Sharon is "bloodthirsty"?

Because he is sending troops into urban areas to actually eliminate the terrorists? At least his forces are finding them...With all our sophisticated military toys...we can't seem to find that many Al Qaeda leaders...

Didn't Bush say we were doing the same thing in Afghanistan?
Pray tell, what makes this different? I thought a terrorist was a terrorist. I guess we now have good ones...and bad ones.

As to a massacre in Jennin...just because the Palestinians claim that it took place? Has anyone offered any proof? A single photograph of all these bodies? Or do the Palestinians claim that the people that were rounded up...and had rifles in their hands...were massacred. Have some civilians been killed...of course. War is hell. Reality is that the Isreali's wouldn't be there if terrorist bombings of civilians had not taken place with regularity. When a Palestinian walks into a cafe and detonates himself...and kills 20-30 people...thats not a massacre? The bottom line is all of it is senseless.

I would not be surprised to learn that the "massacre's" are more propaganda than reality...an effort by the Palestinians to get backing from the Arab world. If the anti-American/Isreali sentiment can be taken a few notches higher...why not?

Until rational leadership emerges on both sides this mess will do nothing but simmer and escalate. The longer it goes on, the better the chances of other Arab states entering the fray.

Just my thoughts.
