I wonder how many rockets israel has fired at Gaza?
but then again number of rockets doesn't mean anything, one uses state of the art guided drones, while the other uses a bunch of fireworks.
Missile defense. It shoots down missiles. The US I think helped fund it.
ffs Egypt; am not saying I support any of this but this is the worst thing to do atm.
Probably not but it'll come up in any court case your involved in.
But you might be able to skip Jury duty
TBH, I'd rather we help fund a defensive measure than an offensive one. Thanks.

They attacked a car. So I assume the others were riding along. The video is on youtube.
Also the Israeli operation is #pillarsofdefense
Behind a paywall.
Shortly afterwards, Israel pounded the Gaza Strip with another 20 air strikes, killing five more people, two of them children, Hamas health minister Mufid Mukhalalati said in a televised press conference at Gaza City's Shifa hospital.
He said another 30 people had been injured in the wave of strikes on targets across the territory which hit Gaza City, the northern town of Beit Lahiya and the southern city of Khan Yunis.
fireworks that have killed many a people...

Fucking hell man.
Fucking hell man.
Is there any other nation who's government is any more morally corrupt that Israel?
And this is more 'self defense?'

You must have missed the 120 rockets fired into Israel since Sunday, because this whole issue didn't just start today.
Hamas? Saudi Arabia? Russia? Iran? China?

Iron Dome is defensive. It doesn't attack.
You need to show me a definition of terrorism that says occupation is terrorism. Its a military occupation which are legal under international law subject to certain regulations which Israel has broken with things like the settlements and annexation.I mean, Israel's very presence in Palestine could be considered terrorism. I'm pretty sure that if the tables were turned, and Palestinians took over Israeli land, the Israeli's would find it pretty upsetting.
I have zero respect for Hamas, but saying that Israel is merely defending themselves ignores decades of Israeli occupation and oppression. Israel is occupying stolen Palestinian land and continuing to enforce racist laws, similar to the post-US Civil War black codes, which effectively criminalize being Palestinian. It's a very systematic oppression and intentional persecution.
(Note: When I say Israel, I mean the Israeli government and military. Not the people of Israel. There are many within Israel who oppose the actions of the Israeli government.)
Fuck Hamas, for reals. But remember that Israel's occupation of Palestinian land is a daily, constant terrorism.
Fucking hell man.

I'm very eager to learn the number of injured and dead as a result of these rocket attacks, because nothing is more important than keeping score in the 'we're right' discussion of a brutal and prolonged war.

He was probably an arch-terrorist scumbag and he got what he deserved.
so you're saying it started Sunday when the Palestinians just decided to attack totally unprovoked?
and how many civilians did these 120 rockets kill? or even injure?
If only Obama visited Israel when he was in the area. WHY DONT YOU LOVE ISRAEL MORE BARACK
not sure if serious, going to guess you're not.

Yep, its just a stupid strategy to kill innocent civilians and kids....
Lol at iran. I cant recall Iranian government occupying and killing innocent civilian compare to the Israeli amazing track record.
Doesn't matter how many were killed or injured, does it? Israel is being attacked by rockets, Israeli civilians have to stay up at night in bomb shelters, that shit can't and won't continue. I don't care whether you approve and neither does Israel.
My sarcasm meter is going off like crazy. But I'm not sure... lol
You cant compare the two. Israel has provoked more than Iran has directly, and is still doing it. If its #'s vs #'s, Israel lost/wins that easy.

This whole thing is revolting.
Something about trolling both the IDF and Hamas just seems like a bad idea.
So is this Israels way of stirring tensions and further destroying chances at Palestinian UN statehood or something? Clearly they're getting more desperate as the days go by.
I didnt. I am just responding to this list that include iran. Lol at that. If i am thinking of aggressive nation that is morally corrupt.. Iran might not be even in top 30.
Well that picture just ruined my day.
well guess what? Palestinians are being attacked by missiles, air raids, solders, settlers with guns and the occasional tank here and there. Palestinians don't even have bomb shelters, and when they're injured they can't get good treatment because their hospitals are under stocked because of the blockade. When Palestinians are slaughtered nobody gives a fuck, yet for some reason that shit can and will continue.
israel has never cared about anybody's approval.
check post #29
I was trying to +1 on your post.. thats all.. . :\
People need to see it. I think the world needs to start seeing it.
And one day someone will have pics of the Congo too... if you really wanna wake up.
The IDF kills a lot of Palestinian civilians. When it does kill a militant, it couches every death leading up to it in the 'self defense' narrative, never acknowledging that the civilian deaths are what fuel the militancy. If we're going to compare notes like adults, let's not just quote what I'm saying with 'you must have missed the 120 rockets' because that's saying a whole lot of nothing except 'civilian deaths and casualties == 120 rockets.'

CHEEZMO;44341093 said:If they do go ahead with their bid I hope this helps people see exactly why recognition is needed.
So if Palestine is recognized by the UN and the fighting continues, what is the potential next step?
BUT WHAT ABOUT PETRAEUS FOLKS?!!?!?!?!
