Operation Just and Necessary(Want Peace?, Kill Hamas)
Cross Action News ^ | 1-9-09 | Dr. Earl Tilford

As soon as Israeli air strikes began striking Hamas-controlled Gaza, many American church leaders started calling for an immediate ceasefire based solely on human suffering rather than the political realities of the situation. Operation Cast Lead, Israel’s ongoing effort to end indiscriminate rocket and mortar attacks on surrounding Israeli towns and villages, is necessary, morally justified, and legitimate, despite the calamitous cacophony from the loquacious Christian left.

Hamas plans to maximize civilian casualties
"This map, confiscated Wednesday (Jan. 7) by IDF paratroopers operating in the north of Gaza,
shows how Hamas uses an entire neighborhood,
rigging it with explosive devices and putting the entire civilian population at great risk."

"The map shows the al-Tatraa neighborhood in Gaza City divided into three areas of operation
(red, blue and green). The dots on the map indicate where Hamas operatives had planted
a variety of IEDs (improvised explosive devices), with the colors indicating the type of IED.
Additional marks show sniper positions next to mosques.
Next to the entrance of the el-Tawid mosque near to Shauuda Plaza
at the top left of the map there is a sniper posting with marking
indicating the direction of fire marked on the map.
At the bottom center of the map there is a gas station where
Hamas planted an IED which, if activated, could cause a
very large explosion throughout the neighborhood."

Human shields are legitimate targets. Anyone who stays in a area that is launching rockets is a combatant and should be killed.

The Palestinians are like the Germans. They will have to bled white before they can be convinced to stop.

I think that once Israel is finally committed to doing what ever it takes (even exterminating the Palestinians) then they will have peace.

They don’t even have to do anything other than prove their resolve. Sadly I don’t think that they have it in them.

I wonder how many of those churches had called for an end to the bombing of Japan during the 1940’s.

Anyone calling for a cease-fire now, while Israeli operations are underway, who was silent during Hamas rocket attacks on Israeli civilians, stands exposed as a terrorist sympathiser.

You can’t be a “peace activist” if you only demand peace when the terrorists are under attack. If you weep for Palestinian dead, but were prepared to do nothing to defend Israeli citizens, you are exposed. We know who you are.

“Christian” Left? No. Terrorist sympathisers. Lets call a spade a spade. Terrorists usually have an above-ground political arm. This is them.
