Kevin,

You’ve back-peddled from the “most obvious goal” to “one of the things”

Make your mind up.

Stephen,

Ahem. The "most obvious goal" is indeed "one of the things." It's not necessarily the same thing as the "most important goal" which is not necessarily the same as the "most desired outcome" which is not necessarily the same as a number of other things.

Israel, as with any country, has goals. The "most obvious" one was one I could put my finger on immediately and thought I wouldn't get much argument about. Except, as it turns out, from you.

Do you equate "obvious" with "important" or "desired" or something?
