Don't make us do it again." Repeat as necessary, until they reach the point that when Hamas sets up a launcher in someone's backyard, the neighbors' response is "Oh, f#@k! Kill them, quick, before they bring the Israelis down on us!"<br /><br />Until Israel is willing to do that, the rocket attacks will continue, as they have for years already.

Never mind that newspapers such as the <i>Daily Mail</i> win journalism awards, to him if it is critical of President Obama it's a "UK tabloid." To his credit, he never actually watched Fox News before I called him on it several years ago, and my linking of UK newspapers only was of interest to him when I pointed out that the <i>Guardian</i> was rabidly left-wing; that's the only one he doesn't consider a "tabloid."Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11402651457453813639noreply@blogger.com
