Israel needs to step up. What happened this morning is unacceptable. A line has been crossed. Lebanon, not just Hizbullah, needs to pay. No more talking. No more diplomacy. Just brutal force. They forced our hand. They, and only they, are responsible for the hellfire that will rain down on their country. Well, Syria too. I sense that a fly over of Assad’s palace isn’t going to cut it this time. Let’s see if Olmert has what it takes. But with comments like “Israel’s response will be restrained but very, very, very painful.” I fear he doesn’t have it in him.
The IDF is still censoring a lot of what went on this morning. The IDF thus far said that three were killed but I’ve heard rumors of substancially more…
UPDATE: The Jerusalem Post is now reporting that SEVEN soldiers were killed in this morning’s attack. Just to keep the rumor mill going, word is that both kidnapped soldiers were Druze Israelis.
