Maybe they would understand a smart bomb targeted on that idolatrous Borg Cube at Mecca.

Was it "just" the tomb that was desecrated, or the grave/body/bones of Joseph? Either way is unacceptable, but the latter is clearly much worse.
If I were Sharon, I'd send in hundreds of tanks and thousands of troops to guard the site on a constant basis. Any trouble from the crowds, and I'd order the liberal use of live ammunition. Allowing this desecration has been an affront to the religious ideals that are responsible for modern Israel's creation (and I say that as a quite UNobservant Jew), as well as a political and military challenge to the State of Israel. For the sake of his and Israel's negotiating credibility, if nothing else (and there IS much else), Sharon MUST act. It is a source of great shame that he hasn't.
Oh, BTW, as far as retaliation is concerned, I think it is certainly in order. I imagine that the depositing of a large number of pigs, preferably with a full digestive system, into the Al-Aqsa Mosque would deliver the appropriate message - after, of course, the obligatory gunshot to scare the $#%* out of them.

Okay, I'm not trying to be a wisenheimer here, but I would really like to know, is that all they can do is destroy?
Is there anything they have done lately that is a contribution to the world?

Any explanation of why the [Israeli] government doesn't, apparently, give a s*** about Jewish holy sites being destroyed? If I was in charge, I would have the IDF bulldoze everything within 50 yards of Kever Yosef put up a chain link fence and, yes dammn it, BUILD A BIG FREAKIN' SETTLEMENT.
