This person thinks everything is so easy. Israelis have waited for years & endured through thousands of missiles before going in to Gaza, this person talks about collective punishment but the Pali involve everyone in their war against Israel even before a child can walk they are dressed with dynamite belts & yet Israel is supposed to give them equal rights & forgo their security?? The only real solution in this conflict is for Palestini to accept Israel as their home & join the many Arab-Israeli living in Israel in peace.

Hopefully Norman will survive anything the 'Chosen State' can throw at him. He embodies some truly admirable qualities. . .qualities sadly lost to so many of his critics, who continue to persist in applying the misery of their past to the Palestinians present.
