The MSM has already begun the war to reign in Israel by showing pictures of poor Lebanon and Gaza.
In this situation we need to ask, What would Tony Soprano do?

CRUSH the opposition in the most brutal manner possible. This is war! They have an option of seeing the blood of their nation slowly seep into the battlefield over a period of years or they can wipe out all thoughts in the enemy's mind that they can compete on the battlefield.
