... YOU CANNOT win a war by bombing alone.

Sure you can. Use nuclear bombs.

[elhombrelibre]

How many days did we bomb Saddam in the first Gulf War before we invaded and liberated Kuwait? How many days did we bomb Serbia and Kosovo prior to the Serbians standing down and allowing the non-challenged entry of KFOR? It seems to me that there is no need for the Israelis to rush their ground forces in as long as they do not need to. If failing to do so was leading to large numbers of Israelis killed, then it would make sense to send in the infantry. If the choice becomes allowing Hamas to stay in power or low casualties for the IDF, then I'd day the Israeli ground forces should take the casualties. The end result needs to be that Hamas is destroyed. This will give another opportunity for peace that the Palestineans may choose to miss, and it will be a good setback for Iran in its proxy war with civilization.

Au contraire! Now that the Democrats are in the driver seat, everything that they choose to do, is winnable and good.

"After eleven weeks of bombing in the spring of 1999, the United States and NATO ultimately won the war in Kosovo. Serbian troops were forced to withdraw, enabling an international military and political presence to take charge in the region." "Winning Ugly; NATO's War to Save Kosovo"

You cannot win a war when traitors are permitted to run your country.

This was never going to be a war. It was smackdown from the air designed to force a cessation of Hamas missiles. When the Hamastanians get tired of fire being rained down on their heads, their leaders getting hammered from the air, and want to rebuild their tunnels, they will call for a truce.

The Olmert/Livni leadership never wanted to wage war.

These dirt-bags voted overwhelmingly for Hamas and therefore everybody in Gaza should be treated as a combatant. If they really want peace with those two legged cockroaches they should only accept total surrender , nothing else.

Have you read that the U. S. is sending $85 Million to Palestine, via the U. N.? Aiding the enemy of our Allies is Treason, right? Click Here, then throw up
