I swear to God, if I ever run into the IAF guys or some of these Israeli Apache Drivers, I will buy them a f%&king HUGE pitcher of beer!

My wife's late father was hidden by Carmelite nuns in an orphanage in Cologne, Germany for four years. His father was in Dachau, while his mother was in Auschwitz. Both survived, barely.

You damn right I know the stakes, here. Good to see some Islamic Nazis buy the farm day after day.

Go IDF! Kick some serious ass!

Be Seeing You,

I understand that you all think I am a deluded fool. You know, I really hope you are right, but I am afraid of what might happen if you are not.

The point is that no one wants to give up, and that's what it looks like you're advocating.

I'll ask you straight out - are you saying that we -- and by extension Israel -- should give up and give the Palis what they want? And if so, then what next? Give up Paris ? (OK, bad example) Give up Detroit? Or Boston? Where does it stop?

[johniegrad]

I guess you wouldn't have been able to pack up and get out of Europe back in time to avoid a free train trip..

Nice analogy, Jock. You been falling on your sword all day now?

[RightWingNut]

In the future, when Pali children are "hurt or killed" why don't we simply refer to them as "future terrorists".

The IDF need to do the Barney Fife thing and "Nip it in the bud" and eliminate all the "future terrorists" they possibly can.

Different story - not people who had fired missiles, people who were preparing to fire them...


IDF hits terrorists in Gaza who were preparing Kassam missile attack
By JOEL LEYDEN


The Israel Defense Forces used heliocpters this evening to hit terrorists in Gaza who were preparing Kassam missile attacks against Israeli civilian populations, a military source told the Jerusalem Post.

[jacquej]

I am all for that, and if they get beat into submission by Israel, maybe it could work politically. But!!! There has to be a awy to keep the rest of Islam to "deal" with it, and get control of the radicals.

Force is all in this. But, force can lead to unforeseen consequences. Do you think we are ready for whatever that might be? I do not.

2nd missile attack 30-minutes ago on in Gaza City (per FoxNews)

[adam_az]

You think the best solution when faced with adversity is to surrender.

Do you happen to be French, Jacque?

21:22 Hamas tentatively identifies man killed in IAF attack as Fuad Ledawi, member of its military wing

[Frank_Discussion]

If you can't think beyond the moment to see these (and more) ominous signs, I guess you wouldn't have been able to pack up and get out of Europe back in time to avoid a free train trip..

When exactly to you recieve your brain injury?

The reasons Jews were victims in Nazi Europe are twofold:

1. Most of the Jews who saw the writing on the wall left the continent, and refused to fight.

2. Most of those who stayed didn't see the writing on the wall, and didn't know to fight.

Israel is both STAYING and FIGHTING. This is a Good Thing to Do.

[Helms]

They confuse it with the News Cycle. I swear some in the media would have this s-it in our living rooms till Doomsday, at which no amount of entertainment stock will look good.

[jacquej]

You must not have read my comments very carefully. I am not advocating the extermination of Israel. I would prefer the extermination of Islamist terrorists, anywhere they might be hiding.

I hate what is happening to Israel. I worry about WW3. Some of you do not seem to care about where this could lead. This is not the same country we were in WW2.

I do not want to see Israel nuked. Get that?

[Pukin Dog]

No one is going to nuke Israel; you really should consider that nap. Things are going just as they should go. Forget all the public statements and just look at what is happening.

Hamas is forced to make the public statements that justify Israeli attacks. Abbas is going to either get killed or attempt to crack down. If he resigns, it is proof that Arafat has no pieceful intentions, and Israel can attack Hamas with impunity.

The Palestinians are in a box. I dont know why you cannot see that.

[stars & stripes forever]

Bush's "roadmap" was supposed to be the last, best hope for peace.

It depends on how you define "roadmap." The Israeli's ARE using a roadmap... to target traveling Hamas terrorists.

[palmer]

One of the better ways to control radical Islam is to use a third party like Israel, India, or someone else to do it for us. Making Israel withdraw from the conflict is not the right thing to do. On the other hand, you are right, the use of force leads to unforeseen consequences. People don't appreciate having their friends and family blown up and they try to figure out ways to get back at you. We and the Israelis can plan for and deal with some response but not for a war of attrition that drags on forever.

That is why I would propose making deals with various Palestinians and get this over with. Some can stay, some get cash to leave, and the rest get kicked out.

[JusPasenThru]

Should have put on your asbestos underwear, son.
But you are right about something. If the Palies are pushed too far they might brainwash their young people to strap explosives full of nails in order to detonate in buses and other places where they can kill large numbers of innocent Israeli women and children. We wouldn't want to happen, now, would we?

[Semper Paratus]

Hamas tentatively identifies

Sounds like he got hit good!

[Hila]

There is no road map, there is no plan, no counsel against Israel that will ever succeed. Developments will come according to the One who owns that piece of real estate, along with the whole globe - and no one will achieve a "peaceful" solution, because they are not to mess with greater plans from above. So, till Scripture is fulfilled, stay away from touching Israel.
