Talk politics.

Notice this:

Israel has lost six soldiers, four of whom died in friendly-fire incidents.

So basically, Hamas killed 2, and Israel killed 4. Maybe Israel should bomb Tel Aviv now?
Watching this "war" is just...sad. Its really like a big gang beating up a 12 year old boy. Yeah, not a nice, cute 12 year old, but an annoying brat, but still, 12 year old.

In all fairness, the above quotation is not the total soldiers died. The next line says,
Four other Israelis have been killed by rocket fire since the current round of fighting began on Dec. 27.

The total is then probably 6 killed by Hamas and 4 by Israel army. Now it seems Hamas is a bit more scary, just edging out the IDF.

Other things to put in context. From 2001 to before the end of the cease-fire, approximately 13-23 (depending on the source) Israelis were killed by Hamas rockets. 13-23 In 7 years. And in two weeks more than 670 palestanians have died. Look at that again. A dozen or two in 7years and more than 670 in two weeks. In just the attack on the UN school, more than 30 people died (some sources say more than 40).

This source says that 1/3rd of all the people killed have been children.

Also, people always talk about the Arab league and whatever, but they don't really WANT to get involved.

Saudi's response to Iran's suggestion of using oil as a pressure tool:
"The oil producers who need their income ... are not going to do that," Saudi Foreign Minister Prince Saud Al-Faisal told reporters at a news conference.
"How can you do that? You stop producing oil in order to put pressure on people and you suffer as much as anybody else suffers," Prince Saud noted.
