2. Hamas wont change- schools, mosques, Hospitals
Jae ,   Lynn US   (12.31.08)
are all ok to shoot from or next to and story weapons in. COWARDS WHO KILL THEIR OWN AND EVERYONE ELSES.
3. Judge Advocate-General Avichai Mandelblith
oscar ,   buenos aires   (12.31.08)
is a war criminal.
4. No quarter
J K ,   NYC, USA   (12.31.08)
Now the IDF has the right idea. If they are using mosques are weapon stores and firing positions, then the mosque becomes fair game even under the international law that all the Hamas sympathizers like to wave in Israel's face. And before you wail about how everyone but the responsible Arabs should be dragged to the Hague, I'll be you Israel has launchings and grad rockets being pulled in and out of there on film. Eat it!
5. at least he died :)

7. Finally.
Rob ,   Toronto, Canada   (12.31.08)
I wonder how many goodies they're storing under the Temple Mount mosque?
8. O-No!
Persian TARSIER ,   Toohooran   (12.31.08)
Not mosques,no! And not hospitals, please! Where do you expect them to hide? In their mommys' trousers?
9. #1. AT LEAST HE DIED DOING WHAT HE LOVED
ISRAEL FOREVER ,   BET SHEMESH   (12.31.08)
THANK YOU FOR MAKING ME LAUGH. I REALLY ENJOYED YOUR COMMENT.
10. Before the screams "War Crime" let's get it straight
David ,   Karmiel, Israel   (12.31.08)
The storing of weapons in religious institutions is prohibited by International Law as is the wanton shelling of civilian targets. Hamas has broken International Law, as did Hezbollah in 2006 and committed war crimes over and over again but the International Communities did nothing but sell us out! The EU and the UK are more interested in condemning Israel than they are in the massacres in Dafur and the starvation and murder of the people of Zimbabwe! The foreign press are given all the information but only show that which their editors get approval from the Arab princes who control the Western media.. We are, once again, on our own and even the Jews in the USA, the UK and Europe are putting their heads in the sand! Israel rescues Jews in distress but Jews turn a blind eye when she is being dragged through the mud and being sold out! At least, for the time being, the Bush Administration is standing by us. How long? Time will tell.
11. Kol Hakavod
Michael ,   Canada   (12.31.08)
God bless Israel, its soldiers and civilians. The free and civilized world admires you, wish you success and stand by you. Do not despair by comments made by all these anti-semites. Their comments means a lot more about them than about Israel.
12. The gloves are off
AP ,   Canada   (12.31.08)
The IDF has to be consistent and go all the way !
13. finally! kol hakavod l' IAF!

Kevin ,   Tokyo   (12.31.08)
Hurry Martyrs, last chance to reach paradise!
15. oscar (#3)
noel ,   ny, usa   (12.31.08)
it would seem that a facility used to store and fire weapons and house combatants is a military facility, even if it looks like (or was at one time used) as a house of worship.
16. Sigh.... Now it's time for people to learn Int'l Law
The Business   (12.31.08)
http://www.unhchr.ch/html/menu3/b/92.htm Article 27 Protected persons are entitled, in all circumstances, to respect for their persons, their honour, their family rights, their religious convictions and practices, and their manners and customs. They shall at all times be humanely treated, and shall be protected especially against all acts of violence or threats thereof and against insults and public curiosity. Women shall be especially protected against any attack on their honour, in particular against rape, enforced prostitution, or any form of indecent assault. Without prejudice to the provisions relating to their state of health, age and sex, all protected persons shall be treated with the same consideration by the Party to the conflict in whose power they are, without any adverse distinction based, in particular, on race, religion or political opinion. However, the Parties to the conflict may take such measures of control and security in regard to protected persons as may be necessary as a result of the war. Article 28 The presence of a protected person may not be used to render certain points or areas immune from military operations. I hope these aren't too many big words for some of our other talkbackers....
17. Addendum
The Business   (12.31.08)
Article 29 The Party to the conflict in whose hands protected persons may be is responsible for the treatment accorded to them by its agents, irrespective of any individual responsibility which may be incurred.
18. mosque struck
Mark Katzman ,   San Francisco, USA   (12.31.08)
that's unfair-all of those hamasniks in the mosque got an express ticket to allah and all of those raisins, or virgins-well, they got an express ticket to somewhere (maybe where arafish is-with el diablo).
19. oscar , ..buenos aires
charles   (12.31.08)
yes, shooting missiles at civilian jews from mosques is a war crime
20. Last Joke from Gaza !!!!
Ali ,   GAZA   (12.31.08)
No moer targets ... 2 minutes ago two money exchange offices were attacjed by Israeli graet air forces !!!!
21. Shortcut To Paradise
Bill Foonman ,   Jacksonville USA   (12.31.08)
Do these Hamas losers who hide their weapons and explosives in "houses of worship" take a shortcut to paradise when the IAF takes them out? What measures is Islam taking to ensure there are enough virgins to go around?
22. Bravo from Italy
Roscio ,   Rome, Italy   (12.31.08)
Chaverim, the Jews of Italy are 100% behind you as well.... and so are the leaders of the Italian Government. The front page editorial from Corriere della Sera, the nation's top newspaper, backs Israel all the way. Forza, Israele! Chazak, Yisrael!
23. 10 David - Jews all over support Israel
S Judah ,   London   (12.31.08)
what's this head in the sand business? Many of us have close family in Israel , in the army and in targeted areas.
24. It is patently obvious
Sagi ,   Israel   (12.31.08)
from the photo that the editor of the article does not know the meaning of the English verb "to raze"
25. To 20 What do you mean? We still have you to hit!
The Business   (12.31.08)
26. Defend Civilization or else ....
G ,   NV, USA   (12.31.08)
There are many of us NON-JEWS here in the USA who support you. I tried to sign up for the IDF via the internet or to somehow be allowed to fight but I'm told "thanks, but no thanks." I'll pay for my airplane ticket to get over there AND DEFEND CIVILIZATION. You're either for civilization or against, that's really all it comes down to. I'm so sick of these terrorists. What was g_d thinking when he created these creatures?
27. #10 David
David ,   USA   (12.31.08)
What evidence do you have that the Jews in America are hiding their heads in the sand? I am here and I see and hear what is going on. I've observed nothing but support from American Jews. BTW, American Christians are your greatest support even though we are most hated of all people by many in Yisrael. When I say Christians, I don't mean those who preach replacement theology but those who truly see Yhudi as our brothers.
28. 20# You might want to find a new profession.
Steven Wilson ,   Anchorage, Alaska   (12.31.08)
Who needs money in a war zone. Were you planning on paying someone to clean up the mess that Hamas created by starting a war with Israel?
29. prove it>>??
logic ,   nonse land, il   (12.31.08)
prove it, liars! you bombed a university, schools, homes, mosques, to gain more votes!! prove it by the way, the videos posted on you tube by IDF were doctored and houses near the targets were removed!! they disabled comments!!
30. #20 AKA Terror Funding Offices
Cynthia ,   USA   (12.31.08)
Ali, I wish we could laugh about this but it's no laughing matter. Most people are scratching their heads wondering what was Hamas thinking. Do you really think you can bomb the hell out of Israel and expect mercy?????
