I Blame Sharon

Israel withdrew from Gaza in a monumental blunder - a reward for terror. It showed that terrorism works, Israel will bend if hit enough.

For that I blame Sharon.

Hamas was elected, in my view, because of their precieved success in attacking Israel enough times that Israel withdrew from Gaza, not because they pick up the trash on time, as some will have you believe.

For that I blame Sharon.

Gilad Shalit was kidnapped because terrorists have seen that Israel had negotiated in the past for live people and bodies of dead soldiers. How did Israel not learn from it's earlier mistake in 1985? Regardless, prisoners were released in trade in 2004. Guess who was in charge then?

For that I blame Sharon.

Hezbolla has seen that Hamas is getting all the credit. Nasralla felt left out, so he attacked. But why was Hamas getting all the credit? Oh, because they rule Gaza and attack Israel daily from it.

For that I blame Sharon.
