Just to clarify, it is legitimate to call attackers such as these dirt bags terrorists. I have no problems either with any nation taking them out on the street and putting a bullet in their head when caught with their hands in the cookie jar.

My apologies if my earlier comment appeared to the contrary. I was simply amused by your satirical wit.

No, need to apologize, I got your comment right.
My definition was directed at mookie's post, as he seems to imply that Haaretz' choice of words would be judgemental.
When somebody attacks a bus of civilians, one would call the attacker a criminal, when they have an ideological background it is not a bias to call them terrorists.

My half-arsed attempt of a satire was directed at people who try to legitimate those attacks with the most absurd justifications. People who claim to support freedom but have no problems getting into bed with the fascists from Hamas.

I didn't imply anything. I found it funny to highlight the difference in terms that Haaretz used vs AP's. It goes to show even the slightest difference in wording can alter someone's view of a story.

One could assume the Israeli victims to be the first victims of the "Arab Spring". With the power of Mubarak gone, who massively supressed terrorism by pro-Palestinian and jihadi groups on the Sinai, and with the Muslim Brotherhood set to probably become the biggest political winner of the upcoming elections, it seems that the time of peace at the Israeli-Egyptian border is over, and Egyptian engagement in securing the borders will fade.

A first reaction from European nutheads I already have heared: when the Egyptian border becomes open for terrrorists to strike, then Israel has even less an argument to isolate Gaza anymore and should end the blockade, some left loonies say.

If you get shot into the head through your left cheek, then do not try to do something about that. Also turn the right cheek instead.

Nope, the genarals will be running the show just as they have been running the show for many decades.

Actually it makes perfect sense, the reasoning behind the blockade was very weak in the first place and has progressively fallen apart, nowadays there isn't a single one of the reasons remaining which were given for the blockade.

Sounds like that Jewish carpenter they nailed to a cross for telling people to "be nice to each other"

When an attack comes from say 'That direction'?
You close it down and close it down hard!
