Today's calm

Arab Terrorists Continue Attacks on IDF in Gaza
19:50 Aug 11, '05 / 6 Av 5765


(IsraelNN.com) Arab terrorists fired on IDF troops near Gush Katif's largest town, Ne'vei Dekalim a short time ago. There were no injuries. Prime Minister Ariel Sharon has declared that the expulsion, planned to start next Wednesday, will take place without "a single shot" from Arab terrorists. They have fired on IDF troops several times a time the past week and have fired several rockets and mortars on Jewish communities.

In northern Gaza, where the government intends to dismantle three Jewish communities, army sappers have safely neutralized a 25-kilogram (55-pound) bomb that soldiers discovered earlier on Thursday.

You SHOULD post pics.

The pictures of the Jewish communities in Gaza are beautiful, verdant and bucolic. It is incredibly sad to think that these clean, open little villages are about to be plowed under. Please post pictures so everyone can see that we are not talking about several people living in a trailer in a sandy desert.

I'll dig some up. Because you're absolutely right. I've always been in support of the settlements but I had no idea how beautifully developed they were until I saw pictures.

Let me rephrase that.

A big victory awarded to and "given" (Literally and figuratively) to Hamas/Palestinians for acts of terrorism in hopes that appeasement will work.

Netanyahu is the only "power that be" on the good side who is starting to get this.

Who in his right mind would willingly live in that landfill anyway?

That's what the Arabs told the Jews who built in Gaza. The area they built on was wasteland and now it produces a large percentage of produce for Israel.

Is it Democracy when the people's will is ignored?

Hundreds of thousands of Israeli opponents to Israel's disengagement plan from the Gaza Strip and the northern West Bank settlements, demonstrate at Rabin Square in Tel Aviv.

Calm and fewer attacks means that now instead of a dozen attempted shootings a day on isolated roads, there is one or two attacks daily with dozens of mortars and artillery rockets into the suburbs targeting people in their homes. This must be more of Bush's logic that says that Islam is a religion of peace.

Bush is either a bold faced liar, or out of touch with reality. Either one scares me for the sake of America.

"Islam is a religion of peace". I'm not aware that they are purposely deceiving anyone.

Indeed, you are very unaware.

"There was an Intifada and killing and now there is calm and there are fewer attacks, and in the long run this will be good for Israel's security," he said.

I have not been so embarrassed by my President since he took his shoes off in that filthy D.C. mosque to declare Islam the "religion of peace" while Ground Zero still smouldered. Shame!

Why is this a surprise?

Bush has the same attitude about the southwest - he is slowly ceding it back to Mexico.

"We must realize that the situation is in constant flux so policies need to compensate. I'm not aware that they are purposely deceiving anyone."

Either they're both lying, or they're both stupid.
