You may think I an "just" a Conservative Nutjob who is blowing sh!t out of my ass. You are entitled to your opinion. You are wrong, but you're still entitled to it.
I have played wargames for the past 37 years. I started with Avalon Hill's Tobruk, and moved on from there. I have played tactical and strategic level games, from squad-sized to multiple Divisions. Land, Naval and Space.
I have studied the masters. My library includes books from Sun Tzu, Sun Pin, Clausewitz, Jomini, B.H. Liddell Hart, Genghis Kahn and Miyamoto Musashi. I have refought Thermopylae, Hastings, Agincourt, Waterloo and Bunker Hill. I have won with both sides in Iron Bottom Sound, held off the Germans at Bastogne and many, many others.
I consistently kick my opponents around while I do it. I win a lot more than I lose and on those occasions I do lose, my opponent knows he was in a fight. I have dealt with not only actively fighting forces, I have dealt with the logistical train as well. Making sure the forces have the right equipment and supplies at the right time.
Now that I have displayed my qualifications, I want to say this: The one thing, the only thing that wins wars is the total defeat of the enemy, the object of the exercise is to beat your enemy down until they are unable to conduct offensive operations against you. You do this by destroying their equipment, their logistical tail and their will to fight.
No war has ever ended with both sides intact. One side has to be crushed before the other side can be considered the winner. A lot of you who think you know history will point to Korea and say, "See? There's a conflict that ended with a negotiated settlement!" BZZZT!! WRONG! A cease-fire agreement was signed on July 27th, 1953 at Panmunjom, which brought active fighting to an end. A state of war still exists over there and the conflict has transferred from the battlefield to the negotiation table. There are still "incidents" to this day.
So, looking to Israel and the rest of the Middle East. The Jewish people have been in that land for about 2,500-3,000 years. They pre-date the Arab peoples in that area. In 1948, the United Nations created the State of Israel. It is surrounded by enemies on all sides. The governments of Egypt, Syria, Jordan and Lebanon have all at one time or another, sworn to destroy Israel and wipe out the Jewish people. The day after Israel was created, it was attacked and again in 1967. Now, every time, every time Israeli military forces have moved, it has been in response to an active sustained attack, or the imminent threat of an attack.
Days of missiles launched into Israel, or multiple suicide bombers always precede (that means happen before) an Israeli offensive campaign. Let's put it into a more personal perspective. This is an analogy, which means it won't exactly translate, but it is close enough for illustrative purchases. You purchase a plot of land when nobody lives nearby. You build a house and commence to live there. You then have to move away. When you return to your home, squatters have moved in, as well as neighbors in the adjacent properties. It turns out the squatters are friends and family of the neighbors. You have the squatters kicked out of your house, and you start rebuilding your home.
The neighbors don't like this very much, so they all band together, swear that they will get rid of you one way or the other and come at you and your family. You fight them off, killing a few in the process. The squatters have now taken up residence (and continue to live) in tents on your various neighbors property. The squatters have no problem with using your lawn as a toilet, and being aggressive every chance they get. They bully your kids, poison your dog, throw rocks at your house that break your windows and so on.
When you call the Police, they do nothing to the squatters. The friends and family of the squatters refuse to build permanent housing for the squatters on their property and have no problem with getting the supplies the squatters need to harass you. When you try to throw the rocks back at the squatters, they hide behind their kids and call the Police of one of them gets hit. When you get really tired of the harassment and go into the neighbors property to put the beatdown on the more aggressive squatters, then the Police show up and take the side of the squatters, telling you to get back to your property and ignoring your broken windows, torn up fence and spray-painted graffiti on the side of your home.
What can you do? In this situation you have very few options. Moving somewhere else is not an option. All of your neighbors have promised to kick you out of your home given the chance. You have tried being nice, or at least conciliatory. It doesn't work, what they want is your home and land and nothing short of that is acceptable to them. You can't change their heart against you.
My first instinct is to pick a neighbor, shoot him, his wife, his kids, his dog and every squatter on the property. Then burn his house and everything else on the property to the ground as an example for the others. Fear is a great motivator, but it is only a stop-gap measure at best. Anybody who moves in afterwards will probably still be friends and family of those who were there before, and the new ones will probably join the pack and hate you as well.
The only way this conflict will end is if they change their own hearts and stop hating you. All you can do is be gracious when they do so and kill everyone that crosses your property line.
