Re: Scores die in Israeli air strikes
We should all love one another, and give each other hugs to show we care.....

Re: Scores die in Israeli air strikes
They are probably thinking about establishing a buffer zone big enough to stop most of the rocket attacks or at least make it easier to target the rockets. This isn't going to end well now or ever if they cannot get round the table and come to a resolution they can all live with and that isn't going to happen anytime soon.

So all those little childrens bodies were not civilian then? Try and defend the indefensable in your own mind if you wish but don't try and excuse it to the rest of us. How many rocket, mortar, bomb and suicide attacks have there been by Hamas in the last six months prior to last week anyway?

None, because there was a ceasefire.
From the BBC link quoted earlier -
"The Israel-Hamas truce was regularly under strain and was allowed to lapse when it expired this month.
Hamas blamed Israel for the end of the ceasefire, saying it had not respected its terms, including the lifting of the blockade under which little more than humanitarian aid has been allowed into Gaza. Israel said it initially began easing the blockade, but this was halted when Hamas failed to fulfil what Israel says were agreed conditions, including ending all rocket fire and halting weapons smuggling."
I personally think the Israelis are over-reacting (which they have a history of).

btw, people seem to forget the over 100 rocket and mortar attacks in past week from Gaza into Israel - or don't they count?

Seeing as your so keen to keep count didn't Israel send troops in to Gazza in November and kill a Hamas member a couple of weeks back, funny sort of cease fire but when you consider the slow death Gazza was suffering, perhaps blowing the hell out of the place was the humane thing to do after all.

Re: Scores die in Israeli air strikes
Israel has taken crap for too long. If someone keeps having a go at you, you eventually have a go back. If they wont sit down & talk, yet keep on having a go, you smack em down. Its unfortunate, but thats life.
Xaccers post, 55, made a lot of sense to me, but then again, Ive been around a bit longer & traveled more than most.
I dont remember Israel taking their land by force, the way I remember it was the U.N. that mandated the area be split into two, one for Jews & one for Arabs. The land was given to the Jews & the Arabs have been trying to get it back ever since. The Middle East is a ticking time bomb. As far as I can see, the Jews just want to live in peace, but the Arabs just wont let go. They wont leave it alone. Their like flies round a dinner table, a pest. One you eventually get sick of, & swat.

Do you mean this? Link
" The clashes began late Tuesday after Israeli forces burst into Gaza to destroy what the army said was a tunnel being dug near the border to kidnap Israeli troops.
Despite the outbreak of violence, both the Israeli authorities and officials with Gaza's Hamas government said they wanted to restore the calm that has largely prevailed for five months.
After the Israeli incursion, Hamas gunmen battled Israeli forces and Gaza residents reported hearing explosions, gunshots and helicopter fire. One Hamas fighter was killed, prompting a wave of mortar fire at nearby Israeli targets.
An Israeli airstrike then killed five Hamas militants who the army said were preparing to fire mortar shells. Hamas responded with the rockets."
