[Polybius]

It is not a military decision to uproot your citizens, destroy their homes, livelihoods and places of worship and force them dig up their dead. Maybe the Chinese and the old Soviets, the Nazis, thought those military decisions, but Democracies don't.

Spare me the melodrama.

The Federal or State Government can order you to leave a soon to be disaster area and it can also raze you home to the ground if needed in order to establish a fire-break when fighting a forest fire.

Mandatory evacuation ordered for Florida's east coast

As for the graves, it is common sense not to leave them behind.

Thirty graves which are at risk of being washed away, are to be relocated from Lloyd's cemetery in Yallahs, St Thomas to another site in the community.

Living in a democracy does not mean that the Government will allow a community to commit mass suicide.

Moving for a fire, you then return.

Forget harping on your military fantasies. The controlling issue here is Democracy. Sharon won in a landslide on a promise to never do this.

He said he would abide by the Likud decision. He lied. He said he would not retreat under fire. He lied

If you side's arguments are valid, take them to the people. If the people consent -then the people are fools- but so be it.

Suicide for all of Israel is when Israel shows weakness and runs from terror.
