A Cycle of Modest Proposals

Hamas says it may take part in a truce with Israel, halting terrorist attacks if Israel will halt targeted killings of the murderers.

But how would this work? Hasn't the "Cycle of Violence" concluded, for now, with Israel in the lead? Does Israel now have to give Hamas a freebie? "OK, you punch, no punch backs?" I didn't think so when this idea occurred to me this morning, but now a new idea has come to me. Suppose, just suppose, Israel were to grant Hamas the right to send one more suicide bomber into its territory? But wait, I'm not talking on the sly - no, escort him in, right in the open. Give him a nice meal, a few drinks, and escort him into the middle of a huge crowd of Israelis, say in a sports arena, and let him blow his damn self sky-high. I bet they could even sell some tickets - for charitable purposes only, of course. Just make sure he doesn't hurt anybody, and we all get to see the desperate lengths that Israel has driven him to, and we move on.

Win/win!

Brilliant!

Except, no dead Jews. That might upset the poor oppressed Hamas fans.
