Now this overly aggressive response by Israel to the kidnapping of two soldiers.
Horror stories??? Far too many.
"Humane war"???
Never happened yet.
The innocents suffer for the mistakes of others.
Same old, same old.
Question: Do you honestly think that our present leadership will in anyway influence the current outcomes?
I'm interested in your take on this... and btw, those rockets aren't manufactured in Iran. They come from China. Can I buy some at Walmart?
Oh! I almost forgot to mention who holds the notes on the US deficit...you know who, don't you?

Still all smoke and mirrors...makes for entertaining reading but doesn't have much to do with the Israeli reality...the people of Israel have a right to defend themselves...as I often quote in other circumstances, "in the end, we have only those rights which we can defend...only those rights!" The Garden of Eden doesn't exist...never did! There are no perfect solutions, no fairytale endings...no place on earth without evil lurking...has nothing to do with the situation at hand! Folks make decisions, both good and bad...if you choose to allow pigs in your house, it will smell like pig crap! Support terrorism and you can't complain when an Israeli missile comes through the kitchen window...you may feel you've been wronged and perhaps you have...but you'll still be scattered over the countryside.
