#3 Meshaal might have to come back from ~~hiding~~ "exile" in Damascus to ~~get his ass kicked~~ give fresh orders to fight the Juice.

Not.Gonna.Happen.

Disobeying their Iranian masters' orders would indeed be significant

#4 The irony of this whole thing is that it is the Turkish method, used successfully for hundreds of years to control Arabs.

Whenever the Arabs would cut up rough, the Turks would go there, slaughter a bunch (though far less precisely), then leave. The situation would then calm down for a while before the Arabs would cut up rough again.

#6 Perhaps it's the Kzinti method...after repeatedly going out and getting killed, only the peaceful and self-restrained were left.

One can hope...

#7 Each time Israel has to go back into Gaza, they should be a little less careful in how they fight. Destroy more buildings, tear up the infrastructure more, bomb anywhere five rounds of AK-47 ammunition could be stored. About the third or fourth time, I THINK the Gaza Arabs would begin to get the message. If they don't, eventually there won't be any left.

#8 I find it pathetic that Israel's leaders, probably at our request, have adjusted their military operations so The Anointment of The One wouldn't be sullied by their unseemly efforts to defend themselves.

Again, I suspect Israel is under an Obama staff ultimatum....;<em>make it go away by the inauguration or risk future loss of military aid and assistance. Just my guess.
