A Hard-Liner Suggests Solution For Violence In Greater Israel MIKE ROSENBAUM What should you be looking for in a sports camp for your child? 57 ENTERTAINMENT Awash In Romance ebron — Frustration is the only word to describe the feeling one gets as he tries to be a patriotic Jew in the Jewish State. We are told that Arabs, who wish to create a Palestinian State in place of our Jewish one, are to be treated as equal citizens. When they take to the streets and throw rocks and bombs at us, our soldiers are given orders not to shoot. Jews who try to defend themselves are treated as criminals. When Jewish soldiers and civilians are murdered in Gaza, our foreign minister, Mr. Peres, sug- gests that our leaving Gaza might solve the problem, stupidly not realizing that he has just signed the death warrant for future victims of our "peaceful Arab demonstrators" who would have us leave all of our contry. Although I agree with a recent state- ment made by Assistant Secretary of State Richard Murphy to the effect that the Israeli Army is .. not conducting itself in a manner consistant with that of other Western countries, we disagree on what we mean by it. Murphy sees Israeli soldiers in- discriminately shooting Arab civilians, which is the picture presented to the world. Our boys are sent into violent riot situations and are told not to shoot. Naturally rioters are going to increase their violence until it is checked. Thus, when backs are against the walls and hails of rocks, iron poles and molotov cocktails are upon them, shooting in the air or at legs is no longer an option. And when a soldier shoots to save his life under the most dangerous situations possible, the world calls for "restraint." As always, the world is ready to mourn for the Jew, but when the Jew takes the initiative to pro- tect his very life, he is always condemned. Well, thank you, I'll opt for the condemnation. As we watch with apprehension the in- crease of violence in the territories, op- timistic experts dismiss it as a passing wave of extremism. Any fool can see that Arab extremism is constantly rewarded, and thus encouraged. Is it any wonder that it increases? The "extremist" Arab murderer has little to fear and so much to gain by committing acts of terror against Jews. And he has unified Arab na- tionalistic goals to back him up. Children are raised as murderous thugs in the name of liberation. If all the Indians in India would join with the Indians in America to give the U.S. back to its legitimate owners, they would have a far better case than the fraudulent sons of Arab peasants who claim rights of a people who never existed! The disenfranchised Arabs who happen to have made their homes in Israel were never a national entity. They were individuals from surrounding Arab nations who chose to live in Israel. For this they have a legitimate right to form yet another Arab country and disposess the only Jewish State? Israel is guilty of having underestimated the will of our enemies to destroy us. We built our own Trojan horse and now wonder how our enemies got in- side the walls. It was we who closed our eyes to our 'enemies as we made them citizens in the hope that they would love us. Today we can no longer keep our heads in the sand because our backsides are be- ing pelted with rocks. Negotiation is not the answer, because there is nothing to negotiate.
