[IMC-Editorial] Letter: Palestinians' Reaction to Road Map

[ARI Media]

Dear Editor:

How did Palestinian terrorists react to the recent release of the "road
map" to peace? With dozens of terrorist attacks against Israel,
including five suicide bombings.

The terrorists' reaction demonstrates once again that they--and their
supporters--have no desire for peace with Israel. Their attacks also
demonstrate the futility of trying to end terrorism through
negotiations. Terrorists--and the regimes that nurture them--can't be
dealt with through reason and appeals to their self-interest. They have
* no * self-interest. Their purpose is not to gain any values but to
destroy the lives and values of others.

The Israelis, as the victims of terrorism, have the * moral
responsibility * to hunt down the terrorists * wherever they may be *,
and do * whatever it takes * to capture or kill them.

This is exactly the principle the United States must follow in its own
war against Islamic terrorism. The alternative is another September 11.

Sincerely,
