dontb1,,,, It''s Isreal''s response to mortar attacks that haven''t been slowing down, I think --- But yes, not good for the peace efforts, Olmert still has to talk to Hamas

[donbl1]

J, that will get Israel condemnation on humanitarian grounds far beyond sending in tanks.

dontb1,,,, They did today, check out the article on MSNBC.com

J, I am sure Israel does not want to roll tanks into Gaza. Hamas has continued to fire rockets since they can no longer send in suicide bombers.

Israel is getting ready to cut off electricity and water to Gaza.

- It doesn''t look as though they want the "Peace" they were talking about yesterday.

In addition, their neighbor, India, also had significant but not as large.

Check some of the China oil deals during the past 5 years and where much of the ME oil goes. Most of the ME oil does NOT go to the US.
