Israelis Begin Ground Assault

What is it about the Arab world that brings out the best in their war hyperbole? Hamas has vowed to turn the Gaza strip into a “cemetery” for the Israeli army, which has just launched a ground offensive after a week of air assaults on Hamas targets.

Of course, it doesn’t compare to Saddam Hussein and his minions during the build up to the two Gulf Wars, who said our troops would be swimming in pools of their own blood and the desert would stink with the stench of their rotting corpses (or something to that effect).

I’m mean, that just conjures up all sorts of images.
