I heard yesterday that Hammas has offered Israel a deal to halt the fighting if they switch the borders back to where they were prior to 1967. Thoughts? I love you.

I don't know enough about it to make an intelligent judgment.Didnt Israel take that region in response to military action against them?If they could give it back and guarantee their safety I almost think they should do it.I do know that until they work out who gets Jerusalem or some type of sharing agreement that arabs accept they are always going to be fighting.

There was an interesting question a few weeks ago regarding if Israel got into a war with Iran would America be obligated to respond with force against Iran?I said no because of Israels arsenal of nukes and superior army.Some think Israel would be eventually out numbered and overrun.I'm almost on the side of hey we didnt decide to drop a country in the middle of the holiest part of the world next to an opposing religion.

I think in 1967 is when Israel had the 6 day war or whatever it was called. Typical of everything in the Middle East, both sides claim the other started it. The actual war started when Egypt put a bunch of troops on the border. Israel didn't fuck around and attacked Egypt. Then Syria and Jordan jumped in and the war was on. The other arab countries (saudia, iraq, etc) supplied troops and weapons to the arabs.

6 days later Israel had taken the West Bank, the Sinai peninsula, and the Gaza Strip. 6 fucking days, lol. I love you.

That description pretty well sums it up. Egypt kicked the UN out of their country an put a huge force in place on the border. Israel launched an attak with they claimed was pre-emptive. Jordan, Syria, Kuwait, Iraq and other similar minded Arab nations joined in Egypts defense and supplied intelligence and arms.
Peace in the middle east will never be long term IMO.
