"How did it come to pass that an opposition's measure of a president's foreign policy was all or nothing, success or "failure"? The answer is that the political absolutism now normal in Washington arrived at the moment--Nov. 7, 2000--that our politics subordinated even a war against terror to seizing the office of the presidency." - Daniel Henninger - WSJ 11/18/05

Palestinians: IDF soldiers captured Hamas leader in Gaza, killed his brother

Israeli soldiers crossed into the Gaza Strip early Thursday in a raid that captured a local Hamas militant leader and left his brother dead near the southern Gaza border town of Abasan, Palestinians witnesses and officials said.

As the soldiers - backed by tanks and helicopter gunships - moved into the area and took up positions on rooftops, gunmen began firing at them, sparking gun battles that wounded two gunmen, Palestinian officials said. (AP)

Personally, I would love to hear more and more of this type of action...
