It seems Mr Levy that maybe you arent getting the simple message:

Give back our soldier and don`t do it again!

For weeks there have been rumours of the Palestinians wanting to kidnap Israelis and they have captured and killed one and captured and holding another.

The IDF can`t sit on their hands and do nothing, they needed to act swiftly and with a message. If the Palestinians dont want reprisals then they have to stop doing stupid things. They must stop terror, they must stop suicide bombings, threats, qassams, daily attacks etc. etc. etc.

The situation is this - if Israel puts down their weapons, there will be more war as the Palestinians will just attack more, if the Palestinians put down their weapons there will be peace. Pure and simple.
