I'm thinking that an eye for 10! eyes does not work. Neither does an eye for an eye. That's what I'm thinking. I guess you are thinking up the ratio to 1000 to 1? Sheesh...

Man, I dont know what are you thinking, are you ever was in combat, street fighting where if you miss a fraction of the second you are gone. What are you really thinking. Maybe Israeli should bomb the hell out of Jenin and would not loose a single man. He's thinking that the Israelis ran over peaceful civilians in Jenin, an easy impression to get from the American coverage. In fact, there was a battle with the Tanzim and Al Aqsa militias who were based there. As far as I can tell the tactics from the Israeli papers, the Palestinians were counting on the fact that Israeli soldiers who ventured on foot into the crowded cinderblock warrens of Jenin would be sitting ducks for ambush, so the Israelis went through houses, not the streets. I'm sure a lot of civilians got killed in the process as well as the fighters, who by all accounts fought until they ran out of ammo, then surrendered. I'm equally sure the press coverage will record all the dead as civilians.
