Palestinians have killed 1000 Israelis so far and wounded more than 4000 innocents civilians including Israeli babies, infants, women and elderly.
Palestinians have imposed a blockade on Israel for more than a year and half.
Palestinians occupy other than their land
i am telling the truth upon what i see
palestinians use apache, F16 and tanks to bombard others
Israels are innocents, they just fire some rockets which has hardly killed 5 palestinians in 19 days of this war.
Yes kingman this is the truth, only Israelis have a right to defend themselves, Palestinians are expected to allow Israelis to kill them without resisting, bush said israel has the right to defend itself, palestinians have no right to live, even Arabs endorse this view and hide in their palaces...
Whats to explain why they won't let civilians out of a war zone, why they won't care for the wounded and dying, why they lock men, women and children in a building and blow it up. Why they run over a baby with a tank? Its quite obvious to the world Israel wants to annihilate the Palestinians now and in the future. I don't want an explanation I want it to stop now.
IF THEY CLAIM THE HAMAS HIDES BEHIND CIVILIANS LET THEM OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

IAF strikes some 60 Hamas targets in Gaza overnight raids
By YAAKOV KATZ, JPOST.COM STAFF AND AP
The IAF attacked some sixty targets in the Gaza Strip overnight Tuesday, Israel Radio reported. The targets included 30 terrorists smuggling tunnels, weapons storage facilities and rocket launch squads.
IDF troops push deeper into Gaza City
Israel Radio reported that the IDF was turning up the heat on Hamas Wednesday morning, with ground forces progressing slowly to prevent civilian casualties.
According to Palestinian reports, one of the targets hit over night was the old Gaza city hall, which has been used as a court building in recent years
The 1910 structure was destroyed and many stores in the market around it were badly damaged, they said.

The Jerusalem Post could not confirm the report.
On Tuesday, the IDF pushed deeper into Gaza City and launched pinpoint raids in the southern Strip as Defense Minister Ehud Barak announced that his top aide would head to Cairo to try to secure a cease-fire that could end Operation Cast Lead.

Defense officials told The Jerusalem Post that Egypt had made progress in its talks with Hamas and that the head of the Defense Ministry's Diplomatic-Security Bureau, Amos Gilad, would head to Cairo on Thursday to evaluate the cease-fire proposal and present Israel's conditions.
The officials said Jerusalem was hoping to secure a guarantee from the Egyptians that they would invest resources and efforts in stopping the weapons smuggling from Sinai into the Gaza Strip under the Philadelphi Corridor.
One Israeli proposal, supported by the IDF, calls for the erection of a barrier surrounding the Egyptian side of Rafah, to be manned by Egyptian soldiers who will not allow weapons smugglers into the town. Israel has proposed a barrier consisting of two fences surrounding the Philadelphi Corridor and encompassing Egyptian Rafah, which would be accessible by a single road controlled by the military.
The idea was suggested several years ago by then-National Security Council head Giora Eiland.
"If the Egyptians provide us with guarantees that the smuggling will stop, the operation could be over by the end of the week," a top defense official told the Post. "It is all up to the Egyptians right now."
Gilad will hold talks on Thursday with Egyptian Intelligence Minister Omar Suleiman, and one of the issues will be an Egyptian request to increase the number of soldiers it has deployed along the border from 750 to several thousand. Gilad has expressed fierce opposition to the request, but other defense officials in Israel said Tuesday that the request to relax the troop limits set by the Egyptian-Israeli peace treaty needed to be considered.
"It is unclear why Amos Gilad is so adamantly against allowing Egypt to increase its force along Philadelphi," one official said. "If this is what the Egyptians want, then why not just give it to them?"
While diplomatic activity picked up speed on Tuesday, the IDF continued to push deeper into Gaza City as reservist units took over responsibility for several areas in the Strip. At least 50 Hamas gunmen were killed since Monday evening.
Rocket fire also dwindled, with some 15 rockets and mortar shells striking Israel - the lowest since Operation Cast Lead was launched on December 27 - by Tuesday evening.
"The operation is continuing on its 18th day with the aim of restoring quiet for southerners and curbing weapons smuggling," Barak said Tuesday. "We are working on both these goals, with an eye on diplomatic initiatives."
Lt. Aharon Karov from the Battalion 890 of the Paratroopers Brigade was critically wounded by an explosion inside a booby-trapped home in northern Gaza during a early-morning operation. Two other soldiers sustained light wounds, and by evening, the officer's condition had slightly improved following an intensive and complicated operation.
Karov, a resident of Karnei Shomron, was called up to join the fighting in Gaza a day after his wedding, less than two weeks ago.
Meanwhile, the IDF commenced heavy shelling of targets on Gaza City's outskirts early Tuesday, as soldiers continued to push deeper into the urban center. Ground troops battled Palestinian gunmen in a densely populated Gaza City neighborhood.
Military sources said the objective of Operation Cast Lead - weakening Hamas and restoring Israel's deterrence - had not yet been accomplished, and that the army would continue its push into Gaza City to hunt down Hamas operatives and infrastructure.
The purpose of deepening the operation, officials said, was to increase the pressure on Hamas and to buy time to see if the Egyptian proposal materialized into a cease-fire.
Overnight in northern Gaza, Hamas gunmen fired at troops from a mosque. The soldiers returned fire, and the IAF then bombed the mosque's courtyard after spotting the armed men.
The air force bombed some 60 targets overnight, including seven weapons storehouses, 15 Kassam launch pads and 10 Hamas outposts.
On Tuesday, an additional 50 targets were hit, including 30 tunnels.
Hamas rockets have been killing 1000 Israelis so far and wounded more than 4000 innocents civilians including Israeli babies, infants, women and elderly.
Palestinians have imposed a blockade on Israel for more than a year and half.
Plaestinians occupy other than their land
i am tellign the truth upon what i see

Yup war is ugly. Doesn't change the fact that the only way to stop it is for both sides to communicate and find a peaceful resolution that will allow them both to exist.
there will be no peace in the Palestine land because the objective of Hamas is to drive Israel out of Palestine. And Israel is adamantly and realistically-speaking, will not get out.

Kakka Barak Obama

also You like the Jews and the Zionists and you don't have any ethics and humanity
there will be no peace in the Palestine land because the objective of Hamas is to drive Israel out of Palestine. And Israel is adamantly and realistically-speaking, will not get out.
"dgoodrebel will always be the rebellious good one"
this has been discussed before
its a simbiotic relationship... they both need each other...
till they start talking there isn't much hope
I agree with GYPSY! There will be no peace until both sides agree to live together. There's no other option.
and...
As long as we see threads like these... we are accumulating anger..
Stop sending Rockets to Israel as the 1st step.
A fool and his money are soon parted.
-Thomas Tusser
There will be no peace until both sides agree to live together. There's no other option.
Just pray .....
