#1 A good point for Second Amendment.

#2 Im assuming the counselors were in fact reservists, as are almost all Israeli males up to age 45 (and unmarried females up to 28 or so).

IE the second amendment as actually written. Well regulated and all that.

#3 If the dead terrorists were Jerusalemites, expel the entire family. Pay them double the value of the property, and keep all housekeys. As a kindness, let them choose between the West Bank and the Gaza Strip. Living in Israel is a privilege, now that there is a Palestinian homeland, not a right.

/wishful thinking, so long as Olmert occupies the Prime Minister's office.

#4 Hamas disputs Al Aksa's claim. Hamas wants credit for it.

#6 Heh ? Olmert, genius ?
Time will tell, and this looks like the beginning of the end. The tactical options left to the Jews now is truely a short list. They must either bend over and take it or react with ever increasing levels of retaliation until they force an end to the attacks. We have just seen the end of a period of paleo regrouping. Will 2008 be as 'peaceful' as 2007 ? Doubt it.

#7 "expel the entire family."

Wont happen under Bibi either. Israel as a general rule, despite what the commies would tell you, does NOT do collective punishment. Blowing up houses is done in the territories, where its an application of old British rules under the mandate. And even when houses are blown up, the right to come back and build again is not denied.

#8 anyway, from the geography, sounds more like theyre from the West Bank.

#9 A counselor realized they were terrorists, drew his personal firearm and opened fire. Another grabbed the fake gun from one of the terrorists, wrestled him to the floor, while the first counselor shot him dead.

VT, take note.
