Most of Israel's attacks on foreign soil has been on tunnels that Hamas built. Our Trip Ignore the map spot in Gvulot, we were never that close to gaza. I was in Metula 24 hours before Hamas launched missiles out of Lebanon. The problem is that Israel has become so complacent about being the target of attacks, after 9/11 you couldn't go ANYWHERE without seeing signs, flags, memorial pictures and people talking about it. I spent 14 days in Israel and with the exception of transport helicopters overhead you'd never know there was a war going on. This soldier died while we were in Israel, flowers ... no people screaming about injustice and demanding we find the murders... complacency... As far as other "hot zones" this is me standing in front of the West Bank, just over my left shoulder you can see where our guide lives, and just below them, the wall that "keeps the bad guys out".... we're screaming about our border to Mexico, look at how little area there is to patrol here... and people still got through because of tunnels. We, the world, has become complacent to violence. People are SCREAMING over a journalist publishing the dying picture of a soldier. Gilad Shalit, captured June 25 2006 at the ripe age of 19, believed to still be alive. We've become complacent to violence around us, having to see a picture that hurts us makes us uncomfortable. Alright, that's all for my soapbox right now.
