Jerusalem update Report

[Christina]

While in Turkey this past week making arrangements for future events and looking for the Gullet, all hell broke loose here in Israel with the IDF making a limited ground operation into Gaza. We keep hearing that the war has begun, well what do they call 7 years of bombardment of Islamic Palestinian rockets on our Jewish civilians? Think about that, what other country would sit still because the President of the US ask them to and allow their civilian populations to be killed and wounded for 7 years. This same act of stupid obedience to the US President started in 1991 when 39 Iraqi missiles showered down on Tel-Aviv and Israel was told not to respond by President Bush. As I am sure you have heard that every time Bush or Rice comes to this area and sides with the Moslems in this insane war against their only friend and democracy in the Middle East terrible things happen in the USA we now can only wait and observe.Once again we hear Bush is sending Rice here in order to stop this “terrible” Israeli invasion of Gaza and to create another cease fire that the Moslems call a Hudna (meaning a time-out to regroup and rebuild forces). Not once in that 7 years has the so-called “Palestinians” been condemned by the UN or charged with war crimes for targeting civilian populations. But every time we (Israel) go after these Islamic Terrorists in self defense we are told we are doing a terrible wrong and should not defend ourselves, or that we are using disproportionate force. Well maybe they have something there possibly we should send a missile into there populations every time they send us one, that would be around 40 to 100 per day. It certainly wouldn’t take many days for them to come to the conclusion that this is a very bad deal for them. In the so-called West Bank (Judea and Samaria) the “Palestinians” are also protesting. Near our home we found that it is now dangerous for us to drive from our Moshave to Jerusalem for fear of being stoned or much worse as we have to drive through the so-called “Palestinian” territory. What is sad is that Hamas doesn’t care how many Arabs get killed in Gaza in fact they want the IDF to kill a large number in order to force the world to further condemn Israel. We are talking about Islamic insanity here and human life means little to nothing to these bloodthirsty murderers, they wrap bombs around their children to kill you. They only care about their Jihad and if you think this Jihad in Israel is somehow separated from the other Islamic wars raging around the globe think again, they are all tied together for this is a Global Jihad and you are on their list. As for what is going to happen here in Israel concerning Hamas, sooner or later (hopefully sooner) the IDF will have to go back into Gaza in full force and destroy Hamas, Israel will have to get very strong with Egypt (Against Bush’s will) and tell them they must stop the shipments of arms into Gaza across the Egyptian border. But in the mean time we are watching Hezbollah prepare for another round in the northern part of the county and this time they have longer range missiles that can reach much further into Israel thanks to Russia and Iran, and Syria seems to preparing to join in the next round as well. The bottom line is Israel will have to make some very hard decisions and soon or if they wait to long it could be too late.
