Operation Cast Lead

I've been away from the T.V. and Radio for a while. Is this pronounced "Leeed" or lead like a fishing weight?

Neither one, it is pronounced lead as in bullets fired at Hamas by the IDF.

I wondered that myself since I’ve only read of it not heard it spoken but I think its lead like the fishing weight. “Cast Lead” as in “throwing iron”.
