Sounds like a good start!

They should just destroy the whole town.

I wonder if they bothered to clear the house of "innocents".

Would have been a waste of time.

I dunno, if someone murdered one of my family members and all they did was bulldoze the murderer's house, I think I'd probably feel more than a little angry at my government.

I bet he'll never do that again.

Is this an implicit green light to nuke Saudi Arabia for 9/11?? If so, I'm all for it.

It is a start, but barely. When a suicide bomber kills himself it should result in a death sentence for every living member of his family including those living abroad. Therefore, instead of a suicide bomber killing X amount of people, it would now take a suicide family to do the same amount of damage. Of course Saddam will relish such an action by Isreal because he won't have to pay out the $25,000 reward anymore.

The only way to stop the terrorist attacks on Israel is to remove Arafat. Not kill, him just remove him and put him someplace else. That is the only threat the PA will listen to. The tit for tat approach no longer works.

I just caught the Jesse Jackson lip service to God only knows who the hell he is speaking for.

I heard him say "Hammas is beyond anything they are" and I forget but I think I could substitute the word Savages and not Mike.

There need to be bodies, not bulldozed houses. How lame.
It's like seeing a cockroach and then stepping on the empty potato chip bag he came out of. First, you must step on every cockroach you see. Then you must find and destroy the nests, all of them. This is the only effective way to end your cockroach problem

The simplest solution would be the Centauri one. (You B5 fans know what I'm talking about.)

Kill 500 Palestinians for every Jew the Palestinians kill.

Of course, everyone would be so appauled by this solution that they would get together to destroy Israel completely, despite the fact that much, much worse goes on in many other places in the world.

Relatives of a suicide bomber who blew himself up two days ago in Jerusalem, sit amid the ruins of their home in Beit Jala near Bethlehem, after the Israeli army blew it up in retaliation on August 1, 2002. In a separate Palestinian attack, four Americans, a Frenchman and two Israelis were killed in a blast which devastated a crowded cafeteria at Jerusalem's Hebrew University.
