Sometimes, You Need to Give War a Chance
(Washington Times) Clifford D. May - Americans didn't make peace with the Nazis. We made peace with those we permitted to hold power in Germany after we decisively defeated the Nazis. Today, there is no conceivable way that Israel can make peace with Hamas, a Tehran-backed terrorist organization committed to jihad, the annihilation of Israel, and the genocide of Israelis. Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, the supreme leader of the Islamic Republic of Iran, like his friends in Hamas, has no interest in making peace with those he regards, for theological reasons, as his enemies. It is unrealistic to believe that the rulers of Iran will make peace with America. What is realistic is for Americans to limit the ability of these unsavory enemies to successfully wage war against us and other free nations.
