I think that one thing that must be considered, given that it has happened in earthquakes, etc., is that people might have alive for days and deliberately covered over with rubble. I say this as someone who is usually a military apologist, and someone who believes that a military occupation of Palestine will be necessary for some time. I personally will go over there and do it if necessary, and I'm not soft on terrorists. But I will not give a blank check to my government to support this sort of brutality. Those days are over. Not one piece of our equipment, not one dollar of our money without observers. mg
