Suicide bombings were the only things moderating the Israelis, just as the scare of the 1973 war also was a moderating factor that got them out of Sinai. That is a fact. Suicide bombings began after 45 years of Israeli atrocities and policies that Moshe Dayan himself likened to rape. It's a shame that Israelis couldn't see sense when there weren't any bombings but they couldn't. Now they see even less sense. When the Palestinians start increasingly demanding a One State Solution the usual suspects will broadcast for all to hear that the Palestinians want to drive every last Jew into the sea to drown and this will be accepted as gospel truth in the western media.
Tell me something, was the car 1968 car bomb attack in the Mahaneh Yehuda market place, which killed 12 Israelis and wounded 52 others, also "after 45 years" of Israeli atrocities? How about the Munich massacre in 1972, when members of the Israeli Olympic team were kidnapped and murdered by Palestinian terrorists? These are both examples of violence by Palestinians long before the first suicide bombings by Hamas. I suggest you get your history straight.
