Cool Hand Abu-Lukeby Steven Plaut
While the whole country, except for the Olmert government, is concerned about the daily rocket attacks on Sderot, I think we have all been overlooking the obvious solution. The way to fix things occurred to me while watching a rerun of that Paul Newman film classic " Cool Hand Luke." After making "Exodus," Newman went on to assist the Jewish people when he made "Cool Hand Luke," about prisoners in chain gangs. They are chained to one another by the ankle, and do terrible manual labor, like building roads and moving earth by hand. Now Sderot has become the Israeli version of Guernica, thanks to the Kadima unilateral capitulation, expulsion, and removal of Israeli control over the Gaza Strip. But the Olmert people do not care a fig because they do not have any friends or relatives who live there. After all, Sderot is nothing but a backward town of low-income blue-collar workers from Morocco, not the sorts with whom the Kadima people fraternize and sip brandy. We might dub this "Failure to Communicate," for those who have seen the movie. And even Amir Peretz, who was once mayor there, lost interest in Sderot when its people voted against him. 
Failure to Communicate
 So here is my idea. Let's take all those jailed "Palestinian" terrorists and security prisoners, those Olmert considers having "blood on their paws" and those he does not, and create chain gangs like those in Cool Hand Luke, employing them around Sderot. Then whenever a Qassam is fired at Sderot, the townies can seek shelter and the chain gangs can stay out on the streets and go on working. We will see how long it takes for the Hamas to resolve Israel's dilemma of what to do with all those jailed terrorists! And if that does not work, we can also employ some chain gangs of leftist post-Zionist professors around Sderot! Then Israel can solve the problems in Gaza once and for all by setting up large pumping stations to pump sea water into Gaza. Once the entire Gaza Strip is under two meters of sea water, I bet the Qassam firings will end! And when the bleeding hearts complain, Israel can just blame the flooding on global warming!!

Dear IDF - Advice on dealing with the "Anarchist" Thugsby Steven Plaut
Literary Advice from Eugene O'Neill on How to Deal with the "Anarchist" Hooligans (who vandalize Israel's security fence and attack soldiers and police): Joe (the black character): 'He says, "Socialist and Anarchist, we ought to shoot dem dead. Dey's all no-good sons of bitches." I says, "Hold on, you talk 's if Anarchists and Socialists was de same." "Dey is," he says. "Dey's both no-good bastards." "No, dey ain't," I says. "I'll explain the difference. De Anarchist he never works. He drinks but he never buys, and if he do ever get a nickel, he blows in on bombs, and he wouldn't give you nothin'. So go ahead and shoot him. But de Socialist, sometimes, he's got a job, and if he gets ten bucks, he's bound by his religion to split fifty-fifty wid you. You say – how about my cut, Comrade? And you gets de five. So you don't shoot no Socialists while I'm around. Dat is, not if dey got anything. Of course, if dey's broke, den dey's no-good bastards, too."' --- The Iceman Cometh, Act I, Eugene O'Neill

Ban use of Term "Israeli Apartheid" by Israeli Profsby Steven Plaut
McMaster University is light years ahead of Israeli campuses when it comes to distinguishing between freedom of speech and vile bigoted hate! 
Located in Hamilton, Canada, the university has decided to put a stop to the metasticizing of the "Israeli Apartheid Weeks," organized by anti-Semites and pro-terrorists, onto its campus. Canadian campuses have had as many anti-Semitic Nuremberg Rallies, supposedly against Israeli "apartheid," as US campuses. First, McMaster Provost office, which is second in authority only to that of the President's office, banned all campus use of the term "Israeli Apartheid" as hate speech. Then it was backed in this by the McMaster Human Rights & Equity Services (HRES). Finally the McMaster Student Union expressed support and approval for the ban. Has civilized behavior at last infiltrated North American college campuses? Naturally, the local axis of evil uniting Islamofascists and far Leftists was upset at this "suppression of freedom of speech." The same people who would have you expelled from school if you say "Negro" or "chick" or express a negative opinion of homosexual relations want "Israeli Apartheid" to be a subject of academic debate. And after that perhaps more debate about Jews drinking gentile blood on Passover and being cheapskates. Now one place where anti-Semitic and anti-Israel hate speech is ALWAYS protected is on Israeli campuses. Far Leftist anti-Israel professors express it all the time, often inside their classrooms! Interestingly, no student groups or professors at McMaster want all the Canadians thrown into the sea or bombs placed inside Toronto school buses because they are occupying Indian lands in Canada. In some departments at Israeli universities one cannot find any professors who OPPOSE Arab terrorism against Jews! So lets round up a few hundred tenured traitors on Israeli campuses and ship them off to Hamilton, where they can learn some civilized behavior, manners and decency!!
