The war has expanded to the West Bank, which was utterly predictable: Six wounded in W. Bank stabbing attack The terrorist was shot by an MDA medic. An armed society is a prepared society.
IAF destroying ammo dumps: IAF hits Hamas ammo stocks, tunnels Poor, poor Hamas. All that effort, gone in sixty seconds. Or so. Oh, and Islamic University is gone. Google that one to see the hatred it bred.
Iran’s up to its neck in this war: Don’t forget the Iranian Connection Read-in-full recommendation.
Stick it in your ear, Mashaal: Report: Hamas ready to sign Gaza truce Hamas is saying it’s ready to sign a “truce” that gives them exactly what they asked for before the war began—an end to the blockade and an end to the current attacks. Oh, yeah, that’ll go over well. Of course, that’s a good sign. The fact that Hamas is starting to beg Israel to stop means they’re hurting.
Hamas isn’t hurting enough: Some 50 rockets hit southern Israel Don’t stop the pounding. They’ve killed another Israeli, this time in Ashkelon. The ground forces are getting ready to go in. I think we’ll see that happen fairly soon.
It’s not just a pinpoint attack, people: Defense minister: This is an all out war And this one deserves an excerpt that the world, of course, will ignore:
“I would like to remind the world that Israel withdrew from the entire Gaza Strip more than three years ago. We gave a chance for a new reality, and all we’ve seen is Hamas firing rockets and missiles on our citizens and carrying out attacks against Israel,” he noted.
[…] “We have nothing against the citizens of Gaza, but we must fight against the Hamas leadership. We are making great efforts to prevent civilian casualties… We are not preventing humanitarian aid from entering the Gaza Strip.”
So what does the AP choose to quote? This:
Israel’s defense minister said his military is fighting a “war to the bitter end” against Hamas but is not fighting the residents of Gaza.
Way to make Israel look like the bloodthirsty ones, hey?
Alas Israel wasn’t that effective the last time they tried to stick something Meshaal’s ear.
Oh, and Islamic University is gone. Google that one to see the hatred it bred.”
Well, I don’t think they were favored to get into the NCAA tournament in March anyway.
Israel withdrew? Yeah, like that stopped any of the anti-semitten from blaming Israel for conditions in Gaza.
i’m new to this site :) it is the 1st time i see it. i found it so interesting.i’m a christian lebanese and i’m a supporter of the israeli raid on hamas.i don’t think the ground operation will take place anytime soon because the israeli front is so week and it cannot stand any losses,moreover israel doesn’t know how improved are hamas missiles and weapons are and it cannot bare another military failure.
