No such thing.

[FReepaholic]

Thanks. I thought that might be the case.

No, you’re thinking of Cleveland, I’d say...

Yes you're right. My bad.

[Left2Right]

Israel needs to declare open war with gaza and raze it to the ground. There are no innocents there.

Gaza Delenda Est.

[justiceseeker93]

Fortunately, no Israeli civilians were killed nor seriously wounded ... yet ... in this incident. But the fact that the Gazans have increased the range of their rockets marks a definite escalation in the situation.

Israel had better undo the disastrous "disengagement" and retake Gaza ASAP.

Time for Olmert to cut bait or fish

Olmert is already planning how he can give the Palestinians more land, including Jerusalem.

It should be interesting when one half of Jerusalem is sending rockets against the other half. I'm sure Olmert will be pleased.

[justiceseeker93]

You might be thinking of Ashtabula, Ohio.

“Time for Olmert to cut bait or fish.”

What does that mean? (to cut bait or fish?)

[txhurl]

It means DO SOMETHING.

Either bring in fish, or help by cutting up the bait.

[rbosque]

I wonder if the left will cry like they do when we use our military.
Those Palestinians could have certainly used the money to “buy food and medicine instead of rockets”. (If I may use the left’s mantra.)

[justiceseeker93]

Ping!

[Yitzchak]

LOL. That makes much more sense than what I was thinking!

American idioms are very difficult.

I am going to go drink some beer.

Push the palesite infestation into the sea..

[Zionist Conspirator]

My, but sending in the IDF to forcibly evict Jews from Gaza so it could be turned over to the PLO sure was a smart thing to do, wasn't it??? [/sarcasm]

I suppose the current Israeli government will respond by giving them even more territory from which to attack them!

How does Olmert survive over there???

[ridesthemiles]

I vote for turning Gaza into glass.....

[NormsRevenge]

Time to either do the job he was elected to do or .. move on..

Zechariah 9:5 Ashkelon will see it and fear; Gaza will writhe in agony, and Ekron too, for her hope will wither. Gaza will lose her king and Ashkelon will be deserted.

interesting ...

Very!

[OB1kNOb]

G-d’s safety be upon you all over there.

[justiceseeker93]

I don’t quite understand what the mayor of Ashkelon means when he says “we’re willing to pay the price.” Does he think that if the IDF does nothing in Gaza, the rocket fire on his city will stop? The word “price” implies that Israeli action in Gaza will cause an escalation in the rocket fire. In fact, only by retaking control of Gaza can Israeli citizens be confident that the rocket fire from there will cease.

Thanks justiceseeker93. Israel is getting ready to dismember Hamas, close Gaza’s border with Egypt, and some other stuff.
