In pictures: Israeli Gaza assault
First one then go to the link:
Israeli forces have launched a ground offensive into southern Gaza to try to free a soldier captured by Palestinian militants.

fyi
Yeah, it's tough not having a bunker 100 feet underground, with a 30 foot thick slab on top.
Ismail Haniya thinks he's feeling the heat now -- wait'll the Israelis kidnap him.
He's in Syria... death from above for him... or some kind of car "accident"...
Nah, don't fool around with the messy stuff...put a 2,000 JDAM through his roof...wife, kids, everyone ...poof. (Next?)

I am hoping they are stuffing the gray matter back into the entrance wound in his head. Don't show the other side.
Kill 'em all and let God sort 'em out.
Mossad would rather bring him the heads of his children on a platter before they pop a cap in his hind end.
I agree. Attacking soldiers is legitimate. Unfortunately, what makes the situation less so is that Israel is pressured not not fight back. Many people, here and especially in Europe, and also some in Israel, excuse any and all attacks on Israel (including the terrorist targetted attacks on civilians), but when Israel hits millitants, even when there is no collateral damage, it is seen as an act of aggression and Israel is told to stop (the left likes to use idea that killing militants is counterproductive because every one that Israel kills, two rise in his place).
What needs to happen is a release of the shackles put on Israel. What people do not realize is that the terrorists can only be successful if they are able to hide in the populace. The Arabs know who the terrorists are, and they harbor them. As such, what the left dubs "collective punishment" (i.e. restrictions on movement, security screenings) is totally appropriate, and more extreme measures are warranted as well. What needs to happen is a shift in the mentality of the Arabs from one in which they want to resist, to one in which they truly want peace. I think that the way to do this is by defeating them and demoralizing them.
Unfortunately, those are all pipe dreams. As much as I hate to say it, it looks quite hopeless for Israel. I'm waiting, and working, for a miracle. And given recent history, I don't think that praying will help either.
"Achmed, the JEWS are coming!!!!"
That's what the "palestinians" get as a time frame to release the abducted....alive and unharmed.
Failing that, Israel should begin a scorched earth policy to forever rid the ME of the "palestinian" infestation.
No quarter and no mercy. Since the "palestinians", collectively, have seen fit to murder, pillage and destroy, they should feel the full heat of retaliation.
By any, and all, weapons at Israel's disposal.

The problem really is not that Israel is pressured not to fight back, but that they CHOOSE to honor that request. Again and again. Which -- let me guess -- enables their tormentors to believe they can get away with it again and again with no consequences. Sort of like giving your kid Time Out. Insignificant consequences = no power.
I just love that picture.
