Nice work.

[stumpy]

Did or does anybody else notice that the terrorist heads send other peoples children out to commit suicide and man the "front lines", while they remain in "hideouts" with armed men to protect them? Brave leaders aren't they?

Israeli troops on Friday killed two leading Palestinian militants, including the mastermind of a Passover suicide bombing in Israel that killed 26 people and triggered Israel's current military offensive....

What a shame! (/sarcasm)

I am sure that this warms the cockles of Bush's heart, even if he can't smile too much about it in public. Still, it would be nice to hear him say publicly that he's glad that justice has been served.

Awais was responsible for scores of shooting and bombing attacks on Israelis in the past 18 months of fighting.

The IDF seems to be decapitating the terrorists. Good plan. If the bombings continue, they can start working their way down the pallie ranks until there's no one left to order a bombing.

Since you bring up the peculiar reporting habits of these news services...Has anyone noticed it's been several days since we've heard of a suicide bomber getting through? For the last two days I haven't even heard of an attempt.

Last week these same news reporters were assuring us that Israel's moves were making no difference in the bombings. Now we can see that it made a difference and that Arafat could have done something to decrease the violence.

Two more Jihadist demons are summoned home to hell.

TWO down and how many more to go

[Howlin]

Yes, they are. And I have noticed that for some reason they NEVER condemn any of their people's acts, but insist that WE condemn anything that Israel or the U.S. does. You can add the press to this.

That seems fair, doesn't it? DUH.

Haven't any of you noticed that Powell isn't arriving until late next week?

Geez, I guess Bush understands that it takes a long, long time to turn an army around on a dime. Can't be done overnight, dontcha know.

Somehow I don't see the White House all upset about Israel's continued advances.

Be Seeing You,

The sycophantic leftist media pronounced Israel's anti-terrorist operation a failure when it was in its early stages. At the time, the Israelis had only managed to take over Ramallah, but Peetah Jennings and Ashley Banfields were screaming about the "brutal re-occupation" is not stopping suicide bombings.

Or how about the media reports that IDF killed a Palestinian nurse along with several "militants" in Jenin, while failing to say that she was the head of the local Al-Aqsa terrorist group cell.

[Howlin]

MSNBC just announced that Israel has arrested the PA Information Minister. Still mopping up, I guess. :-)

IDF shouldn't stop until all the scum is gone. The media is going to have a hard time spinning success and reporting it as failure. I'm sure that won't stop them from trying though.

From the AP article referenced in post #18:
"A Hamas political official in Jenin said all six men were militants from the group and vowed a painful retaliation for their deaths."

I wonder if this piece of suidae excrement realizes these deaths are retaliation for their monstrously inhuman religious war they are waging against Israel. Nah, I doubt it being as their Islamic jihad influenced minds are incapable of rational thought processes.

"A Hamas political official in Jenin said all six men were militants from the group and vowed a painful retaliation for their deaths."

Hamas must be utterly exterminated, as a necessary (though not sufficient) step toward peace over there.
