What They're Saying About The IDF's Attack in Gaza

Former Mossad head MK Danny Yatom (Labor) says that if yesterday's attack against several members of the top leadership of Hamas had succeeded, "it would have had a major impact on Hamas' ability to perpetrate terrorism against Israel - not forever, but for a period of weeks or months." He said that Israel is justified in going after Hamas leaders "even if they are in Jordan or wherever they are."

Responding to those who oppose the "liquidation" policy and say that it simply perpetuates a "cycle of violence," former IDF Chief of Staff Dan Shomron said this morning, "Hamas states clearly that there is no place for a Jewish state in Israel. Arafat, too, feels this way, though he tries to hide it, while people like Abu Mazen and Dahlan realize that they will get nowhere in the foreseeable future with that approach. We will never wipe out everyone who feels like Hamas, but we want to get to a point where the majority of them, or the guiding line, will take what is called the more 'moderate' approach. We don't have to keep asking ourselves if it leads to a cycle of violence or not; we have to know that little by little, more and more of them are realizing that terrorism will not help them, and we have to continue this way until we complete this mission."

Several government ministers are in favor of expelling Arafat, an option that has been discussed on and off for over two years. Foreign Minister Silvan Shalom said, "Arafat's expulsion is an inevitable consequence after his many years of involvement in terrorism, and his many years of trying to murder Israelis and prevent any type of organized peace process between us and them." Public Security Minister Tzachi HaNegbi, speaking with Arutz-7 today, took a more moderate position, saying that he had not yet made up his mind. He said he is not sure if allowing Arafat to roam from one world capital to another would be advantageous for Israel. Prime Minister Sharon is leaving for India tomorrow, and has not said if and when he will convene a meeting on this issue.

I'll say it one more time:

Expel the father of modern terror from life, via the rope.

Do it in the name of the tens of thousands who have died because of him.

[Winston Smith]

Wish our president would have said the above words!!

"Appeasement only makes the aggressor more aggressive"- Dean Rusk. How many little children and innocent Israeli's or other foriegners have to be slaughtered by these animals. These so-called "brave warriors" WHO WEAR HOODS, are dispicable cowards, who don't have the guts to face a real Israeli soldier on the battlefield. It is time to hunt these animals down like the dogs they are and help them find their way home to Allah.

Next time do what the US did when it thought Sadaam was in the restaurant- use 4 2,000 pound bombs. Not these single 500 pound jobs.
