Israel desperately wants the monks and nuns to leave so they can eliminate the armed Palestinians. Subjecting innocent people to this kind of sonic torture seems to go hand in hand with the Israelis general policy of seeking retribution against civilians and combatants in response to the homocide/suicide bombings of Palestinian terrorists.

Thank you for sharing your asinine opinion.

Palestinian terrorists ARE civilians.
Kinda makes it hard to sort them out.

Interesting case of selective attention you provide: is it not the Palestinians who stormed the Church? Is it not they who occupied only the Armenian and Greek Orhthodox parts, calculating and manipulating Vatican?
And, by what measures do you judge this operation? DO you want the Israelies to do what we did 20 years ago: allow the standoff, which may last for years (unlike the Arabs, they will NOT offend Christians by storming the church)?
Interesting standards you apply, especially considering your screen name. "Curiouser and curiouser," said Alice.

Israel desperately wants the monks and nuns to leave so they can eliminate the armed Palestinians. No building, no matter how historical, is worth people sacraficing their life over. The priests should just leave and let the chruch be stormed.
Of course, the truth of the matter is the preists couldn't leave even if they wanted to. They are being held as hostages.
