What is striking in the following report is what Israel did, and more importantly, what it did not do. No, we didn't fire at any civilian cities. No, we didn't shoot missiles into huge populated areas wondering where they would hit. And no, we hit no houses of God because when you put weapons in a house for the purpose of evil, I believe God leaves that house and all His holiness goes with Him.
