Tough call for Sharon ....


Not really. Believe it or not, killing terrorists works. Just look at the number of re-offenders.

#11  In other words, he is a terrorist who wants to topple the Palestinian Authority and provoke a full war with Israel.

Tough call for Sharon ....

#10  BAR,

Agreed. Here is the latest from, haaretzdaily.com.

"The man who carried out the Be'er Sheva suicide bombing was initially identified by Islamic Jihad as Ayman Za'aqiq, 25, of the village of Beit Umar, located between the West Bank cities of Bethlehem and Hebron. A statement by the group statement said he was an Islamic Jihad member."

#9  I also thought the Gaza pullout will bring peace and overwhelming counter-fire if attacked.

With the pullout, there is no excuse not to retaliate big time. If the Israelis don't, then the notion of "disengagement" was a very big mistake.

#8  Israel has many chemical plants. Napalm is easy to make (you can make it in a stainless steel kitchen sink, wearing a decent gas mask). It's time to start toasting some terrorists, not only in Israel but wherever they raise their ugly heads. All the PC bullshit needs to be flushed yesterday.

#7  I also thought the Gaza pullout will bring peace and overwhelming counter-fire if attacked. Maybe Sharon is waiting on permission from the State Dept. I will have to get some more popcorn, it got stale waiting on Sharon to act.

#6  I don't understand? I thought the Gaza withdrawal would bring "peace in our time"? [/sarcasm]

Suicide[homicide]Bomber Injures at Least 10 in Southern Israel


Selfless [saving innocent life at the certain risk of ones own] vs. Selfcentered [taking innocent life for the belief of a reward in the hereafter]

#2   two security guards had approached the bomber just before the explosion.

The two guards knowingly chose the risk to their own lives in order to protect others -- that is courage. The bomber gave up his life to murder innocents -- that is evil. It doesn't matter that he did so fearlessly. It was not bravery, it was not courage, and it is no way admirable.

#1  Pick one town in Gaza, and bomb it into dust. Then announce that the next attack of ANY kind will result in another Gaza town being ground down into powder. There's nothing left there to be concerned about, so the maximum pressure can be applied.
