If I knew nothing else about this conflict: Isreal attacks military assets that are used against it, Hamas targets civilians.

It is time to Dresdenize Gaza. It was time long, long ago.

I hope they ignore us and do what they must without asking obambi for permision.

VegasRick on November 15, 2012 at 12:12 PM

Oh well, it looks like Israel is going have to strike back even harder on the Gaza thugs. What I now fear is that Hezbollah, Iran’s agents, might start something on the northern border. Has Obama called the leader of Gaza to tell him to stop all this nonsense? I am sure has not and will not do a damn thing. Just let me know when he blames all this on some video or some insult to Islam.

A cousin of mine who voted for Obama said that Bibi Netenyahu start a war if Romney was elected. Well, Obama was elected and the Gazans have started a war. But, I am sure my dear cousin would say otherwise.

Notice that I said Gazans and not Palestinians.

Netenyahu will do what is necessary to defend his country. Dont’ count on Obama to do what is necessary to do to defend the United States, just remember Benghazi. Obama blamed a stupid video while standing at the United Nations podium, when he knew darn well the video had nothing to do with the murder of our Libyan ambassador.

SC.Charlie on November 15, 2012 at 12:18 PM

I hope none of those weapons being used against Israel are part of the ex Gadaffi harvest and have been smuggled to Hama and Hezbollah by our CIA working out of Benghazi. It would certainly be a reason for our WH to stonewall what they were doing. Susan Rice and Samantha Powers are both adamantly anti-Israel.

Hama=Hamas.

a capella on November 15, 2012 at 12:22 PM

A few facts if the worst happens to Israel:

1) God will never allow the Jews to be annihilated

2) The Jews have been been removed from Israel many times throughout history

3) God is in control of all events

Saying that – While I think we should help our allies and should help Israel, I’m really a little bit over it and know we have MUCH BIGGER problems to deal with here at home.

Update: TA residents heard them land. According to reports, one landed on an empty beach.

Earlier today, Israeli radio reported that police sappers are warning the public not to approached missile shards, as they have detected phosphorus on some of them.

This is not Obama’s fault. This is Netanyahu’s fault…

… and Ehud Barak’s fault
… and Ehud Olmert’s fault
… and Ariel Sharon’s fault
… and Shimon Peres’ fault
… and Yitchak Rabin’s fault
… and even Yitzchak Shamir’s and Menachem Begin’s fault.

We in Israel should have put an end to this long ago. We still can but the Israeli government no longer believes in itself and in Israel being a Jewish homeland.

Everyone eligible in the house mailed in absentee ballots for Romney.

After the election, we still don’t know who is overall more stupid, based on recent years’ history: Israel or the US.

Video: Sirens in Tel Aviv

I was in Tel Aviv one night back in the 1991 Gulf War when the sirens went off and an Iraqi Scud hit about 2 kilometers from where I hit the floor.

Shy Guy, I just saw this on The Times Of Israel website; the IDF has reported it will call up 30,000 reservists in the coming days, as it aims to widen the battle against Hamas in the wake of unrelenting rocket fire. It had earlier said it would carry out a limited call up.
Be safe.

YES! The Lubavitcher Rebbe used to say that Israel conducts its operations against the Arabs like a doctor trying excise a cancer who is instructed to cease and desist at the first sign of blood.
