ReplyDeleteI just posted in my blog too, asking people to keep the people of Gaza in their prayers tonight - they will definitely need it (they usually do though, don't they :( )
ReplyDeleteI couldn't find anything about four Israeli soldiers being killed. The English version of Reuters doesn't seem to have it? or maybe I didn't look well enough. There were some rumors here, following Barak's press conference, where he said something like "we had four people killed". He was referring to the civilian casualties from the rockets over the past week.
I know it's a futile hope, but I hope those soldiers come back safe home - the sooner the better. These are people, on both sides of this stupid war...
In Sweden many muslims are now by spread of SMS's praying two rakat and making du'a for the people in Gaza.
ReplyDeletei think it's the time to correct Sharon's big mistake and re-occupy Gaza to secure towns like Sderot from the Kassam rockets.
ReplyDeleteAn Egyptian,
ReplyDeleteI think it's time for the old bag to move to his retirement home: Hell. But, first he must be judged for his war crimes in the massacre of Sabra and Shatila.
I also think it's the time for the "stronger force" in Egypt to get rid of the minority and take over all Egyptian towns to secure them from betrayal of Zionist agents! How is that for a radical idea?
Lets all hope this will be the undoing of this attack in Gaza and inshaAllah they will retreat and have to stop their attack and open the borders again.
