Israel closes off Palestine territories
http://www.news.com.au/common/story_page/0,4057,7010395%255E1702,00.html

"ISRAEL imposed a strict cordon around the Palestinian territories overnight after a suicide bomber killed 19 people in west Jerusalem, military radio said today.

Meanwhile Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon has decided to freeze all contacts with the Palestinians after the attack in Jerusalem, a senior government official told AFP."

We should all remember why the noose must be tightened again. I will leave it at that.

2. To increase revenues for defense companies, of course

And hasten the Rapture.

3. If that's all Sharon does
He should be commended by the pro-Palestinians here who hate him, not scorned.

8. Why?
He's a terrorist, right?

I'm defining terrorism = murder of innocent men, women and children BTW.

5. Don't worry. I'm sure he'll drive another nail into Israel's coffin

Kill some more Palestinian children, old people, torture some more teenagers, block some more food, tear down whatever 3 or 4 of those terrorist olive trees are left.

And fill his pockets.

7. Pocket filling
I thought that was more the territory of his opposite number, Mr. Arafat.

So what realistic option do you recommend? Other than surrender I mean.
