JERUSALEM — Israeli troops and armored vehicles began a massive push toward the Lebanon border late Wednesday, marking the start of a new ground offensive aimed at neutralizing Hezbollah's rocket-launching capabilities, FOX News has learned.
Israel also launched an airstrike on Lebanon's largest Palestinian refugee camp, killing at least two people. The camp is home to about 75,000 Palestinian refugees and their descendants who were displaced by the 1948 Arab-Israeli war.

I hope they kick ass all the way to the northern border with Syria, reload/refuel and keep going.

The bad news is this:
The new ground assault was approved by Israel's Security Cabinet in hopes of scoring quick battlefield victories before a cease-fire is imposed. THAT makes it sound like they're just trying to gain yardage before the referee's whistle blows.

The IAF must have lousy bombs or all their pilots are crossed eyed or blind in one eye, they launched an air strike on Lebanon's largest Palestinian refugee camp with 75,000 refugees and their descendants and they killed only 2 Palestinians?
I can kill 2 Palestinians out of 75,000 and descendants just by throwing a hand grenade.

The camp is home to about 75,000 Palestinian refugees
It's possible there was no one at home - the noise might have been rather loud lately.

There is no such thing as a refugee camp since 1948.
Thats their home . Its where they want to live. Its not a camp its a town. Do any of them work or have they been sucking on the foreign aid tit since 1948??
