    Re: Breaking Palestinians: IDF forces on the move to southern Gaza

    It will be interesting to see how far the IDF will go. The concept of taking back the land is interesting and would be a sharp turn in policy for Israel at this point. Also, I can already hear the screams from around the world. Good job of keeping us up to date. Thanks. BTW, praying for the IDF and innocent children and women.

      Has anyone gone to Arutz Sheva website and listened to the live radio? I am about to go home just so I can listen. (I am not home this week)

                It appears that Olmert may have "choked" - then again the Pallys may refuse to disengage and a real fight break out...

                  First western new reports


                  Israeli planes attack 3 Gaza bridges

                  By IBRAHIM BARZAK, Associated Press Writer
                  18 minutes ago

                  Israeli planes attacked three bridges in central Gaza, the military said Wednesday, and Israeli tanks were on the move after the government approved a limited operation — a response to a weekend Palestinian attack in which two soldiers were killed and a third captured.

                  The Israeli military said in a statement that the object of the attacks on the bridges late Tuesday and early Wednesday was "to impair the ability of the terrorists to transfer the kidnapped soldier." Knocking down the bridges would cut Gaza in two, Palestinian security officials said.

                  Israeli military officials said Prime Minister Ehud Olmert approved a "limited operation" for southern Gaza, aimed at "terrorist infrastructure." The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to talk to reporters.

                  Palestinian security forces said Israeli tanks were on the move near the Israeli village of Nahal Oz, a main Israeli staging area just outside Gaza, but that they had not yet entered the territory. An Associated Press reporter saw tanks moving on the Israeli side of the border fence.

                  In the Shajaiyeh neighborhood of Gaza City, not far from the fence, armed militants took up positions across from the blaring headlights of Israeli vehicles, and Israeli attack helicopters hovered overhead. The roar of Israeli fighter planes reverberated throughout Gaza City.

                  The militants told residents to leave the area. They piled gasoline-soaked tires in the streets. Earlier, bulldozers blocked some of the main roads with piles of sand and dirt to try to slow down Israeli tanks.

                      GAZA (Reuters) - Israeli tanks and troops rolled into the southern Gaza Strip on Wednesday after mediators said hope was running out of recovering a soldier abducted by Palestinian gunmen.

                      The night-time incursion came shortly after Palestinian security forces deployed near the border town of Rafah, site of Gaza's only airport, said they were ordered out by the Israeli military.

                      The Israeli army confirmed its forces had crossed the border, the first major ground offensive in Gaza since the Jewish state withdrew last year after 38 years of occupation.

                        HERE IT IS...

                        GAZA (Reuters) - Palestinian security forces pulled out of the disused airport in the southern Gaza Strip on Wednesday after a warning from Israeli troops who are poised for an offensive, Palestinian security sources said.

                        They said that forces loyal to President Mamoud Abbas had been given 30 minutes to leave the airport at Rafah, close to the border with Israel and on the expected entry route for any Israeli push into Gaza

                                I heard there were conflicting reports about the kidnapped soldier. one source said he has been rescued, but was slightly wounded in the rescue. another source refused to confirm that. this was reported on fox news.
