Israeli Tactics

I am dismayed by the actions taken by the Israeli Army in dealing with the recent mosque standoff.

Israel Opens Fire During Mosque Standoff

The ideal solution to me is obvious. Once the militants refused to surrender, Israel should have brought in the fighter jets and bombed this mosque to smithereens. Then this entire episode would not have happened.

In my opinion, any supposed place of worship that knowingly offers sanctuary to people who have tried to take the lives of innocents, as in the case of these militants that retreated into the mosque after firing rockets into Israel, forfeits the support of God and ceases to be holy.

And I like how Ismail Haniya, the Palestinian Prime Minister, has called upon the international community to take note of this incident. Wait a minute, isn't he from the Hamas Party, a recognized terrorist organization that openly supports the destruction of Israel and millions of its people based solely on their Jewish religion? Right ... here's a guy with a lot of credibility who we should take seriously!

When the Palestinians stop electing terrorists and using places of worship to cover those that murder, then maybe they'll have the credibility to threaten Israeli actions. And let's not forget, these women were heading to the mosque in order to aid the militants' escape and provide cover for them so that they could fire at Israeli troops without being fired at. Hardly a Jallianwala Bagh ...
