'Press Hamas to stop Kassams'
2008-02-18
UN Undersecretary of Humanitarian Affairs John Holmes advocated pressuring the leaders of Hamas to halt the rocket fire at Sderot, during a visit to town on Sunday.
Pressure on the neck works well, I'm told ...
Holmes condemned the Kassam fire, saying the real victims were the civilians, and that this was a violation of all principles of human rights. "We condemn absolutely the firing of these rockets. There's no justification for it. They are indiscriminate, there's no military target," he told The Associated Press. However, he said the only way to solve the problem was through a peace agreement between Israel and the Palestinians.

#7  Hey, I'm sure the Russians would sell them a few of their version of the MRLS, those spiffy neat ones mounted on trucks and made with cutting edge 1940's tech. Course, it's still better than what the gits are firing at them.

#6  "Somebody" ought to drop about a million bucks in Sderot's lap so they can go out and buy their own missles. Big, accurate ones. And when they start blasting away at towns in Gaza, Olmert and Barack can just throw up their hands and say, "The crazy bastards! We just can't stop them!"

A bit of Snark, "Only during his visit?"

#3  Ham-Ass better watch out or they might get the dreaded strongly worded letter.

How can you have a peace agreement when one side refuses to abide by any of its obligations?

I think what he really means is that the way to solve the problem is for Israel to surrender and its men to line up along a long pit for beheading while their women and children watch. The women and childen of course to be raped later.

Isn't that the Islamic Tradition?
