They didn't say there had to be a cease fire, so by that definition they are not anti-Israel.;)

2. In what key do you want that in?
You mean Arco's pop song, or the jazzy version by The Tao of Cello?

3. Perhaps they think they ARE practicing restraint.
They did not launch nukes, after all.

9. meaning.... Restrain The Press
The White House doesn't want to see any more bunker busters going off live on CNN. It's bad for business.
