I just don't understand why the U.S. has forced Israel to make all the concessions while forcing the palis to do little if anything.

Sad to see Israel neutered like it has been.I'm betting that when Israel strikes back, it will be with increasing force and serve to make it more costly than ever to keep attacking them. The moral authority for doing so will be stronger than ever and "cause" of the terrorists suffers an evaporating "reasoning" - kind of hard to expect further honest attempts at dealing with a scorpion that will sting you no matter how hard you try.
I would have thought the time had long passed when Israel had this moral authority, but this latest deal firms up the foundation like never before. Time to show them that earlier retributions were actually conducted with restraint.

Rocket Attack Reported in Sderot

No Response to Kassam Rocket Attack
14:20 Aug 25, '05 / 20 Av 5765
(IsraelNN.com) Sderot Mayor Eli Moial questioned why the IDF did not respond to Thursdays Kassam rocket attack, stating officials promised that following the disengagement, any rockets fired into the western Negev from Gaza would be met with a stern response.
Moial added he will not be responsible for the welfare of students in schools with rooftops that were not fortified to withstand rocket attacks, adding those schools simply will not open.
There were no injuries in the attack earlier today when two rockets were fired into the western Negev, landing in open areas.

Neither do I. Someone has quite an agenda, but not one that makes sense to someone with their head on straight.

I think every one will find that Israel will treat the Palestine the same way it has treated other states that Lob shells across its boarder. I believe there will be concentrated Artillery fire and Air strikes against those communities that are supporting the actions.
You will see the ratio of death go up to about 1000 to 1

Moral authority test will never happen. The U.N. is adamantly against Israel and for the arabs and palestinians.
Jews made one mistake in history, they landed in about the only place not floating on oil in the middle east.
If they had landed in say Kuwaitt then the U.N. would kiss Israelis asses like the do the arabs.
Uncle Sam is there kissing too, don't get me wrong.

The pull out from Lebanon was so clever, because now it is just a conventional military situation, and the government of Lebanon has to restrain Hezbollah, lest it lose its power to an Israeli invasion. Oops, no, that is nonsense from start to finish, isn't it? Yet it is entirely parallel to the fantasies being peddled by those defending Sharon's Gaza pullout.

Saudis paid the Brits to ask us to. There are about $500 billion calling for Israeli defeat. Plus the hands on the spigot as oil hits $68. That's a lot of "votes".

A good place to start would be the Bakaa Valley.
