The Silence is Deafening. Where is the condemnation?

  300 Dead by Israeli Airstrikes

   Three hundred to one?  I read one Israeli was killed by a rocket. Who was he Reinhard Heydrich?

Israel pounded Hamas targets in the Gaza Strip from the air on Sunday and prepared for a possible invasion after killing at least 296 Palestinians in two days of attacks.

   Here they come this is going to be brutal. Israel is going to bleed Hamas until Bush leaves office.  It looks like Hamas is going to be in a US sanctioned fight for its life. We push the elections in which Hamas is elected. Now we unleash an eager Israel to overthrow Hamas. This isn’t a exactly a proud moment for our nation. This is more of the insane foreign policy under Bush and Cheney. How many Palestinian people are going to suffer for our meddling?

Israeli tanks deployed on the edge of the Gaza Strip, poised to enter the densely populated enclave of 1.5 million Palestinians. Prime Minister Ehud Olmert’s cabinet approved a call-up of 6,500 reservists, a government official said.

Mark Regev, a spokesman for Olmert, said Israel would press on with the campaign “until we have a new security environment in the south, when the population there will no longer live in terror and in fear of constant rocket barrages.”

Asked how long the operation would last, Israel’s military spokesman, Avi Benayahu told an Israeli television channel it could “still take many days.”

Israel expanded its air campaign to the southern Gaza Strip, bombing some 40 smuggling tunnels running under the border with Egypt, a network that is a lifeline to the outside world.

   Bush has made a deal. Israel is going to kill a lot of people before he stops them. Saying nothing is not an option here there is blood all over our US hands. Israel needs to feel political heat to stand down. Obama needs to say something. No matter how cold our official policy toward Palestine this must be stopped immediately. The Silence is Deafening.
