The enemy isn't a civilian, just because she isn't wearing a uniform. And you're right. Fighting an enemy like that has to be done face-to-face, so you can shoot the ones with guns an rockets and give the iPod or evacuate the ones who don't have guns and rockets.

I also don't think that handing out cheeseburgers or Shakira DVDs is the answer either.

The answer lies more in setting up kibbutzes in the Palestinian territories, digging wells, and keeping the warlords from appropriating the product. It also involves taking the IDF troops off the checkpoints, so that brother can visit brother.

It involves setting up courts to deal with discrimination on both sides, and building schools that teach people trades and give them opportunities. Young men who don't have jobs or schools to go to have nothing to do but hang out, get bitter, and serve as fodder for the Hamas recruiters.

If you're going to build a nation, you have to build as well as police. And if we aren't ready to spend the money to buy real peace, and live with the body counts until we get it, then we need to back the fuck off and get out of the Middle East entirely.
