Re: Scores die in Israeli air strikes
This blame football is wonderful isn't it either side kicking it to the other when it suits them. Both groups have an equal share of responsibility for what has happened and trying to blame one side more then the other is hardly a good start to any diplomatic process is it. How stupid do you have to be to fire rockets at a superior military opponent and then to keep it up after they have taken offensive action.
Hamas are doing it hoping to expand this conflict into a wider conflict trying to get their so called arab friends to jump in as well. Israel at some point has a lot of questions to answer and personally until such time as they are prepared to act in accordance with international law they should be expelled from the UN. Also the US needs to stop protecting Israel from international responsibility for it's actions. This is not a simple situatio that has a simple solution it will take many years and being honest a change in the leadership of both sides before we can even begin diplomacy.
There is never going to be a solution while either side has a grip on the past and won't let that go. That is not to say the past isn't important but no forward progress can be made till both sides are prepared to forgive past conflicts and are prepared to compromise for the good of all their people.
