Israel's cabinet is scheduled to meet at 7:30 pm - about 15 minutes from now - and Prime Minister Ehud K. Olmert is scheduled to address the nation at 10:00 tonight. The media are reporting that Olmert will announce a unilateral cease fire (that means, we cease, they fire).

I am an Orthodox Jew - some would even call me 'ultra-Orthodox.' Born in Boston, I was a corporate and securities attorney in New York City for seven years before making aliya to Israel in 1991 (I don't look it but I really am that old :-). I have been happily married to the same woman for thirty-five years, and we have eight children (bli ayin hara) ranging in age from 13 to 33 years and nine grandchildren. Four of our children are married! Before I started blogging I was a heavy contributor on a number of email lists and ran an email list called the Matzav from 2000-2004.

"We cease, they fire"...Nice way to put it. So true.
So Israel loses another war. This just makes me sick.

Israel lost another war. The good news is Olmert's announcement certainly means the end of Livni and Barak's political careers. They betrayed the IDF along with Olmert and they deserve to pay the price. Israel was on verge of destroying Hamas and pulled back and got nothing - not even the return of Gilad Shalit as a sweetner. Public reaction in Israel is going to be furious. The clowns who bungled the Lebanon War bungled another one and learned nothing and forgot every thing. And Hamas has learned it can continue to terrorize Israel. They paid a small price to the cowardice and defeatism of Israel's triumvirate.
Yes, they fire. After all, Israel will be in the good graces of the world again for showing "restraint." Ain't the Jews real compassionate towards the new Nazis? I feel sick.
And so it continues...
So it does... every time its the same ending. Oh and there will be another war down the road. The clowns that run Israel have all but guaranteed it will happen again.
