With Every Murder, Palestinians Destroy Their Future
(National Review) David Harsanyi - There have been 11 terrorist murders in Israel over the past week. All of the attacks happened well inside the '67 boundaries. This isn't about "occupied territories." This isn't some ginned-up Fatah claim regarding the Temple Mount. It's old-fashioned terror meant to scare Jews out of the Middle East. Even as Sunni Arab nations make peace, open trade, and enter security arrangements with Israel, Palestinians refuse to lift themselves from the destitution of their own creation. No rational people would hand a new country - or bestow a "right to return" - to those who might randomly murder them or launch missiles at their schools. Yet, Palestinians continue, for more than a century now, to engage in this self-destructive strategy.
