When in world history has that ever worked? You can't defeat terrorists with more violence; that just begets even more terrorism. Think of all the young Palestinian kids who just saw their homes destroyed and/or had family members killed by the IDF over the past few weeks -- how many of them will now become future terrorists (or self-described resistance fighters from their POV) because of this?
