#1 The Israeli army assassinated two Palestinian militants in the West Bank town of Nablus on Monday and shot dead a Palestinian in Balata refugee camp on Tuesday. On Wednesday, Israeli soldiers killed two Palestinians in Jenin and Nablus.
Good start but 52 straight is still a long ways away. Good luck.

#2 Of course it's a new era of peace - for Israel! Is it just me or has anyone else noted a reduction in terror attacks in Israel since this all started? Haven't seen much in the news or the blogosphere.

#3 "The Palestinian leadership is trying to earn the international communityâs support to compel Israel to stop the military actions against the Palestinians."

The international community is already your sob sister, but the US won't be crying for you.

Dave-you betcha. Thankfully, Israel is stepping up to the plate and doing what needs to be done-helping terrorists get to hell unaccompanied.

I still say we need to erect a "wall of shame" plastered with the images of these mongrels. What better way to spend a weekend (besides eliminating their presence on Earth) than to pelt their photos with rotted fruit and spray their faces with the shameful truth about their crimes. Much better than paintball.

#4 Dave, between tunnel-crushing in Gaza, whack-a-mole with Hamas and IJ, and the continuing expansion of the security wall, things are looking up

#5 IIRC correctly, the Wall street journal sez that the second intifada has been in all aspects won by Israel (no link, saw the article translated in french by a jewish news site), and that the israeli security has dramatically improved.

#6 The Palestinian National Authority (PNA) on Wednesday accused Israel of deluding the world by saying that a new stage of peace with the Palestinians is coming while continuing its military offensives all over the Palestinian territories.

If not a "new stage of peace," most certainly a "new stage of unemployment." Israel's shutdown of the Erez industrial zone in preparation for their Gaza pullout was a perfect demonstration of the vision that Arafat and Hamas have for Palestine. Namely, a complete political and economic dead-end. Welcome to hell, ya idjits.

#7 Waddaya mean resort to whining? They've been doing that all along, in addition to murdering Jews.

Oh, I see - they're whining because they can't murder Jews.

Never mind....
