Watching video cameras of Gaza and things look pretty calm. My guess is that the tanks will withdraw in a few hours.

"...CLARKSBURG, W.Va. (WBOY) — Olympic gold medalist and West Virginia native Mary Lou Retton is in an Intensive Care Unit and “fighting for her life” as she battles pneumonia.

According to a *spotfund set up by her daughter, McKenna Kelley, Retton has been in the ICU for “over a week now” and has not been able to breathe on her own. Kelley said that out of respect for her mother’s privacy, she would not disclose any more details, but she did say that Retton is uninsured.

Now that both sides have succeeded in killing a zillion civilians maybe this thing can wind down. Both sides can claim a glorious victory.

Time for urban warfare. They want to end Hamas.

Don't think either side has the stomach for that.

Hide your weapons, set your booby traps, pass out video cameras to catch the war crimes, and melt away for fight another day.

I think the Palestinians were thinking that the Iranians or Hezbollah or Egypt or Lebanon would come to their aid.

Mary Lou probably won't make it. That's damn sad too. We should be ashamed.

The Israelis should just blockade Gaza so no shipments of food, medical supplies or weapons can get in, bomb the infrastructure to dust, cut the utilities and keeping bombing until they starve to death and die of disease. Then minimal  Israeli lives have to be risked to eliminate the terrorists.

Hopefully they will. That will give the US sufficient pretext to destroy their military.  I suspect that US aircraft carrier has been sent for that purpose.

Conceivably, the US could neutralize the militaries of every Muslim nation in the region while Israel lays waste to terrorist enclaves and retakes Gaza and West Bank.

What America’s liberal champions willfully fail to recognize is that their darling Palestinians would gleefully slash their throats given the opportunity.
