THANK YOU FOR PLAYING

Here's a fun little exercise: Read Robert Pape's NY Times op-ed about the Hezbollah movement, and the phenomenon of suicide terrorism and its roots in resistance to foreign occupation (a subject on which Pape has written one of the definitive works.)

Then read Alan Dershowitz in today's NY Daily News, insisting that foreign occupation does not cause terrorism.

Then raise your hand if you can tell who's full of crap.
