Appeasement Doesn't Work

Running away from terrorists never works. Barak ordered the army to run away from Lebanon, and now we have Hizbullah with rockets capable of hitting Tel-Aviv. right on our northern border.

Sharon ordered the army to leave Gaza, and uproot ten thousand Jews from their homes, and not only do we have Kassamim falling in Sderot and Ashkelon, but the army had to go back into Gaza with ground troops, a little over nine months after the disengagement.

Further uprooting of Jews from their homes will be just more of the same mistake. It will hurt many people (possibly me), it will cause more of a rift in the army than there already is (the soldiers who followed orders thinking that maybe things would work out for the best see now that it didn't), and it WON'T STOP THE TERROR. The only reason why there are fewer attacks now is because of the special forces that go into Schem (Nablus), Jenin, etc. to find the terrorists where they live and capture or kill them before they can carry out their plans.

Can we please learn from our mistakes?
