Prime Minister Ehud Olmert and top defense officials will meet Sunday to discuss their next moves in Gaza, though the Israel Defense Forces policy is not expected to change. Olmert and Defense Minister Ehud Barak are said to support more actions like the ones over the weekend.

I’m in favor of the kind of occupation that in the end would allow the whole festering sh*t-hole to be occupied by two privates in a Humvee.

It’s long overdue for Israel to locate these Arab terrorists calling themselves “Palestinians” from Gaza and the West Bank to their Arab homelands - Jordan, Egypt, Lebanon - the Arab countires are the countries that should long ago have invited these people in if they really cared about their brethren. Sharon and all who supported him were foolish to have moved the Israel’s citizens from their productive, peaceful communities of Gaza. It’s time for Israel to get rid of the world terrorists from Gaza and relocate the peaceful Jews of Gaza back to Gaza.

Gaza isn’t that big, you could destroy the entire area with conventional munitions.
