Here is a headline from the Jerusalem Post:
IAF Chief: Targeted killings to get more surgical
Does this mean that we will be targeting more surgeons?
Perhaps not:
The Israel Air Force has improved its fighting capabilities, including certain capabilities that minimize civilian casualties during targeted killing operations from the air, IAF chief Gen. Eliezer Shkedi said Sunday.
Shkedi said that the upgrade in capabilities will be the envy of all those nations engaged in the war against terrorism, and countries will ask to learn from the IAF’s techniques.
And here’s another reason for the terrorists and their supporters to soil their pants:
Israel’s plans to build what is described as a high-tech, “super amphibious attack ship” as the cornerstone of a new naval strategy for the 21st century is certain to raise objections in the Arab world, says a report in the latest issue of Joseph Farah’s G2 Bulletin, the premium online intelligence newsletter published by WND.
According to the plan presented by Gen. Ydidya Yaari, the navy will undertake a new role by introducing a multi-purpose attack ship capable of deploying anywhere in the Mediterranean and with a range of up to 3,200 kilometers.
This newly visualized unit is described as a 13,000-ton ship that will become the largest Israeli navy surface vessel capable of carrying armor, commando troops, helicopters and unmanned drones.
In addition, the navy envisions even more capabilities, such as launching decks for short takeoffs and landings and aircraft including the future U.S. main attack F-35 fighter jet.

With a crew of 115, the new unit would become the largest in the Israeli navy and would serve as leverage to change Israel’s current defense strategies by viewing and preparing for new threats stemming from the war against terrorism. It would also distinctly contribute to the defense against missile attacks, since the idea is to incorporate in such a naval unit not only an attack force, but also high-tech defense systems designed to intercept missiles, enemy submarines and to warn of any possible danger to Israel and her allies.
