Op-ed: The generation of terrorists from the 90s lived under the illusion that Allah was waiting for them in paradise with 72 virgins. Today's terrorists are disillusioned and aimless.

Op-ed: During the "real" intifadas terrorists only sacrificed themselves if they could kill at least several Israelis. Currently, they settle for several lightly-wounded Israelis; well I've seen several "lightly" wounded people in my time - some forever carry a long and pale scar. Not so "light".
