About time to cut a few fingers off MB lest it becomes a full grown terrorist organization and attack Israel with its seven heads and ten horns. Hamas first then Hezbollah. Let its brothers finish off Syria. Iranian weapons are not for Syrian military but for Iranian forces in Syria. This is how Iran was able to build up Hezbollah. Hezbollah Syrian Chapter is in the works. Israel must use its head. A full blown ME war is INEVITABLE. Perhaps WW3 is also INEVITABLE. Like any war, the element of surprise is always an advantage.

just killed every known terrorist at every opportunity, hamass would be begging for peace.

doesn't anyone read the Koran before opening their mouth? According to the Koran, it is imperative to keep up a constant battle against (us) infidels. This is part of their religion. I suppose if Roni would read before he opened his mouth, he would not express a stupid opinion. Opinions are based on ignorance; facts are based on knowledge.

loose a soldier here, a citizen there /raise a generation of psychologically scarred children as a result of Hamas' (or whatever name they choose) continued attacks on our population: something that could've been stopped long time ago. Saying "Hamas not interested" is beyond embarrassing!

are inaccurate and of short range. They have as much chance of hitting an open field than a community. Israel's, or rather BARAK'S REPSONSE, of sending the IAF to focus "on open areas in Gaza, causing a lot of dust and noise, but no casualties", proves he is too much of a coward to take the necessary steps that must be taken, meaning, destroy the terrorist leaders and their infrastructure wherever and however possible. Civilians get killed too? Too bad, they don't do anything to help rid themselves of the terrorist scum within their midst.

You say "Moreover, Egypt is demanding that Hamas operate against these groups due to their links to fundamentalist terror groups based in the Sinai Peninsula." Then you also say "Hamas has no interest in resuming the fighting with Israel, as it is preoccupied with building relations with the new government in Cairo and trying to prove to the Muslim Brotherhood that it is a stable and responsible ruler. " If that is truly the case then why join in if what is important is relations with Egypt why are they joining terrorist that are giving Egypt problems. Also it does work this way if they do not want a conflict with Israel then they must stop them themselves.
