They full well know that they should remove those 5.000 settlers from Gaza; they should never have settled there.

They shouldn't have been kicked out in 1947.
You know that jews were similarly ethnically cleansed out of their homes in areas which after the 49' cease fire agreement belonged to the arabs.

How can Israel expect peace, if they are not even willing to hand over to the Palestinians that tiny strip of territory? Which does belong to Egypt in the first place, or am I mistaken?

How can the arabs expect peace, if in 1947 they weren't even willing to hand over to the Israelis, a tiny strip of territory, in which the Israelis were already a majority?

This means I don't have to ask you whether you're a racist or not.

It's very morally difficult when people die, even combatants. And though a local one may be happy for the removal of a threat on him, one has to feel saddenned due to the pain of his family and friends, and that man's tragedy.

The fact that people around the world, can sit in thier chair and have pleasure out of seeing a specific ethnicity / religion die and gloat about it, is very saddenning.

Wow...that was a big bomb. I wonder who made it for the palestinians?

One of the "Karin-A" 's that slipped our hands.

Karin-A had something like 3 tons of high quality explosives.

Question: Will this prevent Israeli incursions (or make them think twice)?

It wasn't an incursion.
No, it will make us use more tanks and shoot more ahead of us or something.

Also Russians are generally easier to produce and maintain.

That's good, since you would need more crews to go with those tanks...

"Concerning the SF, yes. They get plenty of training in Afghanistan. But your pilots dont do stuff more complicated than our pilots. Dropping bombs on structures is not that hard. "

We do more then drop bombs on structures, we also have dealt with strong enemy anti-aircraft capabalites(In Serbia they had a pretty good Russian Air-Defense system, and in Afghanistan I think the Taliban still had some functional Stingers)



"You never fought the Taliban."

We never went after them full-scale, but our SF units also helped to fight Taliban mujahadieen, who had all the fighting experience in the world.

I wonder why the Palestinians don´t use land mines a lot in their territory. That´s what I´d do if I were them.

Would sure make Israelis think twice about incursion.

Where would you put them that Palestinians wouldn't also die?

A skilled tactician should be able to come up with a few solutions.

They already have missiles that can reach deep into Isreali territory. Why would they need to mine thier own territory?

Because mines, unlike missiles, are defensive in kind.

If Israelis invade Palestinian territory, run on a mine and suffer casualties, they won´t be able to turn it to their advantage propagandistically (unlike 'unprovoked' missile attacks).

Um yes they would, because it would be clear that the Israelis are fighting a Palestinian army, not a popular uprising.

If you can point out just one instance of somebody making extencive use of landmines in civilian areas they claim to care about, I'll concede the possible military utility of such an action.

By 'extensive' I didn´t mean they should use thousands; misunderstanding may be my mistake.

But what about regularly setting a few clever traps on expected Israeli paths of advance?

They also happen to be major roads of Palestinian communities.

Your urge to kill Israelis is sickening.
