What lies? Missiles have rained down upon Israeli civilians for the last five days -- has anyone convened an emergency session of the Security Council? No. Has any country other than the United States condemned the attacks? No. On the other hand, all of Europe has condemned Israel's conduct -- which was entirely in the interests of self-defense. Don't the children of Sderot, Ashkelon, Ashdod and Be'ersheva matter, too? I repeat -- what lies? Please elaborate, if you wish to ever again be taken seriously on this forum.

Eye for an eye, tooth for a tooth is a religious imperative. We are not in the habit of turning the other cheek; certainly not since the gas chambers. Sorry.

What the hell are you babbling about? Read Mark Twain's "Innocents Abroad," particularly the chapter about his visit to Palestine. Simply put -- there were no orchards or olive groves or ANYTHING in Palestine, until the Jews brought them. There were no farms. There were Bedouins who lived in squalor in tents and wandered around. Not until the Jews of the First and Second Aliyot came and cleared the malaria-ridden swamps in the north and pushed back the desert in the south did the Arabs come and then, they only came to plunder and pillage. "Draconian military rule?" Are you completely crazy, or just on drugs? What do you imagine the American response would be to six wars and seven decades of unremitting terror? Hmm? What? You are an imbecile. You are also completely ignorant of history, so I very strongly recommend that you learn some before you participate in this forum. (It will keep you from embarrassing yourself.)

1. "Flatten" Gaza. 2. "Vaporize" Iran 3. "Nuke" Turkey 4. "Annex" Sinai Please tell me what you drink, I want the same.

Mr's Sarah B. Read well my message, please. I repeat: Israel must react strongly. Nothing to do with "giving another cheek". You know I am a friend of yours, with all my heart. I said, only, about moderation. I know Jewish History and Jewish good principles. I understand your revolt and I admire you very much, although we have little differences of opinion. Shalom.

I don't recall that Britain was occupying any part of Germany. I don't recall that Britain had built a wall around Germany or kept the German people in the world;s largest out door prison, I don't recall that almost every day for years Britain was killing German civilians. There is no comparison. The article is a joke. And Sarah B seems to be an advocate of genocide. I don;t see much difference between Sarah B and the Germans.

Lord knows we all acknowledge the courage of the Israeli homefront, but the comparison with the dire situation of Great Britain in 1940 is absoltely rediculous. The author seems to have forgotten that Britain 1940 faced the Nazi onslaught totally ALONE . France had fallen as had the rest of Europe, the USA was nuetral and indifferent, the Soviet Union was still in a non agression pact with Germany and the Brits had nothing but their own guts and honour to sustain them. So don't overstate our case, which is a good one anyway.

Israel is missing the opportunity to destroy Hezbollah and Hamas now.
