"If that can be accomplished without a ramping up of military activity in Gaza, that's preferable," Obama said. "It's not just preferable for the people of Gaza. It's also preferable for Israelis, because if Israeli troops are in Gaza, they're much more at risk of incurring fatalities or being wounded."I think we can file that under "No shit, Sherlock." Troops are in danger in a war zone. Who woulda thought? Did he have to read Patton's book to figure that out? I'm sure the Israelis had no idea that troops are in more danger in a war zone than they are sitting at home.
Now that you've had this tremendous revelation, President Obama, maybe you could apply it to my son who was almost blown up last week.
At least there's a damn fine, simple reason the Israelis are fighting. They're being actively attacked by people that hate them and want to wipe them off the face of the earth. Can we say the same in Afghanistan? I don't think so.
