Israel and Suicide Killers

For some time I have been saying that the best way to get rid of terrorists is to give Israel a whole bunch of money and a whole bunch of weapons.

Here is an article pointing out why this is true.

Israeli's seem to have a core competence in stopping terrorism. We should think of the IDF as the Home Depot of anti-terrorism. They've seen it all, done it all, and know it all.

The Israelis understand the importance of defense, but they also know the importance of offense:

"An organization with 25 percent of its leadership destroyed cannot function properly and launch attacks," he said. "If I had to choose between defense or attack, it is far more cost effective to go on the attack."

So here is a solution:

1. Good spies
2. Good technology
3. Targeted Assassinations
