Hezbullah's leader Nasrallah may not be taking action at this time, but he's got advice for others. MEMRI reports that in statements posted on the Hezbullah website, Nasrallah:
Urges Egyptian officers "to Rebel Against Their Regime's Policies, Calls For Demonstrations in Arab and Muslim World to Pressure Governments"...and he's also got a plan of action for the Egyptian man in the street:
"Let the Egyptian people go out on the streets in their millions. Can the Egyptian police arrest millions of Egyptians? No they can not! We all call upon the Egyptian people, because they are the ones facing this regime… People of Egypt, you must open this Rafah crossing with your bare chests if you have to, and I do not hypothesize here. I'm talking from a position of [one who has] participated [in] the resistance, which fought for 33 days... sacrificed and gave [the lives of its] martyrs. [According to] what we know and what we hear about the officers and soldiers of the Egyptian Armed Forces, [they are] still proud of their Arabism, [and] continue to oppose Zionism, despite the decades [that have] passed since the (so-called) Camp David peace agreement... "-Nasrallah's full plan
They are now hiding behind them.

54 officers were injured in the exercise at a military training facility in southern Israel. The injuries included broken bones and sprained limbs. "When there is such a large exercise meant to simulate a real-life situation, there are also injuries," a police statement said. They included five injured when a police van overturned, reportedly caused by the driver who fell asleep.
I am witness

Check Mate in 3 Steps...
Better Resign Now
or Buy Stocks on TSE.
I hope Nasrallah fossilizes in his bunker
check mate? you really don't understand anything...
Israel hasn't learned any lesson from the past. Hamas is a strong popular movement, not only millitary wing. And it is impossible to destroy an insurgency by military force alone without first getting the civilian population on your side. Just look at Iraq and Afghanistan.
I'm disappointed to see your normally witty and insightful comic strip degenerate into this base characterisation that has the air of state wartime propaganda. I expected more from your pen, especially now when the world wants to know what Israelis really think.
Aaron,
You say that "the world wants to know what Israelis really think".
Today's cartoon expresses what I, and I would guess, most Israelis believe to be true.

All the Israelis I have heard from have been saying ENOUGH IS ENOUGH OF THE ROCKETS! And the overwhelming opinion in Israel is in support of the military action in Gaza against Hamas! I would like to add that the overwhelming opinion of evangelical Christians in the USA is also in support of the military action against the terrorists, Hamas. The innocent Palestinians allowed Hamas to reign their terror over them, like a cruel dictatorship, and it is the fault of Hamas' cowardice, hiding behind civilians, that cause the innocent loss of life.
My prayers and support go to the IDF and the Israeli people!

what happen in Papestine , Now u tell me who is the terrorist you israel/zionis or muslim?
The whole world think muslim are terrorist, but happen nowadays u can see from your own eyes who is really terrorist...israel dont be so coward if u really want to fight please open the gate to Gaza, and then u can see many muslim will came into that gate and fight until our last blood even we only use our teeth.
Continuous rocket fire into civilian neighborhoods is intolerable, but being denied sovereignty over your own ports, borders, trade, electricity, water, and government is inhuman. I think the one is much worse than the other. As long as Palestinians are denied the rights Israelis enjoy, Israelis will probably have to deal with terrorism. I'm a cartoonist - here is my counter cartoon, Gaza Embattled.
