chaos and honey

so lets get this right, an israeli army outpost that was attacked today which functions on israeli soil by every legal definition and suffers two soldiers deaths and one soldier being abducted was merely being attatcked by 'militants'?
my question is this, if the militants were backed by hamas, publicly congratulated by hamas, and hamas is running the palestinian govt. - why isn't the attack described as an action by the palestinian govt against that of the israeli govt?
why shouldn't israel act as if a nation committed an act of war and proceed from there?
what other country on the planet would be asked to show restraint under such circumstance? what other country on the planet must sustain a daily barrage of missiles being fired into towns and told to understand the 'enemy'?

what have we gotten since we left gaza? we have watched as hamas was elected into power, qassams rain down on sderot and other areas, a couple of suicide bombings, and now this attack upon the israeli army.
ok, good, if the world but more importantly the israelis refuse to see the light and understand that nothing we ever do will be good enough for these people we are destined for only more trouble.
we must put our politically correct manners aside and fight a war.
