A Mortar A Day Does Not Keep Israel Away


Over the past few weeks I have learned that Palestinian militants have to be some of the dumbest people around. I mean, launching daily mortar attacks is a great way to bully someone into leaving. But just like any good bully movie, or any bully movie for that matter, the shit really hits the fan when the roles reverse and the people getting picked on come back and kick the bully's ass. That's when Israel went on a 2 week ass kicking campaign straight to the heart of sissy land. That's also about the same time the hippies got all up in arms about how war is bad.

Imagine living in a border town where a daily bombardment isn't a threat but a guarantee. Those people live a little "mini 9/11" every day and have been for years. Kids shouldn't have to worry about going outside to play soccer and getting blown up. Thankfully, there is still one country not afraid to stand up for itself and fight back these days.

They were up against a tough and heartless enemy that hid in schools and mosques and used civilians as human shields. This didn't stop Israel though from laying a massive ass kicking on them. Sure there was some collateral damage, but in the big picture I don't think it even comes close to living with daily mortar attacks for years on end. The media even made Israel out to be the bad guys, which really boggled my mind and proved just how soft people are these days. While I'm sure there were a few hippies protesting, there were no mainstream protests about carpet bombing, which was the norm during the first 2 world wars, which made no distinction between military and civilian targets. But now we can't even use a laser guided missile to bomb a mosque filled with RPG launching terrorists without the whole world crying foul. This is why were losing in Afghanistan, we let popular opinion make the calls. This is also why Israel won in Gaza, they told the hippies to fuck off.

After 2 weeks of fighting, and 13 days of terrorist ninnies begging for a cease fire, Israel agreed and withdrew it's troops on the simple condition that the cease fire truly be adhered to and the mortar attacks stop. Within 24 hours though, the dumb ass camel cowboy militants were back at it and why Israel didn't go back over there and destroy the entire sandbox of Gaza is beyond me. they did fight back though with missile attacks of their own, and once again were made out to be the bad guys.

To Israel and anyone with half a brain, this man is a terrorist and a dumbass.
To the rest of the world he is a poor, innocent civilian.

It really is too bad that in the 70 years since World War II, standing up to bullies has become such an unpopular thing to do. Especially when today's bullies have made it perfectly clear that the only way to stop them is to completely destroy them.
