Not at all. But your request seemed global, so it was strange to find you posting to me, and you never deigned to clarify what you meant. You can see the problem with that, I'm sure.

Now, what should Israel do? Two soldiers of theirs captured- well, kill two soldiers from the other side, if we're going for a blood price, as we seem to be doing, or even kill 10 soldiers, but not scores of innocent civilians. I have a problem with that. It is bad for Israel; it is bad for the innocent civilians, and it will actually end of making Israelis enemies look like complete victims. Now if that is the result you want, pursue it- but I think it's fairly negative. Israel needs to be a lot more surgical in it's exaction of blood prices to keep the sympathy of the world- which I assume you would like it to have.
