IDF kills Gaza City rocket chief    Hanan Greenberg
1. the Gazans may see this as a challenge
The Islamist death cult members may see the admonition about staying away from weapons storage areas as a challenge. They may WANT to be human shields to demonstrate their religious fervor.

11. The Hamas fight against Israel : A fight to the death.
If we do not understand the present Palestinian violence for what it is - not an effort to end an occupation of some territories but a continuation of the real, original jihad and a fight to the death - then attempts to force an end to the conflict will only help make inevitable the catastrophic conclusion that all but the religious fanatics are dreading. International condemnation of Israel only gives it more power. More about the spirit of Jihad at : http://xrl.us/bebdoa

You're right...dead is dead. Hurt is not dead, only hurt. Maybe dead later but not now.

14. So far, total silence from all Israel-haters in here.
I wonder where "GUH", "observer", "Iran #1", "Tayfun", "Persian Cat", "World Citizen", "Libyan Guy", "John UK", "Peter Morris", "R. Hitchings", "Libaniyyeh", "Jerrold Cohen", "Arik Silverman", "Dave Wilson", "Mikesailor", "AMERICAN", "Tova Chanalau", etc (anybody else I missed?) - have all disappeared to? Haven't they all promised a resounding defeat to the IDF by the mighty Hamas?

15. Another civilian death
AP and Reuters (not know for its pro-Israel stance to say the least!) both reported that it took a while to identify mansi since he was NOT in uniform - in other words, another 'civilian' casualty according to the UN

21. Your comments in this talkback are shameful
You laugh at the death of people . How sick is that? Is this the impression you want the world to get of Israeli's? Surely this is the root of the problem,Israel has grown up to become a nation of Arab haters and then is surprised when the Arabs fight back. Israel is better than this surely if not then Israel is sowing the seeds of it's own destruction. srael never learns from it's mistakes.. Give peace a chance Israel never learns that it cannot win by violence alone. Israel's attempt to force the Palestinian group Hamas to comply with a ceasefire on its terms through its offensive against the Gaza Strip is doomed to fail. The attacks on Gaza would leave Hamas in place it is nothing tangible that you can knock down, it is not a building Israel is repeating the mistakes it made during the 2006 war against HezbollahI am a Christian not a muslim. . I am not a muslim or Islamic sympathiser,I just hate the injustice Israel is inflicting on the Palestinians. I hate violence of any kind ,but I hate injustice even more As to wasting your time I don't care for your obviously biased views. Israel as a concept is dead,the experiment is over,you have blown all the sympathies Israel inherited after the Holocaust the very reason Israel was given land in 1948 Israel has continued to expand and occupy land belonging to the Palestinians .. Israel is a bully and Hamas is just a symptom of people rallying round a group that has the courage to fight back. Israel is the biggest loser ,when will Israel ever learn that violence against the Palestinians will never win their hearts and minds. Show some compassion and then maybe your neighbours will see a more mature country and Israel will then be in peace and no longer under threat the reason for the Israel's regime's existence is being questioned bt the wider community If Israel does not change its approach Israel will be crushed not just by the Arabs but by the international community which once like me respected your country Love your enemies and give peace a chance ...Otherwise Israel will be the one who is wiped out.

22. To John
John, you demonstrate an unbelievable ignorance about the recent history of this conflict where you ignore totally the many, many measures that Israel has taken in order to arrive at a peaceful settlement with the Palestinians. Your post is one long diatribe of rhetoric with no clear facts to qualify your points and making the same mistakes over and over again. The UK is the place that is under threat from Muslim militants... its capital has been targeted and recorded much worse fatalties (in 2005 for example) that my city Tel Aviv. Then there are the thousands of terror suspects which grows and becomes worse by the week, Glasgow bombing, Shoe Bomber, liquid explosive plans to bring down 4 full air planes. Wow, the UK is the place which is under threat and potentially going to become Pakistan II. WE are the ones that understand it here in Israel YOU are the ones that are naive, underestimating and spilt more blood around the world / invented slavery etc. The English.... ha! what a bloodthirsty lot you are. Ask any Iraqi.

23. #18-Joe:haaretz and its talkbacks
haaretz has gone so extremely to the left, posting articles by anti-State writers such as amira hass and gideon levy (who today admitted he admires al jazeera more than any other media) that the Jew-haters need not post: haaretz does it for them!

25. To #21 John
You are an idiot. You need to re-educate yourself and understand what really is going on in this world. The "international community" certainly doesn't understand. They and you live in a fantasy world. The "underdogs" aren't always right. Evil really does exist and it must be dealt with harshly. In Gaza you are seeing a morally debased and corrupt society that sacrifice their children as suicide bombers and you support that. You must be as sick as they are. There isn't a better way to achieve peace at this time than what the IDF is doing by eliminating the threat, so deal with it.

26. Don't ever bite the hand that feeds you
Arie..Is that what you base your opinions on? I know which country jews are happy and free living in ..Great Britain. GB was a refuge to thousands of refugees during WW2 . GB has supported Israeli policy through thick and thin..and this is how you repay us? Don't ever bite the hand that feeds you ,Israel is losing the last few friends it has by acting as you are. Soon you will have no one but yourselves even the States will abandon you and then you will be alone ..
john ,   Great Britain   (01.11.09)
27. #26 John
You are sadly ignorant of GB's colonial history, from the torture of Americans during our Revolution, to the Indian subcontinent, and of course the Middle East. Your Great Britain always pursued an anti-Jewish policy in Mandatory Palestine, so please spare us the "bite the hand that feeds you". There is more blood on British hands than any other country, except possibly Stalin's Russia or Mao's China.
