Little more info on these things since it's been a topic of discussion. Not really all that complicated to build or find the materials for and no tank in the world can survive one.

The first thing that occurred to me when I read this was, "welcome to Vietnam". The VC and the NVA did the same to us from time to time. The big difference is that the VC/NVA did not have the access to 152-155 mm projos that the Palestinians have.

Sharon maybe should start rethinking his strategy. If he keeps on the route he has apparently decided upon, I think he (and therefore Israel) will lose.

Guerrillas frequently, sooner or later, come up with a deterrent to the stronger power's offensive weapons.

Keep in mind: guerrilla war is the fight of the weaker against the stronger.

Our war against "world terroism" is nothing more than a world-wide guerrilla war.

So far we have done well against this Evil. God Help us to do well in the future.

One obvious response would be to stop travelling the roads that the Palis would likely have pre-placed the mines on.

This will be hard on settlements, with 50-ton rampaging through sidestreets, perhaps through the buildings themselves, but they asked for it.

For starters, they should have flensed the hiding place (Mosque) down to the bare soil.

Then they should have gotten serious.
