This is why Condie Rice must never become President. "Restraint?" Dear Condie, when your country is attacked in an act of war, you do not react with restraint. (At least have the temerity to acknowledge Israel is at war - and not just with Hezbollah, who are proxies of Iran, whose dictator is sworn to wipe Israel off the map). You fight back and defeat the enemy! I don't know what it is in the State Department water that causes her to spout such nonsensical bupkis. I know diplomats are paid to lie for their country but this borders on the grotesque. What is it about being at war our Secretary Of State does not understand? Israel was attacked wantonly from another country, its soldiers were killed and abducted. That Ms. Secretary, is an act of war. And now as the Bible says, its a time not for restraint, but a time for war!
(The Palestinian terrorist regime is the crisis and Israel's fist is the answer.)
