1. This Hamas' guy or Abbas' guy?
Important distinction since Abbas' guy is the one who they agreed would go to stuff like the Arab League foreign ministers' meeting under Abbas' authority.

4. What can 'we' do to stop this madness? Why would anyone
in their right mind listen to 'us'? We've been so successful at all the other recent efforts we've undertaken-not!

13. Cut the $$$$$$s
The United States could tell Israel that ALL economic aid and military aid is going to be cut tomorrow unless they agree to a negotiated cease fire -- the bombing would stop pretty fast.

Because the problem is that the U.S. has never held Israel's feet to the fire to make peace with the Palestinians.

15. I fear you are correct

I am beginning to wonder about the significance of the pig feast and the many references to the pig. Israel is bombing out the offices of two elected governments. They have captured the elected leaders of the Palestinians.

Three Lebanese soldiers have just been killed by Israeli air strikes.

I smell the pigs, Bush, Rummy and Condi. The timing with the G8 summit and the just wait response to Putin makes me very, very nervous.
Edit - add.

10. I think they're just churning up the rubble froma previous bombing.
The U.S. will just give them more money to buy more.

5. Again? They did it 4 days ago
GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip — A bomb dropped by an Israeli warplane destroyed the Palestinian Foreign Ministry building in Gaza City early Thursday, witnesses said.

The bomb collapsed the building and caused widespread destruction in the area. The Palestinian foreign minister is Hamas leader Mahmoud Zahar.
