Has the IDF issued a Operation 8 yet? (not sure if it’s called Operation..but pretty sure it’s not a Section 8) Calling Corp. Klinger...Klinger, please pick up the white dress...

“Some demonstrators have even accused Israel of Nazi tactics. But why the double standard?” they continued.

“Where were the emergency sessions of the Security Council when for seven months Hamas missiles targeted 500,000 Israelis? Why was there no U.N. late night sessions then? And why didn’t those same demonstrators who now condemn Israel take to the streets when Israeli civilians faced daily rocket attacks for those seven months?”

I agree with you, but they’re the ones on the ground and we’re the ones safe and warm 10 or more thousand miles away. Going in with ground troops almost seems like a throwaway move certain to cost IDF, lives, perhaps many of them, but equally certain to draw out some Hamas elements to be killed off. That “proportional” thing.

Hamas has 15,000 under arms. I will not be satisfied until at least 10,000 of them have met their virgins who look like Helen Thomas!

Israel should not stop until there is no PLO, Hamas, or any other living explosive devices left in the area. After all Israel has done to try and make peace and meet these nitwits half way, I’d say they just need to TAKE the whole area for their own. Take it all and never surrender a single grain of sand there after.

I totally agree with you. Take it, hold it, never relinquish it. Painful history has too many reminders of what happens when you cede land to muslims. They want it all.
