CSK Fan Posted November 14, 2012 Posted November 14, 2012 http://edition.cnn.com/2012/11/14/world/meast/gaza-israel-strike/index.html?hpt=hp_t1 Israel launched a series of blistering air strikes Wednesday on what it says are terrorist targets in Gaza, killing the chief of Hamas' military wing and at least eight others, Israeli and Palestinian officials said. Palestinian leaders immediately condemned the attacks as an escalation, with President Mahmoud Abbas calling for an emergency session of the Council of the League of Arab States to discuss what he called Israeli "aggression," the Egyptian state news agency MENA reported. Hamas' military wing warned that Israelis had opened "the gates of hell on themselves" with the move. A report on the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) website said Brig. Gen. Yoav Moredechai would not rule out a ground attack. "Infantry brigades have been shifted in preparation for the operation," he said, according to the website. Israeli military spokeswoman Lt. Colonel Avital Leibovich said: "There are some reserve units that are preparing but nothing more than that at this point." There were at least 35 airstrikes in an eight-hour span, Hamas security sources said. As night fell, more air strikes could be heard, and Hamas security officials said four more attacks hit empty swaths of farmland in Gaza late Tuesday. Map: Israel Map: Israel Israel's Iron Dome air defense system intercepted 17 rockets launched at Israel in the span of a few hours, the IDF said, and a rocket struck a shopping center in a major city in southern Israel. The IDF said at least 130 rockets had been fired from Gaza since Saturday. Hamas chief killed Are we in store for a kinder Hamas? Palestinian medical sources said nine people died in the Israeli air strikes, including a young girl, and 35 others were wounded, with 10 in serious condition. However, the health minister in Gaza, Mufid al-Mukhalalati, put the death toll at seven, including two young girls. The dead included Ahmed al-Ja'abari, the popular and influential head of the Hamas military wing, and his son, the group said on its website. The Israeli operation -- which the military calls "Operation Pillar of Defense" -- came after Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu warned this week of pending retaliation by Israel for increased rocket attacks from Gaza. "I would ask you, I'd ask any person around the planet: What would you do if your population was targeted day after day?" Israeli government spokesman Mark Regev told CNN, later adding that "you have to see our operation as fundamentally defensive." Egypt recalled its ambassador to Israel on Tuesday, the Israeli Foreign Ministry said. The United States said Israel has the right to defend itself, according to a statement from the State Department. "We strongly condemn the barrage of rocket fire from Gaza into southern Israel, and we regret the death and injury of innocent Israeli and Palestinian civilians caused by the ensuing violence," the statement said. "There is no justification for the violence that Hamas and other terrorist organizations are employing against the people of Israel. We call on those responsible to stop these cowardly acts immediately."

Clarke Posted November 15, 2012 Posted November 15, 2012 Nothing substantial going by their standards. The killings of Iranian nuclear scientists is a much bigger achievement. Then again, one of the most powerful men in Syria (their sworn enemy) in the early 1960s was an Israeli spy.

Texy Posted November 15, 2012 Posted November 15, 2012 Riot brewing on the other site over this.... I always wondered if Palestine didn't have 20 kids per family, be more developed, focused on education instead of religious blind hatred and brainwashing, focus on rebuilding the place using peace and dialogue instead of be involved in Munich Olympics tragedy type event, used non violent methods to garner world wide attention to their cause...wouldn't it have been a lot better for them? Also, always wondered what would be the implications if Palestine & neighboring Arab countries had similar military capability as Israel.

Crookbond Posted November 15, 2012 Posted November 15, 2012 Journalist’s 11-month-old son killed in Gaza strikes An Israeli round hit Misharawi’s four-room home in Gaza Wednesday, killing his son, according to BBC Middle East bureau chief Paul Danahar, who arrived in Gaza earlier Thursday. Misharawi’s sister-in-law was also killed, and his brother wounded. Misharawi told Danahar that, when the round landed, there was no fighting in his residential neighborhood. “We’re all one team in Gaza,” Danahar told me, saying that Misharawi is a BBC video and photo editor. After spending a “few hours” with his grieving colleague, he wrote on Twitter, ”Questioned asked here is: if Israel can kill a man riding on a moving motorbike (as they did last month) how did Jihad’s son get killed.” Danahar also shared the following photos of Misharawi’s small Gaza home, which appears to have been heavily damaged. The place where the round punctured his ceiling is clearly visible. http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/worldviews/wp/2012/11/15/the-story-behind-the-photo-journalists-11-month-old-son-killed-in-gaza-strikes/ This is what we need more - war, guns and bombs. Congratulations Palestine and Israel you are beacons of your religion for future generations.
Ranvir Posted November 15, 2012 Posted November 15, 2012 The problem I have with Israel is that they are pretty much invaders. I think the vast majority of them are not native to the land and are from central and Eastern Europe from countries like Germany, Poland, Ukraine, Russia. It's no different to the British taking over India or the British in America. Most of the Israelis do not look middle eastern so what right do they to be there? Just because it was the centre of their religion thousands of years ago? I doubt that they are the same ethnicity as the jews who lived there in ancient times. That's like Buddhists from Thailand taking over North East India and Nepal because that is where Buddha and Asoka were from. The only solution to this now is to create a separate country for the Palestinians.
