(Gatestone Institute) Daniel Greenfield - The appeasement lobby only has one big idea when it comes to Islamic terrorists: Give them land. When the terrorists attack anyway, explain that it's because they didn't get enough land last time. Give them more land. When the terrorists attack anyway, explain that it's because they didn't get enough land last time. Israel has been living through this particular "peace process" nightmare for a generation. Now, faced with growing Hizbullah attacks, "American officials recently proposed, in a virtual meeting with their Israeli counterparts, a land swap between Lebanon and Israel as part of a comprehensive agreement to end the border conflicts and resolve the land dispute between the two countries," the Kuwaiti newspaper Al-Jarida reported. Amos Hochstein, President Biden's envoy, insisted on Israel turning over gas fields to Hizbullah back in 2022. That was supposed to avert further conflict. We know how that worked out. But appeasing Islamic terrorists doesn't work. Defeating them does. Hizbullah will claim any territory it gets and attack anyway because that is what Islamic terrorists do. It's going to attack when Tehran tells it to. As an Islamic terror group, attacking non-Muslims and dominating them is a fundamental religious obligation. So making deals with Hizbullah won't work. Just like making deals with Hamas doesn't work.
