We are all aware of how the commandos moved into Entebbe airport and rescued the hostages that had been taken by the PLO to Africa. We are aware of how the commandos have been used very effectively against military tragets in other parts of this Middle East area. So I would say that there is a backup position that does not include the indiscriminate use of cluster bombs against refugees and innocent civilians. The commando action against purely and only an identifiable military target is not fully acceptable to me. but. certainly. is by far preferable to the policy now being used in the bombing actions of the Israeli Air Force.
