And there is no indication Tuesday was a Palestinian deal. There is some extent of Islamic chauvinism on the part of some Muslims and some governments that would spawn some terrorism. Nobody can be sure how much. I would venture the unprofessional opinion that Palestine does not explain the Taliban, the Iranian revolution, the Iran/Iraq war, Iraq's invasion of Kuwait, the assassination of Sadat, the Sudanese civil war, and lots of other bad shit in the ME.
Which is one reason the peace position will ring hollow to most people.

Hang on here. Palestinians that blow themselves up, as I understand it, are a product of the breakdown of the Oslo Accords, refusal to resolve the issues underlying the intifadha, the military support of Israeli settlements,....no? Take away these factors and where is the base of support for Palestinians blowing up themselves?
Yeah, I'm pretty sure killing the brains behind the WTC/Pent operation would have stopped that particular action. Others would have followed that wouldhave been equally or even more hideous...big deal...
