Dealing with Hezbollah

Rondi Adamson has a great piece in today's Toronto Star on why negotiating with terrorist groups like Hezbollah is a bad idea.

Writes Adamson:

"Its (Hezbollah's) stated desire is the eradication of the state of Israel, with a promise that Jewish and Western targets be attacked the world over.
So would we, say, negotiate a reasonable number of attacks per year?
Or, would we talk about allowing Hezbollah to eradicate a certain percentage of Israelis? They are also fans of Islamic law. Would we negotiate an acceptable number of rights women could give up? "


Exactly.

This is something certain members of the Liberal and NDP caucus should consider.
