Since they do, it will continue."<BR/><BR/>Yip! Just like with the school yard bully. Let him beat the crap out of you and he will do it till you graduate.<BR/><BR/>The most ridiculous two words in the universe are "disproportionate force." There's no such thing. If you just slap each other once each, that slapping will go on forever. Someone slaps you - you beat the crap out of him till he dies or surrenders. If he saps you again - kill him. <BR/><BR/>It really is that simple.Yobeeonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13067866336964665242noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-15898447372110664302008-03-04T20:10:00.000-05:002008-03-04T20:10:00.000-05:00If Israel did not put up with it, it would stop.

That Mr. Bush and Dr. Rice also call for Israel to exercise restraint is outrageous, especially in light of America's own war against jihadist terrorism. Did not the Administration's call for restraint, as well as protecting innocent civilian deaths go unmentioned here? <BR/><BR/>Wasn't it the U.S. Administration that demanded Israel curtail her defensive actions in Gaza as Rice returned to the region for more peace negotiations?steve kleinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01909283816016502418noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-69832584515933463302008-03-04T13:26:00.000-05:002008-03-04T13:26:00.000-05:00Yep.

That's exactly what the international community is asking Israel to do--turn the other cheek and be a whiping boy until the Palestinians decide to become civilized.<BR/><BR/>It's a double standard. You don't win a war with proportionate response to aggression.<BR/><BR/>Notice that there's no one word of condemnation against Hamas. Not a peep.Keli Atahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05089132216830000713noreply@blogger.com
