A rational, democratic nation in a struggle with thugs who have a death wish and who don't mind bringing their brethren down with them! This has been described as a "proxy war" with Iran, and that fact needs to be illuminated... I wish Israel all good fortune in a difficult time.

With that being said, I agree with my sister; the violence over there is appalling, but unfortunately will be necessary until bombs stop being thrown. <br/><br/>Israel is losing a PR battle, but the one thing that seems to be lost in the mix is that there was a 6 month cease fire agreement between Hamas and Israel; a cease fire that Israel had voted to EXTEND when it was about to expire. Hamas let it expire and then immediately began firing rockets back into Israel. Is it any wonder why the IDF (Israeli Defense Force) is reacting the way it is?
