No, I didn't. I don't think killing a million or more Palestinians will bring about any sort of peace. Furthermore, I think anyone who honestly thinks that is deluded, and ignorant of cultural influences which would use those massive casualties as fodder to raise more, and not less, terrorists. For all your claimed expertise in Middle Eastern affairs, you seem surprisingly uninformed of the cultural values of feud and revenge, and how those might react to your proposed carpet-bombing

Now, clearly I made no reference to intelligence, and I made no reference to ethnicity.
I'll let the readers in this thread judge the earnestness of each our points. I know that for myself I'll never read anything you say with any credibility, because you're dishonest.
