Well sir, it's a pleasure to see someone with an understanding of strategic as well as tactical strategy. Clearing the area makes little sense otherwise - it's like chasing fleas on a pigs back. When the Kahn's armies marched thru islam in the 1200's, there were no known enemies left in his wake. Now the Mongols knew how to handle the islamist situation correctly. I visited a small town in Pakistan a number of years back, Bambor was the name as I recall; it was being archeologically excavated. The point is, the Mongols killed every living thing and piled the corpses 12-feet deep in the streets. The sands just blew in and buried the village. Israel cannot afford the luxury of Hezbollah pigs nipping at its rear flank, while they confront Syria. If you ever find the time you might enjoy “The Devil’s Horsemen” – by Chambers.

Venezuela's Chavez compares Israel to Hitler 04 Aug 2006 18:03:03 GMT Source: Reuters Printable view \| Email this article \| RSS [-] Text [+] Background Lebanon crisis Israeli-Palestinian conflict More DUBAI, Aug 4 (Reuters) - Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez on Friday blasted Israel for its attacks against Lebanon and Palestinians, comparing its operations to those of Hitler. In an interview with Qatar-based Al Jazeera television, Chavez also slammed U.S. backing for Israel, describing Washington as a "Dracula always searching for oil and blood". "The Israeli offensive against the Palestinians and Lebanon is an aggression that we feel targets us also. It is an unjustified aggression that is being carried out in the style of (Adolf) Hitler, in a Fascist fashion," he said, referring to the leader of Nazi Germany. "They (Israelis) are doing what Hitler did against the Jews. They are killing innocent children and whole families," he said in the remarks dubbed in Arabic. On Thursday, Chavez said he ordered the withdrawal of Venezuela's ambassador to Israel in protest. The Lebanon war, which erupted after Hizbollah snatched two Israeli soldiers in a border raid on July 12, has coincided with an Israeli offensive in the Gaza Strip to recover another captured soldier and halt Palestinian rocket fire. Chavez, on a visit to Doha where Al Jazeera is based, said Israel was carrying out an "imperialist offensive" against Lebanon and the Palestinians that was orchestrated by the United States as part of a bid to control the energy-rich region. "The American hand is pushing them. It is behind the Israeli aggression, it is an imperialist aggression ... and Israel is one of the imperialist tools."
