Condi Goin to the War Zone

I WOULDN'T EXPECT MUCH

President Bush is sending Secretary of State Condi Rice to Israel this weekend. The world seems to be on Bush's butt to do something about the ever escalating situation over there, but so far he has done the right thing and simply stayed out of it. Condi is going over there for PR, and not to get anything done. Why you ask? We have seen over the past 30 years how worthless diplomacy is in that part of the world. Cease-fire after cease-fire has been attempted, and numerous UN resolutions have been passed, but nothing has been accomplished. When will the world realize that negotiating with terrorists simply doesnt work. Madeline Albright to this day is clueless on how to confront the evil of terror. People like her would rather run their mouths than flex their muscle.

The Israeli's on the other hand understand how worthless another arbitrary peace offering would be. They are the ones gettin kidnapped. They are the ones getting blown up by suicide bombers. They are the ones constantly under the threat of rocket attacks from an invisible enemy, whom is being supplied and financed by two enemies of peace whom thus far havent been held accountable by anyone. The rest of the world could learn alot of lessons from Israel. Obviously their geography plays a huge role in their level of aggresivness. But this time, I think they realize that just pushing back Hezbollah wont solve the problem, rather it will only delay they next round of attacks which will definetaly come.

Israel wants peace. Terrorists dont. Until people like Kofi Annan are willing to understand that fact, nothing will be accomplished. Besides the United States, England, and Israel, the world is more than willing to appease terrorists. We see it on a daily basis. If the free world would come together and be as aggresive against terror as Israel is, we wouldnt have this problem. Their would be no nuclear standoff with Iran, or North Korea. Economic interests have become more important than national and global security to more nations. Its a shame, because the problem of terrorism isnt a hard one to solve, yet most are unwilling solve it. Ask yourselves why.
