A New Day in Israel?



Shin Bet: 2009 was first year in decade without suicide attacks


What a terribly sad reality.

On the other hand, it is better than not.

The question is, now that the Palestinians are no longer resorting to these terror tactics, will it lead to a resumption of peace talks?

For many years I have heard Israelis and others beg the Palestinians to stop using suicide bombers. They pleaded and demanded and they swore that if the Palestinians were not resorting to such tactics the Israelis would be able to make great concessions for peace.

So let's see what happens.

On the other hand, it makes no difference if they tried to use suicide bombers and were simply unsuccessful. The article does not reveal whether or not suicide bombings were attempted and thwarted.
