On a day where there is much news, escalated rocket attacks and high level confusion in our leaders as to what to do about it all, it is worthwhile to add a second outspoken opinion piece in this blogsite. This time the sentiment is coming from the left, but in an about face from the usual rhetoric. Yaron London, a television personality on the left, now feels that there must be an all out no-holds-barred military operation against Hamas.
In a article by Hillel Fendel in IsraelNationalNews, London's surprising article in Yediot Acharonot, and interview with Razi Barkai on Army Radio are discussed. It is very important to hear this (read this).
The truth cannot be ignored any longer. How many people will come forth and with courage state that they now see things they couldn't see before, remains to be seen. But hats off to Yaron London for his forthrightness. Let's not say "we told you so," but be thankful some are waking up. May many more join him.

There is no other choice.”..........
