Its about as credible as Israel's charging the U.S assault on the Taliban in Afghanistan weakened their ability to control Al Qaeda.

Do you also know the story of Telemicus (sp?), the Christian man who singlehandedly brought an end to the vicious blood sport in that bloodied Coliseum?

Can you REALLY not understand those driven to retaliate USING THE IDENTICAL METHODS OF THEIR TORMENTORS?

Can you REALLY not understand that rigging a school to explode is the work of a chicken-shit coward who is no more worthy of my support or "understanding" than any Palestinian assassin? I guess not.

I think you and the rest of America will shortly have a Whole New Perspective on terrorism and "what's appropriate" in retaliation.

Well, if I ever come to the perspective that it's "appropriate" to engage in sneak attacks against children in school, when there are plenty of extremely guilty adult targets available to me instead, I will be SURE to give you the opportunity to say you told me so. Don't hold your breath.

Israel's war is OUR war. The enemy and the method, terror, are the same.

Israel's methods are not those of the terrorists, which were adopted by the settlers in question. And, Israel arrested the settlers involved in the conspiracy. Apparently you have a problem with that. I don't. It reinforces my decision to support Israel, the civilized side.

Another Edomite "child" graduates to Arab Paradise.

So go find the bomber's kid brother and snuff him. The younger the better. If there isn't a baby brother or sister in the family, just choose one of the neighbors' brood; what the hell, right?

Go do it, big man; why should you worry about the blood on your hands? According to you, God will approve.

>But who directs this? and why?

The head on the far right of the other six directs this. For the money, the oil, the power, the family.

Ah...I see the mosque services have ended early today.

Your Mullah has given you plenty of anti-Israel grabage to post. Well done. Perhaps your next assignment can be strapping explosives around your small genitials and taking out some of those filthy Jews.

While arabs murder Jews every day, you post the same old tried sh*t about Goldstein and Deir Yasin.

I believe Irgun targeted the brits and other Governmental workers who were actively undermining the small group of Jews that were living in the land.(Land by the way that the arabs SOLD to them at highly inflated prices).

You forgot to mention that the Jews, before they went into Deir Yasin warned the people that they were coming.(Sound familiar?...Jenin maybe?)

For every one of your so called "massacres", I'll give you hundreds of attacks/massacres that arabs have perpatrated on the Jews.

Arabs have and always will be Pus*ies who love attacking innocent women and children, but run like little bit*hes when the IDF comes a calling.

Go ask your mullah why the arabs/moose limbs can't beat those monkey pigs the Jews.

I'm sure he has a very rational answer.

The United States on Tuesday said Israel's "destruction of the Palestinian Authority's security infrastructure" was partly responsible for Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat's failure to control extremists.

Who writes this stuff?
The Palestinian Authority police was limited as to the weapons they could have as a condition of every agreement signed in the last 30 years as well as every UN resolution not introduced by a Muslim country.
And ask the question: before the PLO was cleaned out recently, what was the "excuse" for the total inability to stop terror? or to keep known killers in jail?

One of the leaders of hamas recently stated that they had a twenty year suppy of suicide bombers

When did he say this, at the dinner party you and your friends threw for these murdering bastards?Or did you get the quote from Hamas.org.

Israel has been living in a state of siege as you say because of those Bi*ch arab nations that "live" around them.

You and your friends better hope that Israel stays living in "a state of siege", because if they don't theres going to be a whole lot of dead arabs.

In one post, you mentioned; a leader of Hamas,Arafat and Ho Chi Minh. Three of your greatest heroes I suppose.

Can you see Tel Aviv being renamed Arafat City?

Ya, If I smoked 20 jumbo rocks of crack and dropped 20 tabs of acid.

The only thing that will be named Arafat City is the PORT A POTTY on the road to Ramallah.

Keep dreaming.

I have taken the time to express my views in as thoughtful a manner as I am capable. You may feel free to respond if you so choose -- but I'd appreciate a thoughtful response in turn rather than a personal attack

Fine. It'll be brief. You have a real problem with proportion, and with distinguishing between acts of war, self-defense, and petty revenge. Which is all the bomb in the girls' school was, you know--revenge for sport. Those men took upon themselves the authority that belongs properly to their government or to God, and they behaved abominably with it. What they did can in no way be construed as self-defense. Sorry you can't see that, and I'm also sorry you can't see that Israel simply cannot allow individuals to annoint themselves generals and wage their own private wars against targets of their own capricious choosing--such acts can only undermine what the REAL military and the REAL government is trying to do in a time of war.

You haven't done a good job of encapsulating my think at all, btw. I'm totally prepared for the possibility that the nukes will have to be used again, if push comes to shove. But that will come after a sober, objective, and cold assessment by THE ONLY PEOPLE LEGALLY EMPOWERED TO MAKE THE DECISION (not you and me)that there is no other way--not as the result of some bitter emotional desire to "show the other guy how it feels".

And on a personal note, I'd be ashamed of myself if I were a grown man bent on revenge, and the best target I could come up with was some other people's daughters sitting at their school desks. It simply shouts that they're afraid of getting hurt if they go after, say, someone who might actually be able to fight back. To me, they're utter cowards, and not EVER to be confused with heroes.

Orthodox Jews do not take a craven delight in killing people -- especially children -- without being pushed well beyond the limits of normal self-restraint.

I suppose I should give you credit for kinda sorta admitting that these particular men DID take a craven delight in what they were planning to do, just like the terrorists.

Other than that, it's clear you just don't get it. So I'm done.
