Call to maintain calm.

In related news, AL AKHBAR reported that voices calling for "maintaining the calm" in Israel are beginning to rise. The paper said that a number of editorials in Israeli dailies argued that it was in the favor of the Jewish state not to escalate tensions further. The view of these dailies, AL AKHBAR said, was that Israel is now living in a relative state of security "after having dealt with Hamas rocket-fire from the Gaza Strip." In addition to this, opponents of escalation believe that the Israeli air force is more than capable of "dealing swiftly with Hizbullah on Israel's northern borders."
