What took Israel so long to finally take some decisive action? Any other country would have put a stop to the shelling after the first rocket was fired. But-better late than never. May G-d help and protect our soldiers. Each and every one is a true Hero.

In response to the first comment it took so long because of the world pressure. The government it seems is now using a limited attack staying to spacial targets in order too be as none offensive as is possible in their defense of Israel as a whole. One must remember that when then military is hamstrung in such a way those they are charged with fighting some how know and stay just out of their reach. I applaud the decision too enter Gaza and all that this entails but let the men do their whole job and you may not need to return.. My prayers now are for those young men on the front line just as they have been for all the rocket victims these last few years and as they were for those who were removed from Gaza to allow this too happen for this is the end of the matter peace is not gained by appeasement. May all be blessed
