#1 Once again, they choose between doing nothing and trying to keep the status quo. It is obvious that they have no concept of "winning", by creating a situation that is "win-win" for Israel: either the Paleos quit attacking, or they are forced out of the Gaza Strip entirely.

This would be an excellent opportunity to Israel to occupy, clear, and build new wall around an "exclusion zone" adjacent to the existing wall, to make it a no-man's land occupied by no one. Anyone who enters will be shot on sight.

The next attack, enlarge the exclusion zone. And enlarge it again and again and again. Until either they stop with the attacks, or the entire Gaza Strip is an exclusion zone, with no one living there. Empty and peaceful.

#2 They really need a no confidence vote.

#3 If the Israelis cannot see the threat and act what hope for the rest of us. At this point the only hope we have lies in the incompetence of the enemy.

#4 If I was in charge of Israeli military I would nix such a plan also. A invasion of Gaza will require balls BIG BALLS of a leader that can stand up to the UN and the world pansies at least long enough for the military to do thier thing. Ohh and and not to mention it takes leadership willing to actually make a decision.
