I'm surprised this topic has not come up... so the stinking Palestinians kidnap and murder an 18 year old boy. They also kidnap an 18 year old Israeli soldier. Now the Al Axsa brigade of Palestinian terrorists is claiming to have fired a missile into southern Israel with a biological, chemical load on it ( as yet unconfirmed by Israel ). Syria has shot at an Israeli jet. Now Israel is responding by steamrolling through Gaza . They have effectively shut down the Palestinian government by apprehending virtually the entire cabinet. Is this it? I don't know how the US has kept Israel reigned in this long... why not use their might to our advantage and clean out that entire rats nest called the mid east? Syria is sitting right in the middle.
While I would like to see them do just that, clean out the rats nest. I don't know what would happen in todays climate if they tried to do that.
If you have been reading my writings from time to time, I have said just that. I feel certain that it is in "the works" some where down range. Israel will not discuss military operations in advance which is smart. I have cousins visiting there the past 3 weeks ( due home Tuesday) and life goes on in this tiny country normally. jif
re: clean out the rat nests Thats a lot of rats... Nothing will change in Muslim cultures until we can bring them into the 17th Century at least...
