► Long-term peace was within reach before Israeli attack. Published: 16 November, 2012 - Edited: 17 November, 2012
Israel's military operation into the Gaza Strip on Wednesday (11/14) was held 69 days before a general election next January 22, 2013. Mobilization of reservists into Gaza are prepared to support the pillar of cloud operations. A coincidence? Hmmm ... The fact is not coincidental. Five of seven Israeli military operations to the Palestinians were held before the election.
On 11 April 1996, Shimon Peres (who at that time was prime minister) launched Operation Grapes of Wrath to subjugate Hezbollah in Lebanon. A month later, or precisely on May 22, 1996 the people of Israel chose Benjamin Netanyahu as prime minister.
Furthermore, Operation Defensive Shield specified on June 22, 2002 was held to hitting the Second Intifada. Seven months after the operation, the people of Israel chose Ariel Sharon as prime minister and hoist Likud as the ruling party in the Knesset.
In February 2006, the Israeli military launched Operation Lightning. A month later, the Kadima party won the election and Ehud Olmert became Prime Minister.
Finally, Operation Cast Lead took place on December 27, 2008 by attacking Gaza massively. Less than a month after the operation was over, on February 19, 2009 Kadima's selected to be the largest party in the Knesset with 28 seats. But the right bloc led by Likud party came to power at a time ordained Netanyahu as prime minister for a second time.

(In joke I told my partner, "Dahling, their reign as the vampire royal, eheehehe...bloodthirsty at certain times. No scent of love and peaceful breeze in the seat of their leader."
He didn't respond to my joke but just stared at me with a stupid expression. Then for a moment I saw there's a man and a woman looked at each other as if they had just discovered a new fact. I dunno, maybe because they basically have the same understanding of the different ideas, then --- instinctively --- they felt that the practical things they could do was just laughing. The niceties that they still had to do, no matter how they felt very close to someone. Well, my partner and me. We have many colors for about Israel. But its dominant color in my eye is only Red. Angry. Blood. Aih aih... do not tell me they were love and hungry.)
