1. can this number be traced
fish israel   (01.14.09)
from which they send their messages? Mossad, Shabak, anyone?
2. They're desperate - keep pressing Israel!!
AJ ,   Washington, DC   (01.14.09)
3. Anonymous Text Messages:
M. Hartley ,   Atlanta, US   (01.14.09)
Another inventive strategy from the Gaza Resistance Room! Next thing you know they'll invite every high school and college kid on MySpace and Facebook to be their friend and Israel will just have to concede to the sheer numbers :-)
4. #3 what is this silly and stupid talkbak !!!?
(01.14.09)
5. Psychological warfare, and pretty
Sammy ,   Tel Aviv   (01.14.09)
crappy, but then what can you expect from these lunatics?
6. oooo terrorism
Jacob Erickson ,   Tel Aviv Israel   (01.14.09)
I think the subject says it all, because I'm sure anyone that received this text message said to themselves, "wow, these hamas guys must be tough, I'm going to just move out of the country now"... that or just rolled over and went back to sleep.... either way... oooooo terrorism
7. So what? Delete it and continue to sleep.
John ,   Europe   (01.14.09)
It's Hamas, after all, that spent money for this SMS. More SMS - less bullets to buy.
8. SMS from Gaza via UK
Barbara ,   Haifa Israel   (01.14.09)
Remember, people, our boys had to relinquish their cellphones before entering Gaza, so these messages are not personal. Only randomly picked.
9. desperate act...
smith   (01.14.09)
10. Save a son, kill a terrorist
Lednah ,   Europe   (01.14.09)
11. To #4
M. Hartley ,   Atlanta, US   (01.14.09)
Not any sillier and more stupid than for Hamas to send anonymous text messages or for people not to show their name and location in talkbacks :-)
12. it's interesting that
lw ,   London   (01.14.09)
the terrorists send these creepy messages, but when Israel calls residents in Gaza and Lebanon, and drops leaflets warning people to leave the area or stop hiding or firing weapons - that's called psychological warfare. it's no more than I expected that people in England are working for Hamas, their protests here turned very violent
13. To Nava

8:52AM is early in the morning for you? Your life is honey.
14. a few choice words to the sender of this SMS
(01.14.09)
those choice words are: We are standing with our IDF and Our IDF is womping you into a total pulp!
15. Did those UK ISA"volunteers" write it for them
Alan ,   SA   (01.14.09)
16. Judging by the English - a British person is behind this.
Tahl ,   Ashdod, Israel   (01.14.09)
To quote one of the posts in the Hebrew ynet: There is no way an ordinary Palestinian can write without any spelling errors, and certainly not manufacture a phrase like "the least of which", even after many years of studying English. No doubt a native Brit is involved here. But is anyone really surprised of this?
17. To Tahl, #16
Jew ,   Israel   (01.14.09)
Plenty of Muslims grew up in Britain and speak and write perfect English.
18. Look offshore
eh-oop ,   UK   (01.14.09)
Given co-operation, almost certainly traceable. The web tells you it's an Isle of Man network number. Also, there was a problem with it three years ago in relation to a consumer offer. That may point to the type of organisation to which it is registered.
19. Early morning
yos   (01.14.09)
since when is 8:52 early in the morning? GET A JOB NADAV!
20. Only Surprise Is How Inept + Cowardly Hamas Has Been
Seth ,   Washington, DC   (01.15.09)
