Okay, I agree, go proportionate.

Lob several rockets per day into Gaza for the next several years. The UN will look the other way. I promise. They did it for Hamas.

One who pokes a sleeping lion with a stick should not expect the lion to simply poke back with a stick should he wake up.

And yet that is the way Hamas wants Israel to react. I believe that the Irsraeli government has a moral obligation to protect its citizenry. And the only way to do that, where Hamas is concerned, is to completely destroy the threat. Not wound or severely cripple the Hamas orginization, but completely destroy it. Make sure, to the best of their ability, that Hamas is never seen on the face of this earth again.

I like your sleeping lion/stick analogy.

This is so stupid.

Any good war plan is “disproportional.”

7 to 1 is the only thing I remember from stupid-leutenant-school.

Really important point, EVERYONE in the Western World needs to be on their toes in a public place, these maniancs, and their Lkiberal sympathisers will undoubtedly seek reprisals for the actions in Gaza.

I disagree with the author.

I think they should have a massively disproportionate response for at least seven years. I don't want Hamas equally terrified. I want them to assume room temperature.
