#1 They need to get a 747 rigged for firefighting and drop jello mix on that area of Gaza and watch the locals go crazy from the flies and gelatine.

#2 One addled mayor who sounds as clueless as Olmert, plus "UN officials". There's a quorum of idiocy. It is literally hard to believe one's eyes when one reads what some Israelis are thinking. Here is a guy LITERALLY at the business end of Palestinian malicious violence - and he can only imagine surrender of some sort as a solution. Yikes.

#3 Moyal has been at the receiving end of kassams for over 6 years now. Moyal has been an advocate for leveling the Gaza neighborhoods the kassams launch from, has been a true leader by the mere fact that people still live in Sderot, indeed he has tried everything (type sderot in the search) and has got nowhere, but was begged to stay after threatening to resign. Just like I have eaten a -lot- of different foods I have never tried the taste of pig shit, just as Moyal is trying now. More than anything it is a reflection of the national government not doing anything and indeed threatening the citizens of sderot with retaliation if they do something like building a giant trebouchet. Moyal is tired of the BS and I don't blame him one bit because nobody else is doing anything.

~~Olm~~Eggbert you suck.

#4 Just so Moyal is prepared for the other side:

"Before Israel dies, it must be humiliated and degraded. Allah willing, before they die, they will experience humiliation and degradation ... Allah willing, we will make them lose their eyes."
Khaled Mashal, Hamas leader

#6 gotta blame the central gov. on this one , but the mayor should try the trebuchet throry before negotiating with these pieces of shit. And who by the way gave the town mayor the authority too negotiate with Hamass anyway, this would ahve too be against some Israeli law somewhere

#7
Israel holds the Hamas leadership responsible for all rockets fired from Gaza, including those launched by other militant groups.

Well, yeah. That's what happens when you're the rulers of a patch of land. If anti-Arab Israelis started launching rockets from Sderot into Gaza, and the Israelis did nothing, it would be proper to hold the Israeli government responsible.
