It makes no mention of what MUST be demanded of Hamas. By including death to ‘the Zionist entity’ in their charter THEY have set the bar at Israel being pushed into the sea, or the total surrender of Hamas. At least the NY Times shouldmust recognize this. If anyone can reach the editor of the NY Times, today’s editorial calls on Israel to withdraw. It makes no mention of what MUST be demanded of Hamas.

The"JBlogosphere" has been tirelessly working on original materials as well as instant links to relevant information. Websites like Israelly Cool and The Muqata have been liveblogging Operation Cast Lead from the beginning, garnering tens of thousands of hits. Other blogs provide original analysis and reporting, like Yaacov Lozowick and Elder of Ziyon, to name only two. These are invaluable resources and need to be publicized more.
