I know from a reliable Israeli source that Sharon was called AriK by his comrades in the Army. When you talked of Ari's seeing the light I first thought you were talking about Aris Katzaris and thought it is one of those rare days where pigs fly, wolves lie along sheep and water becomes wine.

#4 Let me get this straight - the terrorists have told Israel that they don't want to be killed, but Israel is *still* killing them? No wonder Israel is a pariah state!

#6 A weekend barrage of rockets into Israel from Gaza...

Apparently I misunderstood the meaning of "cease-fire". Hamas is allowed to shoot, but Jooos are not allowed to retaliate. Gotcha.

#7 Chris, it was the whole "gotcha" strategy. Hamas fired rockets, THEN declared a ceasfire. When Israel responded, they could cry that the jooooos were being bad and the media had a proper anti-israel/jew slant to the story.

The only problem with the response by Israel is that the journalists are not being killed.

#8 actually the Israelis only killed an IJ leader so far, NOT a Hamas leader. it punishes IJ for taking the lead lately in attacks, and also serves as a warning to Hamas and of ocurse to Abbas (not that hed be targeted, but more Israeli attacks weaken him)

IIUC the Israelis are hinting they will kill a whole bunch of Hamas leaders. If i read it correctly, the dovish editora of Haaretz, are asking for restraint - as in dont kill TOO MANY Hamas leaders, keep it proportionate.

Dont you wish we had doves like that ;)

#9 I don't s'pose any of those missiles might find their way to Damascus?

#10 Hamas leader Mahmoud Zahhar needs to receive a Hellfire or one of the newly imported JDAMs. That will send a message. No tit for tat. A simple message that all orgainzations suffer when one starts lobbing things over the border.

#11 JFM, wolves are perfectly willing to lie down with lambs. Its the troublemaking lambs that balk.
