Collateral damage is to some extent inevitable in war, but the

Israel is fighting its war on terror about the same way the US lost our
own; bomb and shoot anything that moves and if someone gets hit rely on
the mainstream media to dutifully report that one more dangerous
terrorist has been eliminated.

 
The difference is that they are fighting for their survival, against
barbarian creeps who want them all dead.

Retreat into the sea?

Isn't retreat into the sea what the Gazan's are facing now? Where the

Nobody wants the gazan Palestinians. Not Jordan, not Egypt, nobody.

Israel would be a peaceful ally and a serious asset to that part of
the world, but the shiites want the Jews all dead.

I'm sorry, when a nation is attacked and loses just under 2,000 people,
and then starts a conflict that kills 40,000 or more and shows no sign
of ending I have to ask who are the terrorists. You may recall hearing
of attacks by the invading party in WW2 where a town would be executed
for the act of a band of fighters...All they both are doing is setting
up the next generation of terrorists on both sides.

Israel is sending a message: we value our citizens, and not all of
those citizens are Jews.

There are few terrorists on the Israeli side.

What ever happened to Truth and Reconciliation? It worked in South
Africa and Northern Ireland. Time to get it going in Israel and Gaza
before the fools turn the conflagration nuclear.

The islamic crazies won't have it. They must kill the Jews and
islamize Israel. The Koran demands it.

This is a battle for civilization, the path from The Ten Commandments
through the Enlightment and the Constitution and universal human
rights.
