Israeli assault targets symbols of Hamas power

[bhajishah 4]

Yes but the wars that are fought in the name of GOD are by far most the bloodiest and hardest won. ask the RUssians....

[HAL 9000 96]

No kidding. It is just stupid when people bring their deities into human affairs. For **'s sake. If there is a god, he/she/it has no bearing on the outcome of either battle or visa processes. VJ sheesh.

If they want to believe that God will save them, it's fine by me - let them believe what they want.

Well yes... once they're dead and all.

Thanks for your reply. The last paragraph of my post was meant only as a personal note about my experiences with Kodiak bears...not anything related to the issue at hand. The mention of Kodiak bears in the second paragraph of my post is meant to encourage you to read up on the history of the Israeli/Palestinian conflict in order to put it into context.

PS...I've never seen a grizzly bear in the wild. How about you? I have seen two-year-old Kodiak bear cubs in the wild...and they were bigger than any brown bear I've ever seen while hiking here in Washington State!

No problem Pangga. I'm afraid I missed the second paragraph, and you are quite correct.

I'm afraid I've only seen our big furry friends in zoos, not in the wild. Then again, I don't know how close I'd really want to get to one!!!

Bah... Da Bears suck.

I can agree with this statement.

Hamas- NOT the Palestinian people. I believe that democratic vote for Hamas in the past was a punishment vote against the previous Palestinian Authority for its lax attitude at not pushing enough for Palestinian rights.

I disagree. If the people of Gaza voted Hamas in because the other guys "didn't push enough",

they are not merely uninvolved bystanders in the war against Israel. They cast their vote

and now must face the consequences.

[chaishai 1]

if you believe in GOD it really doesn't matter if you have a good weapons or not

Israel had the best weapons in the world before 1973

USA was helping and supporting Israel with Weapons and with everything they needed .

and no one was helping Egypt and we had so older weapons then them

but with our believing and with our trust in GOD we beat the legend of Israel in 6 days and they were crying to USA asking them to tell Egypt to stop the war and we kicked their butts our of Egypt forever .

I think you got your wires crossed here mate.

Israel kicked Egypt's butt, as well as Jordan's, Syria's and other nations (Tunisia, Algeria, Iraq, Sudan, Saudi Arabia)

that contributed troops and arms.

Israel captured the Gaza Strip and Sinai from Egypt, the West Bank from Jordan, and the Golan Heights from Syria,

all in 6 days.

It was so bad, your Arab buddies call this humiliating defeat al-Naksah ("temporary setback")

yeah it happened and thats right we call it like that .but where are they now???

but do you know what Israel call that day when Egypt kicked their butt outta Egypt ?????

believe it or not mate someday there will not be something called Israel

I wish Immigration would read this #######, figure out who HOTGUY is and not let this ####### into our country. Disgusting.

Yeah... OK.

I guess those that voted for Bush must be fearful of reprisals for having so much blood on their hands in Iraq then.

Same weak logic, M.

I hear you; however in our country we do have something called "The First Amendment"

which gives everyone here the right to say whatever they want to say - including

Hot Guy's hate speech.

Absolutely.

When are the Hamas going to realize it's not in their best intrest to ** with Israel?!!!

It's like poking a Kodiac bear with a stick... all you do is piss 'em off!

Are you saying that Hamas' rockets which killed no Israelis warrented killing over 300 Palestinians? How many Palestinian lives are worth one Israeli life?

HUH ???

You did just say that no Israelis were or have been killed by hamas' rockets attacks. You really need to do some updated reading and research on that incorrect statement.

Sorry, but no country anywhere in this world (especially Israel) would let terrorists launch rockets into their country and just sit back and say "Hit Me One More Time" and not do anything about it. Did the U.S. just sit back and do nothing when we were attacked on September 11 or when the Japs bombed Pearl Harbor...... I don't think so.

Israel is really "pissed off" at Hamas and I don't blame them for doing what they have to do. Unfortunately in war people live and people die.... It's really sad, but Hamas is to blame for their own civilian deaths. None of this would have happened if they had just quit teasing and poking that Kodiac Bear

i think you are the one who needs to do some updated cause he was almost close

as matter of fact Hamas rockets just killed one Israeli women thats all and Israel killed 350 Palestinian so far just in 3 days

NO, I don't need to get some update..... I always check my facts and do my reading before making a true statement. YOU ARE INCORRECT, more than 1 Israeli has been killed in the past 3 days by the missiles launched into Israel by hamas.

How many Israelis died from Hamas' rockets that were launched before Israel started this slaughter of Palestinians? Please provide your source.
