The court of world opinion is not nearly as important as Israel thinks it is. Message to Israel: Do what you have to do to protect your citizens and F world opinion.

I take your post to mean that I should pray about this. I have and shall, but I fear we are past that now. I fear many will die and there will be innocents among them. Pehaps there is a chance that the Palistinians will come to their senses.

I think its time for Israel to fight and with the Lords help win.

Look, as far as I am concerned Islam has made it's decision.

They made their bed and now it's time to force them to sleep in it. Because, who could live like this?

Seriously, they are so thick headed and violent they start trouble, get both the Jews and the Hindus angry and then whine about being "oppressed" and how wrong it all is.

They start trouble, lose wars, lose land and then whine and blow themselves up. It's become a protocol to these people.

A succinct history of the last fifty years.

A series of craven, murderous attacks targeting women and children, followed by sound military defeat, and incessant whining--all the while secretly preparing more craven, murderous attacks targeting women and children.

Were this sniper attack in America, the ATF would've gone house to house and confiscated every weapon and shot every a&&h*le who got in the way.

Send the ATF--for once they would be on the right side.

That is one well trained sniper.

And I keep reading and hearing from friends that the CIA trained them.

Surely--just as Krauthammer and Netanyahu have repeatedly pointed out--Arafat's gang have exceeded the stipulated police strength, and possess unauthorized weapons.

It is likely true that our FBI or CIA has trained this gang, and armed them.

Release the forensics--let's see what gun was used.

Exactly right.

Honestly? I wouldn't trust those dumbells to fall out of a tree.

They would wind up shooting Sharon, his neighbors and themselves before they brought in a tank and set the place on fire to destroy evidence.

THEN they would issue a statement calling him an "extreemist right wing militia member, plotting to take over the world" with a "cache of weapons, including a .22 marlin semi auto with hundreds of rounds of ammunition"

These direct assaults against Israeli military are an ominous development.

Why would the ragheads be escalating now, given that the US has its troops in the field and looking for trouble?

Together with the increased atrocities against civilians, it is an increase in the intensity of the provocation. They are trying to draw us in, or draw the Israeli army into action. Why?

One can only speculate, but it feels to me like an overall plan is being enacted, with the goal perhaps of dealing a decisive blow. That can only mean use of some kind of WMD, here or in Israel.

Perhaps this what GW meant when he said "Time is not on our side." Perhaps this is why Sharon is biting the bullet day after day. They must know something is afoot.

The end result will be holocaust for the barbarians, but they already have shown scorn for life itself, and at what cost to civilization?

Taking aim from a hilltop, a sniper killed 10 soldiers and civilians at a checkpoint Sunday in the deadliest of a two-day string of Palestinian attacks that killed 21 Israelis...

Didn't Ehud "advised by Carville" Barak offer the Palestenian the Golan Heights as part of the Clinton "Save My Legacy" Futility Tour?

Well, Sharon is putting a "Buffer Zone" into effect (which I think is a sharp move on his part) and they might be trying to get in under the wire before it's complete.

I mean, it's no fun blowing yourself up outside the fence..

I believe so, yes.. And, of course Yassir turned him down flat.

Bibi bitched the whole time (if I remember right.. been a while) about giving up land for peace..

Imo, Bibi was right.

It is time for the Palestinians to feel the wrath of God.

You have inadvertently touched on the primary reason that I donot belong to any organized religion. It seems that in war, both parties pray to God for help. Frankly, If I were God, I would not help either side to win. I would try to prevent the confrontation, but once started, I would be a spectator.

Just a thought. Not a condomnation of religion. I believe war is or should be a non-religious enterprise. Especially when both sides are praying for victory.

Yeah, well I just got off the phone with them and it seems they hit a snag with the whole "peacekeeper deployment" thing when the airport wouldn't accept Euros as payment for their fuel.

They asked me to Western Union them some greenbacks so they can get on with saving the planet.

We got it all worked out.. everything is under control.

This is a marked change in tactics. The method to date has been a bomb or blazing away with an AK-47 on a street corner until gunned down. Could be bad news for checkpoints. It might be best to fold up shop and go home.
