obviously the palestinian terrorists aren't helping anyone.. they commit these acts simply to satisfy their hate and affiction with death.
What a ridiculous statement. From their perspective, given their culture and education, they are simply defending themselves, the only way they know how. They have no other way to oppose Israeli tanks, helicopters, planes, missiles, and heavily armed troops.

We have people in this country that espouse opposition, violent if necessary, to any UN mandated programs that would supersede American authority. How would that be any different? If the UN gave Georgia to native American tribes for a homeland, would that be gracefully and peacefully accepted by the people living in that state?

There may indeed be no solution to this problem, but we certainly won't find one by continuing to misrepresent the motivations of the people involved in it.
