When will Israel fight back against the Islamic terrorists who bombard southern Israel with rockets?

This morning (Wednesday), twenty rockets were fired into the western Negev desert, ironically on the day of the first meeting between Israel and Fatah since Annapolis.

AND WE ARE OK WITH THAT?

Prime Minister Ehud Nero is fiddling Sedrot is burning. Yesterday Barak said that the rocket fire was at an acceptable level.

No, Ehud, the only acceptable level of rocket fire is ZERO..Nothing... Nada... Bupkus.

SHUT OFF ALL OF THEIR POWER AND GET THE IDF IN THERE. I am not talking about a limited activity either. The first job of a government is to protect its citizens---you ain't doing your job!

Sderot Mayor Eli Moyal responded to the barrage of rockets on his city Wednesday morning by announcing his resignation in a live prime-time interview on public Voice of Israel radio. "I don't want to be around when a rocket hits a kindergarten and kills 20 children," he said with great emotion. "I have been losing sleep over such a scenario for years."

IDF will never win militarily in the Gaza strip... all israel can do with the IDF is besiege that little plot of land. The answer is in supporting Fatah, and a popular uprising in Gaza against the HAMAS. You can kill HAMAS and all its leaders, but no governing body in Palestine will ever be legitimate enough, unless that body was forged from the blood of Palestinians, by and for the Palestinians. Oh... and the missiles couldn't hit the moon with HAMAS behind the launch button... Israelis need not worry.

According to the defence minister, the time is drawing near when Israel will finally deal with those Muslim terrorists in Gaza.

Ultranational is so right. Just as Arab countries have governments that espouse peace, but at the same time have groups that attack Israel that the government 'just can't' control - so Israel should have groups that the government 'can't control'. This is the only thing that the Palestinian and Arab terrorists will understand. Sometimes you have to fight fire with fire.

Why the hell should innocent Israelis in Sderot keep dying because Israel is trying to be 'fair' and save the lives of Palestinian civilians by not hitting back 'too hard'?

Why should the Israeli government do MORE to protect Palestinian civilians than the Palestinian official reps, Hamas?

I agree with Ultranational, totally.

EDIT - Ultranational, I hear ya :) I honestly think that if various groups of Israeli commandos were to retaliate in kind, the Palestinian terrorists might just think twice. Besides, nothing else works against them!!

The Israeli-Palestinian conflict is one of the world’s major sources of instability. Americans are directly connected to this conflict, and increasingly imperiled by its devastation.

It is the goal of If Americans Knew to provide full and accurate information on this critical issue, and on our power – and duty – to bring a resolution.

I don't know. Many Israelis think it is overdue, but Olmert and America seem to feel that the current path is one that will lead to peace. Fatah claims that any attack on Gaza would end the peace talks, so it's really anyone's guess.

When the people overthrow the puppet Hellenist government.

Israel should be matching rocket for rocket.

Israel has been firing back - the issue is they try to do it without killing non-combatants which makes in hard because the thugs put their weapons in areas were children play, school, people's homes, etc.... Israeli has as it always has been fighting the most humanitarian counter-insurgency in history. It isn't easy - but then again when is being a Jew easy right?

Good Luck!!!

I believe Israel fights back already. However, I think that they don't fight back as they're supposed to. They should increase the attacks.

well most of em are too scared after that war with hezbollah last year, so i guess thats the reason
