Ashkelon Payback IDF Style - Israel bombs home of top Hamas militant
2006-11-08

GAZA (Reuters) - An Israeli warplane on Wednesday bombed and destroyed the home of a leading Hamas militant in the Gaza Strip, in a raid that caused no injuries because occupants were warned in time to leave, Hamas and security sources said. The attack on the Gaza City home of Ahmed el Jabari, second in command in Hamas' military wing, came a day after Hamas fired half a dozen rockets at Israel, including several that struck the southern Israeli city of Ashkelon, but caused no injury. The Israeli army had no immediate comment.
The IDF needs to do this every time even a single rocket is launched. Even if it falls back into Palestinian territory, they still need to trash some Hamas thug's domicile. Preferrably with everyone inside.

#4  We can develop and fabricate all kind of high-tech gadgets. The problem is that we do not have the will to use them. So they are useless, and we are perceived, rightly so, as a paper tiger.

#3  The jihadis will interpret compassion as weakness. I fear the jihadis are right.

If we persist in sending valentines to our enemies all our high-tech gadgets will not save us. This may come down to hand to hand, people.

#2  Just an inconvenience. There are a lot of really nice abandoned Jewish houses Jabari and his mama can move into. Looks like the Israelis would rather go to the grave than kill those who seek to murder them. I'm sure the Pali historians will really nice thing about those compassionate Jews. Not.
