This looks so little like a rescue effort for missing Israeli serviceman, and so much like a war, that I am persuaded now of the theory that the Israeli authorities had had a plan for some time to destroy the elected Hamas government and encourage a coup by Palestinian President, Mahmoudd Abbas. Although it is worrying that the Bush administration has to say publicly that for the Israelis to just kill Abbas (the secular Fateh politician) is unacceptable. Anyway, look for Mahmoud or his successor to try to take over and marginalize Hamas. That will undermine all Bush administration arguments for democracy (Hamas is the one that won elections) in the region.
...although the Israelis made a point of bombing Palestinian PM (and Hamas Member) Ismail Haniyeh's office when it was empty. They seem to be applying the same treatment they gave Arafat, where they bomb around the leadership structure and hit all the government facilities when nobody is home, so the government survives but has to operate out of ruins.

The Israelis don't seem bloodthirsty to me if your last paragraph is correct.
I'm an old man and have an old fashioned view of Israel's plight. I also have and old fashioned view of the countries that could be helping Palistinians but are instead, heaping hate propaganda on Israel that would make Alolph Hitler blush.
Many peoples and many races have suffered enormously over the centuries but you know as well as I who's on top of that list.
Give the Jews theirs and thank them for their patience, intelligence, humour and regard for the human race,in sharp contrast to monsters who would slaughter in the name of some twisted religion by subhumans like bin laden.
The Palestinians have been sucking the "I'm a victim" lemon for so long they are now a socially deviant culture that celebrate children committing suicide and murdering Jewish children in pizza parlours.
There are reaosns the Palestinians are desoised throughout the middle east, in every country where they have accumulated over the years.
The PR campaign in the West is threadbare at best these days, There repeated lying about day-to-day life and their attrocious interpretation of history and land claims has been exposed so often that now only the really hardcore moonbats and Lefty Wankers like CUPE still really believe in the cause.
Whatever anonymous.
Honestly, this murderous anger from the anti-Palestinian anonymi has a root cause somewhere that I suspect has nothing to do with Isreal-Palestine.
Whatever could it be?
