Its clear that the entire Invasion was Planned weeks in Advance!
Its also clear that the kidnapped Israeli soldier was simply an Excuse to Launch the Invasion.
This Israeli invasion of the Gaza Strip is, very simply, aimed at Destroying the Palestinians, Whatever Lives, Institutions and/or Government and Security they have left.
How else would you explain that 22 Palestinians were killed just 2 Days ago and since then, Another 32 Palestinians have been killed and Counting!!???
All the while Israel using American made Weapons to do what its doing does not help Americas image in the Middle East.
Its the Main reason why the Palestinians dislike the US!
And also, Bush stating that "Israel has a right to defend itself" does not help improve America's image!!
Yes, Ofcourse Israel Does have a Right to Defend Itself!!
But NOT in the way its doing it!!! This Not the way!!
This simply makes a Vicious Cycle of Violence keep on going!!
What do You think of this?? Your Opinions?

To the people blaming the Hamas.
Hamas had declared an open ended cease fire and truce and had been abiding by it for over a year!!
Israel, on the other hand had Not!! Killing Palestinians was still going on and the Hamas did nothing.
They ended their ceasefire after Israel massacred all 7 members of a little girls family picnicing on a Gaza Beach!!! As in, her Entire family!!
As for the kidnapped Israeli soldier.
Hey guess what!!!
Israel has thousands of Palestinians rotting in its jail cells, Including Men, Women and Children!!!
Also, Israel uses Kids as Human Shields when launching attacks.
This was all over the news a while back including Ha'aretz (Israeli newspaper), Jerusalem Post (Israeli newspaper), BBC, Guardian and others!

Since the real violence began in the year 2000 after Ariel Sharon entered the Al Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem (One of the Holiest sites for Moslems), over 3000 Palestinians have been killed and alot less than 500 Israelis.
This is not counting the Tens of Thousands of Palestinans Injured and the Hundreds of Thousands left homeless.
Also, what the Bible says should have Nothing to do with Todays world!!!
You don't just condone taking land based on what some religious book says which most people in the world dont even believe in!
Thats called Craziness, Ridiculous, Fanatical and Extremist!

I think that Israel has become the Spartans of the modern world. For over 2000 years the Jews have been persecuted and nearly eradicated from the face of the Earth. The Jewish people have made it very clear the rest of the world " Don't F*** with us anymore!" They will destroy anyone and everything for one simple idea, self preservation.
Hey, I am not even a Jew, but I respect them as a people. Any group that has gone through what they have over the course of history, and are still around, deserve some respect.
Note to the Palestinians out there, stop messing with the Jews, you will lose. History doesn't lie.( unless your George Bush and you right your own)

Of course Israel had been making military plans for years; it would have been utterly irresponsible to not do so. But the kidnapping was, both morally and under international law, a casus belli. Israel has now decided -- quite legitimately -- that Hamas and Hizbollah are nuisances that can no longer be tolerated, and they will be destroyed. Furthermore, the US will supply any assistance needed to do so. It is too bad that the Palestinians do not like this: the US would prefer to be liked. But neither the US nor Israel will indefinitely tolerate wanton killings of innocent women and children.

Watching the actions of the Israeli government over the years they sit back and take some stuff for a couple of weeks and then BAM! They come down hard and use the same argument that they are using this time. They sort of think that we the people of the world will take their side as many do, but they do come down very hard for weeks before they relent usually at the request of the US. Now they look like a benevolent bully and instead of crushing the young rascals head into the ground and finish him off they extend a hand and pull up his broken and torn limbs and say, " let's talk peace", I have seen it all before and it just keeps happening like a bad dream. I can't believe that they get away with it, especially using the same argument, " just protecting our border".

I think the there are rogue elements in the Palestinians organization that feel that they will not be satisfied until the destruction of Israel. Hamus or Hezbollah or whoever are nothing but terrorists or thugs who love killing and use religion as an excuse, after all didn't Hezbollah leader Sheik Hassan Nasrallah stated " We love martyrdom", basically saying yeah killings ok I get redeemed by martyrdom.

This was not so much planned in davace as it was was ready to go in case of need. Every country has plans on how to deal with enemy entities in case violence erupts. The Palestinians have brought this upon themselves. Of course they are being killed -- they have mercilessly placed their weapons and terrorists among the innocent - forcing Israel to strike these areas. Israel does its best to minimize casualties -- but its first and foremost concern has to be its own citizens - releasing their soldier and preventing future Kassam attacks which threatens tens of thousands of Israeli lives.

you are crazy! this was not planned by Israel at all. Hamas and friends planned and executed the plan and kidnapped the Israeli colonel thinking that they could have suddendly changed the tables around onto Israel. But Israel is not such an easy mark, so I hope Israel teaches those dumb Hamas jokers a lesson again....and like the guy said above...yeah they will fight forever!

I don't think Isreal encouraged Hamas to kidnap Isreali soldiers and as far as hiding behind civilians, hamas has always done this. Hamas is gonna find them selves in the Shiite now. The civilians are being told to get out of town and the noose is tightening. If you have hamas friends , you better send them an email telling them you love them. It may be the last email they get.
Don't poke the bull unless you wanna get gored.

Clearly this was planned weeks in advance. Why? Because Palestinians have been firing rockets from Gaza into Israel for years.
A good example of this is:
What would the USA do if a significant portion of the citizens of Rhode Island suddenly began launching rockets from their border into Massachusetts and New York? Do you think this country would sit there and _NOT_ fight back?
Pull your head out of your ***.
