TO ALL AM ISRAEL
In the last few days we have witnessed a coming together of our nation in sorrow and in pain, as all hope was dashed for the safe return of Udi Goldwasser and Eldad Regev and instead we witnessed in horror the arrival of two black coffins!
Our enemies are waging against us a psychological war. They know how to push our buttons!!
But we must learn something from this horrific lesson.
We must show them that kidnapping doesn't pay!!
Not only Hizbullah, but now Hamas, is threatening to kidnap more of our soldiers, to exchange for terrorists murderers.
Hamas must be taught a lesson they won't soon forget. They must be told that all food and gasoline supply will be cut off forthwith until they return Gilad Shalit safe and sound. No prisoners whatsoever should be released at all.
Our government must call the shots and not give in to the terrorist murders. The first responsibility of our government is to protect its citizens including our brave and courageous soldiers.
We must not allow our humanitarian instincts to be used against us. We must finally acknowledge that this is war - part of the global jihad. We must not forget that the population of Gaza voted overwhelmingly for Hamas and all they stand for! that we are facing an enemy that is brainwashed and programmed for Jihad, that we are facing an intractable enemy bent on destruction of the "infidel" - Us!!
No other country at war has ever provided food and fuel to its enemies, quite the contrary; They destroyed fuel depots and food crops!!!
I do not agree.
The best way for Israel to end the hostage crisis was to stop rewarding the hostage takers.
This is simple.
No need to strike hamas..,cut eletricity..,
Besides if Israel does that it will be acused by everyone US included of collective punishment.
The way forward was stop rewarding hostage takers. Stop deals with hostage takers.

I disagree.
If israel cut electricity..,water to Gaza.., everyone including US would criticize israel.
Israel.., not Gaza.., would be the one under fire.
The best way to stop the hostage crisis is to stop reawarding hostage takers.
Sharon traded with hezbollah hundreds of prisioners for a israeli businessman and a few corpses in january 2004.
This only increase the resolve of Hezzbollah to have more of the same.
In 2006 Hezzbollah did strige and got more hostages.
The scene repeat itself.
Israel reward Hezzbollah again.
This will never stop untill Israel refuses to reward the kidnappers.
To cut water to Gaza is unpratical and impossible.
Israel would risk to have sanctions imposed against it.
Bad situation for Israel.
