OPINION: Israel is well known for its targeted strikes strategy.
What America will do regarding Americans being killed I don't know.
Let me check the White House news site to see if they have an opinion on this.

Nothing there yet.
Site will probably be updated in the a.m.

Elias Ashkar was involved in almost every terror attack in Israel in the last year
In a joint IDF, ISA and Israeli Police arrest operation today, May 14th 2006, in the village of Kabatiya, south of Jenin, IDF forces encircled the structure in which several Islamic Jihad terrorists were hiding. An exchange of fire ensued between the forces and the wanted men, five of the gunmen were killed. Among them was Elias Ashkar, the most wanted Islamic Jihad terrorist in the West Bank, who was responsible for almost all the terror attacks carried out inside Israel in the last year, including the most recent terror attack in Tel Aviv on April 17th in which the number of Israelis killed rose today to 11.
Ashkar was currently involved in planning a suicide bombing inside Israel.
What America will do regarding Americans being killed I don't know.
The question is how interesting it'll get when the American government does as little as it has with our southern border, and private citizens have to deal with the matter in their own fashion, their own government being too incompetent or corrupt to do so.
