but in this case I have to agree. Something has to jolt these murderers and death cult members to such a degree that they understand that peace is the only possible compromise besides death. Then, and only then will your statement . . .

Such parents are peeved now that their children may die in their rocket launcher laden homes instead of a Pizza Hut with scores of young Israelis that just ordered pepperoni and extra cheese.

be false.
Kill them until they sue for peace - or as one famous American once wrote, “Sir, No terms are acceptable, except unconditional surrender.” If innocents are killed - then let God straighten it out.

and immoral, not to mention ineffectual.

In my opinion.

Think about the barber. There aren’t enough “of this kind,” according to the cockiest crow on the internet? You are pulling that out of thin air. You have no idea how many there are, and you are not the arbiter of how many are “enough.” Your willingness to blow however many barbers there may be to smithereens on a hunch is disgusting.

Israel is within its rights to destroy Hamas. This should incentivize a better and more responsible choice in coming elections, as more Barbers will see the wisdom in moderation. But let the Barbers be. WE NEED THEM, to speak nothing of the moral obligation of sparing innocents whenever at all possible.

To think that the US and Israel can blow its problems away with enough bombs is so ridiculous to anyone who has actually been to the area (I can say without question that Gamecock has not). There are different schools of thought among the Palestinians and other Arab nations. We, both the US and Israel, need to prove that any friend of modernity, moderation, and diplomacy in the area is a friend of ours. You do not do that by blowing them up.

Think of how easily you could write this same thing on the other side, like Tano said, on the other blog DeVine posted this on. Just more bombs, just more death, just more blood, and the Israeli mind will be focused. That has been the strategy for many a bloody feud; let’s grow up, shall we?

DeVine only seems to see nails with his giant hammer. Nothing personal, that’s just my opinion. I usually don’t comment, but to ascribe these horrendous motivations to all Palestinians like a blanket is personally offensive to me, and all the more outrageous because it so certainly comes from ignorance.

but Petraeus taught us we need to win the hearts and minds, and then kill those we can’t win over. No one want’s a death cult on their doorstep. The Israilis deserve better, so do the 1 million Muslims living in Israel.

We know the West can destroy any place on this earth if it wants to. but the long term solution in Palestine, if there will be one, is for the Palestinians to give up the death cult and get on with their lives. I am sure many have no desire to get on with their lives, they are so full of hate and so lacking in skills. If they must be taken out in a military fashion, than that is the way it goes.

If anyone thinks I am a friend of these savages because of previous posts, they are sadly mistaken. I would guess the average Palestinian Joe just wants to live his life, but it is time he rises up and takes down Hamas. The only end to Hamas will be from the inside. The Israelis will reduce Hamas and give an opening. If the average joe joins the death cult, then he is an enemy, easily in the range of the IDF.

God Bless the IDF and their mission to fight back the darkness.

…would involve lots and lots of bulldozers….all heading straight to the sea….

…..but that would be littering…

….back to the old drawing board, oh well……….

…is fighting one half-heartedly or leaving it unfinished. All that does is assure more lives on both sides will be lost.

“Concentrate the Palestinian mind.

Bomb the hell out of them.”

They are not a conventional military force with conventional military objectives. You can’t scare them, except by threatening to end the war. They can’t be bullied, reasoned with, or bought. Indiscriminate bombing of Palestine is not going to accomplish anything. Peace will only come about in the Middle East when the Palestinians get sick of Hamas, and that won’t happen if Israel’s MO is to carpet bomb the place every once in a while.

They’ve split Gaza in two. They control the coast presumably. If they would take control along the border with Egypt and spend time killing each and every tunnel there, then they’ve killed all the military resupply lines. They can let in whatever humanitarian aid they choose and choke everything else off without engaging in house to house fighting.

So much for all that Hamas promised the people if that happens. Israel can sit back and reduce its own casualties as well as avoid “civilian” casualties while the people get sick of Hamas looking entirely powerless to provide any basic services at all.

I’m especially disgusted by the MSM’s blatant and outright bias towards Palestine.

one moment

Sometimes, GC’s style of writing is too unconventional to an ordinary reader like me.

Wrt the meat of the diary: The craziness of the Palestinians (particularly Hamas) is next to none. Such craziness is unfortunately “deadly”.

My question; Are the MSM just setting the stage for Immanuel (in behalf of his Big Boss O) to make a redux of his only (sham) achievement under the former Clinton Administration, i.e., a globally-televised and overrated handshake between Israel and Palestine (this time, Hamas) at the WH?

do realize (I hope) that even though Hamas didn’t receive unanimous support (though they did receive a majority) in the most recent elections, their next closest (and as far as I know, only) competition, Fatah, was just as murderously anti-Israeli as Hamas?

So there are really very, very few barbers. Mostly Pizza Hut bombers.
