| It is a bad situation for the residents there can be no exagerating the awful circumstances that thsy have to live under. But I feel that to rush in with a ground offensive is not the right thing to do simply because this is precisely what the Pals want. Firstly, self control and measured reaction must be the way to deal with this. Build defences against the rockets and this means deep shelters and also the use of arial defences such as barrage balloons which has not been tried. Secondly like for like in reciprocal action against Hamas. There is much criticism of Olmert but to react in a wild and uncontolled manner will lead Israel into waters that may have dangerous currents that will drag it into deeper conflict and much greater loss of life. |
