(PHOTO LINK BELOW) As the IDF works its way through the sixth day ofOperation Cast Lead, hundreds of terror targets have already been obliterated by the very capable IAF. The relentless bombings have left close to 400 Palestinians dead – most of them Hamas terrorists – and 2500 wounded.Approximately 10,000 IDF troops are amassedon the Gaza border awaiting orders on a very possible ground invasion of the Gaza Strip.
On the Israeli side, more than 400 rockets have landed in Southern Eretz Yisroel, killing 4 R”L, and injuring dozens – some seriously. Although we are saddened by the death of even one Jew, one cannot stop and see the Yad Hashem – how 400+ rockets slam into residential neighborhoods are there are not scoresof dead Yidden Chas Veshalom.
As we see images of thetroops nervously standing around and inspecting their tanks and equipment, we should all stop and think for a moment: No matter what ones Hashkafa is, we must still keep the Yidden whose lives are literally on the line in our Tefillos.
The YWN photo album of the war with Hamas in Gaza has been updated.

I don’t think you should use the wording ” by the very capable IAF ” . You may want to write it like this ” hundreds of terror targets have B’ezrat Hashem already been obliterated by the IAF “

a druze who serves in the army and is killed should have the halacha of a goy who was moiser nefesh for yisroel,dont you think so?put another way,if he wasnt there ,another soldier would have been there.many druze have died and i think that may assure them a place in olam haba
The Druze are like other chasidei umos haolum who save Jewish lives. Though we should say r’l for anyone who is bitzelem elokim
