The Six Week War

The New York Post explains that Israel will need at least six weeks to clean up the West Bank because they will not use the full force of their military and face the possibility of many civilian casualties by bombing their terrorist neighbors straight to hell. At some point I think that they may have to reconsider this approach. It is not trained men with Kalishnikovs who are blowing up Israeli cafes and citizens. Nor is it even Israeli Denfense Forces who are primarily being targeted by the terrorists; it is the Israeli citizenry. An eye for an eye. Blow Jenin off the map. It will be one less disputed area to worry about.

There is also an interesting comment in the story that Yasser himself has instructed his men not to leave the Church of the Nativity. Good thinking on his part: this will surely help rally some of the traditionally Christian nations of the world to his side.
