Default the lastest civilian deaths:

from CNN:

Quote:
"We can't do anything for them under the rubble because we do not have the right equipment," the unidentified official said.

Red Cross worker Sami Yazbak, who was helping to pull bodies from the building, said many of the children who were sleeping inside were handicapped.

Video broadcast by Arab TV showed the bloodied bodies of women and children who appeared to be wearing night clothes. Many of the bodies were under rubble in the basement of the building.
Images of handicapped, poor children in their night clothes. Dead. Couldn't afford to leave.

Israeli's are running a clinic on how not to run a war. They are playing a videogame war.

You had better 1) go for an all-out ground invasion against this guerilla force (with likely poor results in the longterm) or 2) accept international peace-making.

Dropping bombs and racking up hundreds of civilian deaths is not the way to go. I hope Condi has an ace in the whole, because two things are coming through:
1) Condi looks like she is bumbling around
2) Bush is silent and looks to be devoid of any ideas or leadership

If we saw images of dead American children like that, national outrage would be uncontrollable, whether fair or not. I expect the same will happen among Muslims. We will pay a price for this, as well as the Israelis, whether fair or not.
