A Little Overkill Anyone?

This sounds like something straight out of the movies. Specifically The Untouchables. Remember this speech by Sean Connery?

Malone: You wanna know how you do it? Here's how, they pull a knife, you pull a gun. He sends one of yours to the hospital, you send one of his to the morgue. That's the Chicago way, and that's how you get Capone! Now do you want to do that? Are you ready to do that?
Ness: I have sworn to capture this man with all legal powers at my disposal and I will do so.

More dialogue from the movie over at IMDb. But that's only a movie. Its fiction. This is real life.

Israeli forces arrested nearly one-third of the Hamas-led Palestinian Cabinet and 20 lawmakers early Thursday and pressed their incursion into Gaza, responding to the abduction of one of its soldiers.

On Thursday, Israeli aircraft fired missiles at the southern Gaza Strip, with the military saying it aimed at open areas, and Palestinian medical officials saying a car was hit.

No injuries were reported.

The strike took place near the town of Khan Younis.

Meanwhile, Israeli warplanes also buzzed the summer home of Syria's president, accused by Israel of harboring the hard-line Hamas leaders its [sic] blames for masterminding the kidnapping.

Palestinian witnesses told The Associated Press that Israeli tanks and bulldozers entered northern Gaza before daybreak Thursday, adding a second front to the Israeli action in Gaza that began early Wednesday when thousands of Israeli troops crossed into southern Gaza.

Twenty seven for one and a side trip to Syria to boot.
