Also, raising issues like EU "comming out against Israel" (really??) or Phil Weiss writing about international Zionist conspiracy (really??) or Yossi BMI (????) is rather pitiful.

And, for that matter, stop being a cowardly bully and write under your own damn name? What is it, are you afraid to have your hateful piffle attached to you? Caden, why won’t you answer the facts?

In other words not exactly earth shaking. Or you knowing exactly what American Jews are doing to manipulate the country to their evil designs.

I find it hard to believe that it is conceived as pointless, and what difference does it make at the end of the day? In either case it is unacceptable, and in either case it is beneath what a glorious military should aim for. Iran, the country of Kings of Kings, is clearly a match for most demanding ambitions. Just very recently top generals announced that they are ready for any mission in West Bank, Gaza and Iran. Just look how modest the statement would sound without Iran. Caden,

You Phil, and the rest of the merry band. But if Israel is practicing ethnic cleansing they really suck at it. Perhaps they should take lessons from the Moslems, who are the true experts.

The main military activity seems to be in the West Bank, mostly in area C where there seems to be a strategic plan for every village how to harass it. Cutting trees, demolishing homes and sheds, kicking sheep, and beating up people now and then is the daily staple. Some people think that this is a part of a large long term strategic plan of ethnic cleansing, and some dispute that. In either case, it is not a glorious pursuit. Hence the talk of blood and glory, a large attack that would show IDF to be something more than the most competent village bullies in the world.
