The tragedy of death off the Israeli coast cannot be overlooked. Knowing the professionalism and discipline of IDF personnel, I highly doubt this was anything but a response to blatant provocation by those whose careers have been dedicated to provoking Israel. It is disappointing that our Turkish allies were duped into supporting such stunts by professional activists. True, as a Holocaust survivor put it, Gaza has become eerily similar to concentration camps of the Nazi era; but such imoverishment has been brought about by Gaza's new Hamas rulers.
There is a lesson to learn and a way forward: uninstall the Hamas regime in Gaza and bring Gaza back from the brink. If this means targeting the intellectual and political denizens of Hamas in Damascus or Beirut, so be it. The Hamas leadership and its patrons understand only one language, that of targeted violence. Let us talk to them in that language.
