This is my proposal for Sharon and Abbas and all those who are making sincere efforts at peace negotiations in Israel.
If you can't beat'em, join'em. No matter how much sincere effort is made by Jews and Moslems in Israel to try to work out through modern negotiations what should have been worked out in 1948 when the Arab nations decided rather to simply declare war on the state of Israel, the Hamas suicide bombers continue to insist on trying to derail the whole process by jiffy-popping themselves next to innocent bystander civilians. Sharon expresses anger and Abbas expresses sorrow. Abbas should, if he were in a more secure position, be expressing anger himself, at these people that are supposedly "his" people for whom he is making such efforts to secure a lasting peaceful solution, and who in return are just making his job as close to impossible as they can and blowing themselves up in the process. Must make him wonder why he is even bothering, trying to secure a peaceful future for a bunch of clowns who so willingly stomp out any degree of personal future for themselves by committing suicide at every chance. Abbas's position within the Palestinian hierarchy is fragile enough as it is, and he's hardly got the clout yet to make statements much bolder than expressions of sorrow. Arafat, of course (Abbas's general opponent), should be expressing this anger to stop the Hamas roaches. But he has shrugged this off, disclaiming personal responsibility for their acts. While it is true that Arafat cannot be held responsible for the actions of each and every individual, he could at least express some outrage at those who continue to derail the peace process. But Arafat has never been one to be fervently in favor of peace. He has however been a fervent supporter of violent insurgence. No matter, Arafat is penned up in his Roach Hotel compound. He checks in, but he can't check out. I'm sure he could check out, if he would change his stand on violence. Arafat has to do more than renounce violence, he must denounce it. Until he does, he's still a beacon for these suicide bombers.
No amount of appeals for cessation of violence and efforts at sincere progress at negotiations makes a dent to stop the suicide bombers. The more the peace process is attempted, in fact, the more they insist on playing the puffball game. Meanwhile, even Abbas is trying to insist on easing of Israeli checkpoints. Ridiculous! Suicide bombers step up their insane game, and Israel is supposed to relax its checkpoints where they might at least attempt to filter such people from entering Jewish areas??
Well, here is my proposal. Sort of a reverse-psychology approach. They don't want to stop blowing themselves up? Fine. Don't stop. Let them continue. Let's make it easier for those who have no respect for
A. negotiations for peace, B. innocent civilians trying to live their lives, and C. their own worthless lives, to blow themselves as simply, as frequently, and as expediently as possible. Let the peace process begin with a joint agreement to construct a huge Mosque, specifically to attract Hamas and other suicide bombers. This mosque should be built to be sturdy enough to contain explosions, like however they create explosives lab areas. Call it The Mosque Of The Blessed Martyrs (with gigantic letters in Arabic of course). It could have a huge statue of Arafat right on the dome. Inside, there could be other explosives-resistant statues of Moses, Einstein, Marx, other famous Jews, as well as a rabbi and a young Jewish family, and a full-scale public bus full of (statue) passengers. The destination listed on the front of the bus could be Islamic Heaven. These decoys should attract all the frothing fanatical jihad martyrs into this roach hotel. Let them check themselves in and never check out. There could even be a photographic studio set up there (behind bomb-proof glass) so that eager martyrs could have themselves videotaped blowing themselves up in front of these statues and have the video sent back to their families and peer groups as their prideful souvenir of their heroic last act, designed to encourage others to follow their shining path to glory.
That's basically my idea. A roach hotel for suicide bombers. Heck, the "souvenir" shop there could even provide explosives for those too poor or inept to bring their own, or in case of malfunction of their own home-made ones. A giant bug-light to attract all these wannabe heroes. And of course, plenty of promotion about how doing yourself up in this spontaneous combustion hotel will secure everlasting glory for you and your kin in the afterlife.
And why not, sure, build this dome in the form of a giant Jiffy-Pop container.
"Jihad-Pop, Jihad-Pop, the martyr treat. As much fun to make as it is to derail the entire peace process".
