The IDF has begun it's ground offensive against Gazza, I suspect this is the beginning of the "new reality" Israel has promised. http://www.aljazeera.com/news/middl...gaza-ground-invasion-2014717192054899505.html Let us hope that they do not kill any more young children in a "terrible" mistake http://www.itv.com/news/update/2014-07-17/israeli-airstrikes-against-children-a-terrible-mistake/. Anyone want to suggest what this "New Reality" will be?.
Good for Israel. I got an alert from CBS but there wasn't anything except a video that was useless. Thanx for posting the Aljazeera link.
I wish the best for all IDF forces, do your job and come home safe! Kill as many invadors a possible? those are 20 year old boys, going in order for 1 purpose which is to find and destroy Hamas terror tunnels that danger Israeli citizens which is a very reasonable target so stop talking smack about our brave soldiers.
"Terrorism is different from other forms of conflict in that the violent tactics are not meant to lead to a military victory. Terrorist insurgent groups are fairly small with limited resources. Consequently they would have no chance against a national security force in a military confrontation. Instead terrorist acts are meant as catalysts to political change. The most common goal is to turn a nation's citizens against the government in order to facilitate a political change. " http://www.towson.edu/polsci/ppp/sp97/terror/goals.html
The Jews should just let the rockets fly into their communities. They have no right to defend themselves.
Godspeed Israel and good luck in rooting out those medieval Hamas murderers whom you said in another thread you don't support...Right?
To be honest I think they should have sent their land forces in instead of air and artillery strikes. Although I'd only do that if I knew where all rocket stocks were.
Brave? the lot are a bunch of flower pressing gay boys. Brave is keeping your head in a dangerous situation, not murdering children with a fighter jet. Frankly, I'd like so see SAM sites and dead IDF murderers. One hopes, as Israeli troops move in, they get out of their tanks so they can be shot like the rabid dogs they are.
I can see that you have your values a bit skewed as you figure those who hide in their kids toy boxes, schools, UN Charity organization facilities, hospitals and under their women's skirts in order to shoot rockets at women and children are free from any condemnation. Your words and insults to the brave IDF mean little.
It's the humanity in them that stops them from employing Caesar's concept of Total War as he did to conquer Gaul highlighted by the completely relevant Battle of Alesia; http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Alesia
This. Oh they can't eliminate them entirely, but Israel should just take over Gaza fully and eliminate the Palestinian/Hamas government of that area. Anything less is just going to have this happen again in the future. Stop the blockade of Gaza, just integrate it fully into Israel.
Palestinians worship Terror and death. If Hamas will be eliminated, Al Queda will take over.. Arabs hate Palestinians the most, next to Jews.
This time for the armed arm of HAMAS it will be ... GAME OVER on the other hand, Israeli authorities are saying they are not going to destroy HAMAS [as political party and social organization]. I guess the global strategy is comparable with the one run in Northern Ireland: to disengage the political party form the terror organization. The problem is that this requires a certain involvement of popular support ... Let's wait and see.
I can agree with you about Hamas, but of course the IDF were created by murdering, Zionists terrorists who killed their own kind in a publicity stunt, and who pretty much carried out the first modern terrorist attack so I hope they kill each other, the more the better. Just so long as they leave the innocent alone, especially those like the children the IDF killed playing football on a beach.
My words don't insult the nasty little dogs of the IDF even close enough. The world would be a better place if the lot were killed off.
Brave. Protecting their country from those who wish to harm, from those who wish to kill it's citizens, from those who wish us gone. Brave soldiers, men and women who are prepared at every minute to risk their lives to protect their country, their family, their friends and their people. Brave soldiers who go in a hostile teritory to bring terror to it's knees. Their not going in to kill citizens, their going in to prevent the killing of citizens. You think Israel can't destory Hamas's missile storages from airestrikes? they can, but it would require the death of many palestinians, that's why those brave soldiers are going in there, to destroy those storages by hand and prevent the killing of hundreds of innocent men and women. IDF murderes? most of the soldiers going in Gaza have never participated in a battle or wat before, never shot a live rifle at terrorists, murderes? IDF is the most human army in the history of the world. When germany was attacked, 100,000 died overnight, when japanese were attacked 200,000 died in a hindsight, when palestinians are attacked 2000 times, 200 people are dead. 1 dead every 10 airstrikes, I feel sorry for every innocent life taken, but in war there are casualties.
