The Eagles moved into the top 25 for the first time all year after the upset, and will likely exit the polls next week after the loss to Harvard...
...Gaza. Any attempt to do so would require not only a massive invasion of all of Gaza, but also an open-ended reoccupation of a hostile population, a trap Olmert and Barak want to avoid at all costs. Thus, the key requirement for entering Gaza is having a quick exit strategy...
