And I totally understand your points as well. Have you ever heard of the Bielski Brothers? They are my heroes - they believed that it was more important to save a Jew than to kill a Nazi. However, they killed a lot of Nazis while saving more than a thousand Jews — the largest number of Jews saved by Jews during WW2. If you are doomed either way, you go down fighting in my book. Obama, and Bush 2 before him, have been doing the slow strangle of Israel - so go ahead and be civilized for as long as you can. Once you are in that corner for real, then what? (and no, I am not a Jew - I am die-hard follower of Jesus).

The BM-21 “Grad” is a modified truck launcher that carries 40 120mm M-21 unguided rockets. In WW2, earlier version of this vehicular mounting was called the “Katyusha” or “Stalin's Organ”. The BM-21 with its multiple launch tubes replaced the earlier BM-13 truck launcher with its open rail launcher.

To bad the Israelis don't respond on a round-for-round basis with some M26 rockets from the MLRS (multiple launch rocket system). Each of the M26 rockets contain 644 submunitions that can really ruin your day.
