  1. I think the real danger to Israel is; if Iran gets nukes or a strong ally with nukes. There are about 9,000,000 izzy and perhaps another 9.000,000 Jewish folk world wide against perhaps 2000.000.000 Islamic people. True not all on either side want to fight, but numbers count in war. The word is that Israel has about 200 atomic weapons and that keeps the Islamic mostly at bay. But is Iran gets the bomb, that makes MAD come into play and Israel simply cannot have that.

  2. The IDF has a problem that is very difficult..

    Israel knows that it must keep the good opinion of the WEST to survive; They will not keep that if they kill thousands of women and children. by air and arty.  So they need to have as many women and children leave Gaza as possible. Mass use of air and arty.is the preferred way to take a city, you lose less of your people, yet  that makes tens of thousands of dead women and kids and that does not play well on TV. Yet, if they send  ground troops into Gaza to go house by house to limit civilian dead, as people dont leave, and  also go into tunnels they will lose perhaps several thousands of troops.That is not something the IDF wants to do nor do they have the numbers to accept huge loses.  As I said, they have a problem

    I think it WRONG for any American elected official to wear the uniform of a foreign state in the halls of Congress. I wont vote for such. If you join a foreign army ,you so far as I know, take an oath to that nation. Now if the Congressman wants to resign his American office and go to fight for Israel, God bless him. But he cannot do both.

    I got the tunnel rat job becouse I was smaller and it is that or walk dikes and I used to fall off dikes   a lot. Tunnel ratting was better/...sort of like the subway at rushhour.

  5. Gaza part ll

    If you have to fight block to block and the people are trapped, Egypt just closed the gates into Egypt, you may invoke in the foe the "we have nothing to lose, may as well take as many of the foe as we can with us' MINDSET. As an old tunnel rat, I know tunnels are not fun.If you hope to save your hostages, You cannot just toss a charge in the tunnel or gas it, you must send men down into the tunnel. SO BETWEEN THAT AND URBAN Fighting You may have loses in the thousands. Safer to bomb from the air and hope to stir up a peoples revoke and HOPE the Pals kill Hamas for you,

  6. Well if a carrier is hit with a silkworm, I hope we learn for sure who lunched it. Not that I love Iran, I recall the hostages, but if would not break the Izzy's hearts if we bombed Iran back to the Stonehenge.(and took the losses..Yep I am a distrustful  sort) PS  I also recall the "Liberty"

  7. This was on Fox this morning the Izzy found a group of beheaded babies at a kibbutz  Final solution of the Gaza question???  As to Iran. I read that the IDFAF has been trying to get us to do that. They dont have the planes and dont want to take the loses.

     

    I say Good luck to them//Unless congress declares it ..it is not our war and not our problem
