I'm not saying that I want to see war, I'm just saying that the nation of Israel has a right to exist and it's people have a right to defend themselves. How do we stop the circle of violence as long as Syria and Iran feed it? If there is a peaceful way, please find it! Otherwise, which will ultimately save more lives...allowing the status quo to continue with Israel and the terrorists mounting a constant body count, or going to the root of the problem and confronting Iran and Syria? If there is no other way then lets end it now! Maybe if the world united and told these two terrorist states, "stop now or we will stop you!" they would listen without bloodshed...that is where folks efforts should be spent rather than blaming Israel for defending itself imo!

I can only give you an answer that my Dad, a decorated WWII officer and "wise man" said to me. His words:
"Wars aren't settled on battlefields. That's where people go to die for their beliefs. They are settled when the ones that put them there sit down at a table."
My thought..."Talk first, listen twice."
