HEADLINES FROM THE ISRAELI-GAZA FRONT

Israel vowed to continue its attacks on Gaza even in the wake of heavy criticism for the death of one of the leaders of Hamas. In fact, Israel has intensified its offensive, according to a report in The Jerusalem Post.

Even so, the Post published an analysis written by David Horovitz which suggests Israel is on the brink of making the same mistake it did in 2006 in The Second Lebanon War.

Israel has a history of making a strong start in its retaliatory responses to Islamic terrorists all around it. It also has an ominous history of losing its resolve early on in the face of world criticism and gradually waning support from its closest friends.

Related to that issue, the Post points to the intense battle for public opinion currently being waged on America's streets.

If Israel makes the mistake once again of retreating before the job is done, it may not have a chance to render its enemies impotent ever again. Each time Israel retreats, Hamas and Hezbollah grow stronger.

This is not good for Israel, America, or the world.

The danger that these Islamic terrorist organizations pose to American interests is highlighted here.

A bit of good news for Sarah Palin fans, such as myself--Governor Palin has shown solidarity with our Jewish friends by attending a Chanukah celebration in Anchorage, during which she lit a candle in memory of the victims of the terrorist attacks in India.

I agree with Pamela Geller...this woman has guts. I can't wait for her to run against the Obamination in 2012.
