But even now, do we bomb from the air, like America? Risk hitting hospitals and schools and embassies like America did in Bosnia and Afghanistan? No.

I can't believe that no one has picked up on how anti american this line is. While the majority of Americans support israel and europeans talk of Jewish scum this guy is talking about our boys' lack of bravery. He should tell that to the families of the american servicemen who have died in Afghanistan.

If the PA tries any suicide attacks against US targets I would have no qualms if we sent a few B-1 bombers over the West Bank or Gaza in response.

Just my opinion...
But I think this contrast is mentioned partly because it is factual...
and the Los Angeles Jewish community just can't yet say the actions in Bosnia
were at the behest of President William Jefferson Clinton.
They aren't dissing the US Military...just noting that their punitive mission went the
extra mile to avoid civilian casualties.

The Jewish community is having a hard time parting with the idea that the Democratic Party
is their best friend.
But a fair number of them are slowing, inexorably reaching this conclusion.
Otherwise, you'd not have heard about a fair number of Jews in the LA area
cancelling their subscriptions to The Los Angeles Times for perceived pro-Palestinian/anti-Israeli
bias.

Obviously, anyone who talks about dual loyalties is nuts. This guy lives in Los Angelas and yet refers to Isreal as "we" and refers to America as if it is some country he has nothing to do with. These Isreal-firsters clearly are not putting the interests of America first.

And yet, 90% of Free Republic will think this is some great article.

It may read anti-American, but it is used to make the point that Israel would not use methods that USA used in certain areas of the world. They are still trying to comb through the streets showing that they do value human lives above their own inconvenience.Also, it is American media that is trying to smear Israel on a daily basis!

No I don't think so, I believe he is talking about clinton's acts against Kosovo and Sudan because he talks about factories. You remember how clinton bombed everyone when he had a bad day. In Afghanistan our soldiers are going there and fighting.
