While I don't necessarily have much esteem for DK, I do share some of her feeling about people who repeatedly point out that Arab terrorists "learned their tactics" from Sharon, Moshe Dayan, etc.

First, I think it's a crock, as it falsely suggests that the Israelis who fought the Brits invented the use of terror tactics against an occupying force. Of course they didn't.

Second, while the tactics may be similar in some respects, they are hardly the same as far as I know -- I don't recall any British passenger liners going down.

Third, so what? "They did it to someone else, so we can do it to them?"

never thought I'd say this but sidd has my proxy.
