West Bank, and Lebanon, you are cultivating radical militants by the thousands. You will not destroy these groups, you will propagate them many times over. Such groups are “destroyed” by one method only: Sincere dialogue in pursuit of peace. And prosperity. But will the Israeli people ever wake from their delusional trance?
