Palestinian militants barraged Israel with more than 200 rockets on Thursday, killing three people as Israel pressed a punishing campaign of airstrikes on militant targets across the Gaza Strip.
Late in the day, Israel signaled a ground operation may be imminent as forces moved toward the border area with Gaza. At least 12 trucks were seen transporting tanks and armored personnel carriers, and a number of buses carrying soldiers arrived. Israeli Defense Minister Ehud Barak said he had authorized the army to call-up additional reservists for possible action. The army said it was prepared to draft up to 30,000 additional troops.
"I ordered the military today to widen the draft of reserve soldiers in order to be able to be ready for any development," Barak said.

Godspeed!
Exactly!!!!
Everything is coming together, and very sharply accelerated in the past three weeks.
When an ill wind blows, I stand with Israel.

Might be fun, but I doubt there will be a month to mess around at this rate.
God Bless the IDF. Friday’s call to prayer may be a tad more sincere than usual.

Dear God,
Please have the IDF complete their mission and be home in time for Dinner.
It was mentioned that he used to be on of the top movers and shakers in the Muslim Brotherhood.

The reporter went on to say that Obama was counting on Egypt to be an ally in stopping terrorism.
Oh my and LOL, a guy affiliated with the Muslim Brotherhood (the org that started Hamas and various other terrorist groups) and Obama expects him to fight terrorism?
Not likely, he IS terrorism.
And my formula is that the Israelis take back one square mile for every rocket fired at Israel. They need to take the profit out of taking cheap shots at Israel.
