ISRAEL CAN DEFEND ITSELF WITH OR WITHOUT THE USA OR THE UN. Soon Israel will take back their promised land and that includes parts of Lebennon,Syria, all of Jordan,part of Saudi Arabia,Gaza,and the West Bank.

Unrwa should be exposed for allowing or at least turning a blind eye for hamas terrorists use of u.n compounds and facilities for attacks on the Idf .Unrwa just as guilty as hamas terrorists

I used to support israel. No more. As far as I am concerned..,Israel can go to hell. Israel is killing hundreds of women and defenseless children in Gaza..., and Israelis are happy. The world is transfixed with outrage towards Israel. Israelis are behaving like monters. Israel could have made peace with Hamas or a hudna and instead choose to massacre children and women. Outrageous.

.. everyone knows that israel planned this conflict by deliberate provocation and intimidation - israel broke the ceasefire and its 'leaders' are now war criminals.

so expect no better behavior from them.

ahmadinejad to give the new years speech on national tv. So why should we be surprised about britain's pro-arab and moslem stance in the UN.

Ipsos poll reveals 44% of Americans blame Hamas for conflict while only 14% blame Israel And you don't understand that the relationship between the US and Israel is a totally symbiotic one. The US needs Israel as much as Israel needs the US. Sorry to burst your balloon. Mike

There are possible reasons for maintaining the Security Council although they are not very compelling ones but the General Assembly is way past its sell-by date and needs to be scrapped. At best it achieves nothing and at worst it flames the flames of hatred. Time to get rid of it and maybe Obama will have the courage to stop the US's funding of it which would effectively be its death knell. Mike

we are assuming the Israeli news info is no stranger to the truth. A coin may be viewed from more than 3 independent views

Maria, Don't lump all Christians into one boat with you. We are all clearly NOT behind Israel. I myself am Christian, and I know it isn't Christ's position to drop bombs on children. Just because you think it's okay doesn't mean we all do. Speak for yourself and not for all Christians of America. . I for one take offense to Israel's killing innocent children in Gaza.

You're ignorant of the Hamas history...that's all I can say. Terrorism is wrong and shooting rockets to Israel is not right.If you don't want to see those Palestinians not being hurt, the Hamas or the UN should have evacuated them to Egypt, so that Israel can finish its job, with those civilians present there,it won't be able to finish it.Calling yourself a Christian, it doesn't mean you're a Christian, it should be more that. Constantine legalized Christianity many years ago, it didn't mean that they're true Christians.Are you converted or just a professed Christian?
