If Israel were any more "restrained" in their fight for survival, they'd be blowing up their own buses.

Couldn't have said it better myself - Israel has been very restrained over the past few years while it's citizens continue to be murdered by terrorists. A line was crossed, and I'm sure those who crossed it knew they were crossing it - kidnapping Israeli soldiers is not something one thinks up a few minutes before they do it.
