Roachboy, one of the principles that Israel was founded on is: "Never again". Never again will they be herded into extermination camps without a fight.
Thus, when Israel's neighbors keep repeating their wish to "drive Israel into the sea", Israel has no other option than fight them.
Idealism is great, but in this case, reality gets in the way. Without moderation in the Arab world, Israel will never feel secure. If Israel doesn't feel secure, they're not going to stop their current policies, and you can hardly blame them. I feel very sorry that the Palestinians are cought in the middle, but *they* aren't exactly helping the situation with their Intifada.
