Pressure Hamas Terrorists, Not Israel
(New York Daily News) Editorial - As Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu travels to Egypt to discuss resumption of peace talks with what passes for Palestinian leadership, the Obama administration steps up pressure on Israel to make concessions. Rocket and mortar attacks on Israel are back with a vengeance. According to Netanyahu, more than 20 rockets and mortar shells were launched from Gaza in the last week. There are two sides in this conflict. One wants to live in peace with its neighbors; the other wants its neighbor to go to hell. Unless and until we put more pressure on the terrorists than on the democratically elected leaders of Israel, the road to peace will run smack into a brick wall.
