This is very sad....But looks well handled on the soldiers' part. None of them really want to be doing this this way.
Hamas said it would not immediately retaliate to enable the Gaza pullout to proceed.
"But if these crimes continue, factions will not stand by silently," said spokesman Sami Abu Zuhri
??? Hamas stand by Silently??? when did that ever happen??
Quote "Can anyone name one thing the Palestinians have given up in the interest of peace?"
Can you list some things they HAVE to even give up? Not much.
There has been give and take on both sides. Israel is the one that is occupying the land. Give the Palestinians a state and then see what happens. You lump ALL of the Palestinians together...those who are bringing terror and violence do NOT represent the majority.
Yeah I know the quote was from someone else...sorry just cut and pasted and then hit reply. :)

That is for sure. These kids are forced into military service (I believe for three years). Most of them are students and or young people. This isn't want they want to be doing with their day.
Some American named Naomi Wolf was interviewed and asked for her opinion since she is Jewish. She said that the military are treating the settlers so courteously in contrast to how they treat Palestinian protestors and that they should treat the Palestinians more humanely. I was stunned at her ignorance. The settlers are nonviolent; Palestinians extremists want to do harm. Of course the military will react differently in each situation.
As a Jewish Grand child from Holocaust survivors I am ashamed and disgusted by the crazy settlers who are displaying Nazi era images at their protest
SHAME ON YOU!!!
You gave the anti-Semites and Holocaust deniers something they never dreamed of getting from Jews
Some fear militants will resume bloodshed once Israel's Gaza withdrawal is complete.Although through this pullout Israel will have less territory to defend, it will not stop hundreds of years of Pali heritage where kids are taught from birth that the most noble thing they can do is kill Jews.
The killings will continue until this most basic and deeply ingrained mindset is changed. That, if it can be done at all, will take several generations at least.
"Hmmm... and where are the posts denouncing the Jewish man who killed 4 people? "
Don't be a jerk, there have been plenty on other threads.
"The majority of Israel wants out of the Gaza."
A very narrow majority - close to a dead heat.
The percentage in support of the fallout has dropped in every onth polled tll now where it is just shy of a dead heat.
A near equal percentage of Israelis faver the expulsion of Arabs from Gaza, btw.
Porat: IDF Left Terrorists in Churches but Forces Jews from Synagogues
18:20 Aug 18, '05 / 13 Av 5765
(IsraelNN.com) Former Knesset Member Rabbi Chanan Porat tearfully said Thursday night that the Sharon government refused to allow soldiers to remove terrorists who hid in Bethlehem churches last year but ordered them to evict Jews from Gush Katif synagogues Thursday.
He spoke to an Israel radio reporter who was describing the violence between expulsion opponents and security forces and asked Porat," Was all this necessary? Isn't this [scene] the fault of the national religious [camp]?"
Porat said the scene was not necessary and the fault is the "evil Prime Minister Ariel Sharon." The Israel Radio reporter, in questioning Porat, accused the opponents of being responsible for desecration of holy objects by holding Torah scrolls during the forced evacuation.
This scene now at the synagogue is just a mess.
~sigh~
I am watching Fox coverage and it is heartbreaking! This is just wrong....Wrong! Alouette, how can the IDF do this? Your children don't have to do it do they?
How are you feeling today? I am very sad, but also await the Lord's vengence....very bad day....very bad!
Where are they from?
Arrafat was an Egyptian, is that a Palestinian? Is someone from Jordan a Palestinian?
Palestine was a term used by the Romans during Occupation of Judea/Sumaria.
There isn't a Palestine, nor a Palestinian...
I unleash the power of the kitties!
It's not The Wall, it's The Fence. The Wall is in Jerusalem.
The whole thing is so complex that I don't know what's the right or wrong thing to do, but this IS extremely emotional and hard to watch.
I pray for the day when this headline will be true. When Gaza and all of Israel is clear of enemies.
I just imagine many of these images will be on Al-Jazeera (sp?).
