The Palestinians, the people who have declared back in 1947 that they want to wipe out the state of Israel and kill everyone in it, are once again getting their ass kicked by the Israelis.

Maybe the Palestinians should stand up and say, "Guess what? We recognize the right of the state of Israel to exist and we want a peaceful coexistence with them!"

I'm betting that just might get the Israelis to back off.
