Arab States begin to worry about Kidnapping Mojo |
2006-07-03 |
By Zvi Bar'el, Haaretz Correspondent The fear that last week's kidnapping of Corporal Gilad Shalit could become a model adopted by terrorist organizations in Arab states has caused others of these countries to become involved over the weekend in the effort to arrange Shalit's return. Senior Saudi officials, for instance, spoke with Syrian and Lebanese leaders to determine their ability to influence the kidnappers and/or to moderate the urgings for them to stand fast that are emanating from Hezbollah and other organizations. In other words, the Arab Leadership is caught between their own anti-Israel propaganda and the knowledge that local Islamists will try to kidnap them if the local Islamists see the Hamas kidnapping as being a success - poor babies. |

#4 Terrorism and Jihad are Frankenstein monsters that always turn on those that foment it. But they never learn. The ideology of Jihad is uncompromising and demands escalation and cultivating and enforcing greater hatred so that no one may stand up to and speak moderation or logic. No one can say "hey wait a minute...is this such a good idea...". No one, that is, who is not armed to the teeth and ready to fight to the death. |

#2 Very telling that their worry and opposition comes from being afraid they might be kidnapped instead of being against the sale of human beings. Comparison of cultures: wheat vs. chaff. |
