As far as I am aware, Netanyahu has been bombing Gaza since last night. BareNakedIslam had a video showing it.
Please post the linky!
The Netanyahu Cabinet was due for another meeting to determine Israel’s response in regards to the three teens killed. They haven’t come up wit h anything yet.
The attacks in Gaza are part of long-standing routine that Israel has going on with Hamas.
Hamas fires rockets into Israel, then Israel fires missiles at Hamas operatives and their buildings! They have been going around and around this way for a very long time!
On the Debka site, they comment that Netanyahu is bombing empty Hamas buildings in Gaza.
Lets face it, once word was out that bodies were found, the terrorists hightailed out of them no doubt.
The protestors see the government’s military action as limited and symbolic, not decisive like Ariel Sharon’s operations in Lebanon in 1982 that killed PLO by the hundreds and trapped Arafat in front of the beach in Beirut.
The PLO could have been eliminated and crushed at that point had it not been for the intervention of Ronald Reagan, who put Marines along with French and Italian troops onto the Beirut coast as a buffer force among warring parties.
The PLO was allowed to escape and gain political power in the future when Israel dealt it to them in secret negotiations to create the Palestinian Authority.
That made the right wing in Israel mad, too. There was plenty of suicide terrorism that came from PA territory.
In history take note Johnson and Nixon bombed Vietnam a lot and it stopped the communists from taking it over??????
There’s been so much bombing in Afghanistan and Pakistan and that has defeated the terrorists there, too??????
Douglas MacArthur wanted a total war in Korea, Truman wanted a limited war (police action) under UN authority.
Nobody fights total wars to destroy enemies anymore including the Israeli governments of today.
