1. gaza people aren't responsible for sinai attacks
gaza teacher ,   Gaza   (08.20.11)
all factions working here denied responsibility for the attacks .... what else you want.......???? your IDF killed a boy sleeping in his home, a doctor and his 2 children..... many buildings providing services to the people have been leveled to ground ....... AGAIN.... WE aren't behind the attacks ......... so why do you want the people here to pay the price for something they are responsible for.........
2. Lull is over?
David ,   America   (08.20.11)
Good! Get on with business Israel! Do your job IDF. There was never a lull anyway.
3. Chechen muslims will always stand against Russian invaders
Chechen muslim ,   RUSSIA   (08.20.11)
does not matter are those invaders Ortodox Christians or Jews.
4. Bring it Hamas!
Sean ,   USA   (08.20.11)
you got no chance.
5. arab with designer schmata
daze ,   US   (08.20.11)
My guess is that arab thugs wear the schmata like the arab in the picture above, because covering the mouth and nose with that flattering,( certainly makes a statement) doo rag impairs oxygen flow to the brain. This might possibly explain why arab thugs act like arab thugs
6. Hamas wants fighting to end?
Shirley ,   Virginia, USA   (08.20.11)
"Hamas’ political leadership appeared intent on allaying tensions in the region and bringing the latest round of fighting to an end" Translation: Oh my - we're getting the stuffing knocked out of us again and need the world to interfer on our behalf, yet again. Note to Hamas: YOU could stop this if you wanted to. So you must want the "escalation." Lie in the bed you made. I hope (and pray) that Israel gives you what you deserve.
7. lull? more like LOL
(08.20.11)
8. Take out the top echelon
Fredrik T ,   Sweden   (08.20.11)
If IDF could bust some of the iranian built bunkers and take out some the top brass of Hamas I think that would send a strong message across to them. And when things wind down somewhat, continue to target the leaders at every occation. Make them sweat!
9. Give them hard IDF
Paul ,   Israel   (08.20.11)
They asked for it, don't let them show their noses, make them miss the sun on they bunkers like the hezbolah rats
10. #1 gaza teacher
solomon ,   bklyn   (08.20.11)
Send your message to Hamas, who hides among and behind you. I feel sorry for the doctor and his children; but you don't seem to care about the eight (8) Israeli civilians [and two soldiers] that were killed. Since Hamas insists on using you as shields, it is them you should speak to. Any country, including Israel, has a right of self defense and cannot ignore murders because terrorists hide behind their own people.
11. Number 1, you voted for them,didn't you?
Igor ,   NYC USA   (08.20.11)
12. Gaza Teacher, #1
Howard Immanuelson ,   US   (08.20.11)
Gaza Teacher, All factions there denied responsibility, what more do we want? How about your terror groups not sneaking into Israel and shooting up a bus and killing as many people as possible? It doesn't make any difference whether your terror groups claim responsibility or not; they still did it. I understand that you aren't behind the attacks but you voted into power a terrorist group that is and Gaza will bear the responsibility for that. Israel doesn't want to hurt innocent civilians but your cowardly terrorists literally hide behind YOU for protection and sometimes innocent people are hurt in the process.
13. Male Burka law should apply in Gaza
Dov ,   USA   (08.20.11)
Cowards.
14. YES! LULL IS INDEED OVER!
Israeli 2   (08.20.11)
No one would cry to see Gaza as the biggest parking lot in the world.
15. Hamass and the UN
Standing Tall ,   USA/Canda   (08.20.11)
At least Israel did not target the doctor and his family, it was an accident. However, you target the civilians and therefore you are committing the war crimes. I am really laughing how the Palestinians are asking the world to stop the massacre. They had no trouble starting the massacre, this time Israel will finish it. UN out of the US. The most useless organization in the world.
16. To Number 1, Gaza Teacher
Ron ,   oc, us   (08.20.11)
Answer to you question: Because you voted hamas as your leadership. Not to mention the obvious: 8 murdered Israelis, all but 1 civilians and the 40 rockets fired collectively at Israeli civilians. Just stating the obvious in case one of your 5th graders ask the same question that you did.
17. #1 and #3
Korem ,   New York, USA   (08.20.11)
To #1, it is very sad that those 3 innocent people died. But israel did not target them, and did not kill them to punish the people of Gaza or fight a war with the people of Gaza. As the article explains the missile was meant to hit a Hamas vehicle, but hit the wrong target. This is horrible, but Israeli military technology is always designed to try to be as precise as possible. Still it will not always work, and Israel would not have to resort to these measures if Hamas did not attack Israel and operate within Gaza and disguise itself within the people of Gaza. to #3, you are just a joke. Israel is not a country of Russians. There were waves of immigrants, Russian, Ethiopian, West European, Middle Eastern, and now even Indian. With all the racial mixing Israel is a very diverse country with people who are light brown and come from many ethnic backgrounds. We Israelis will always stand against ignorant people like you who call us invaders. If you dont know the first thing about Israeli demographics you think you know about Israeli history? You are a joke.
18. yea that is right, gaza your lull is over with
(08.20.11)

19. It is high time Israel targeted the heads of Hamas...
JBI   (08.20.11)
20. #1 Gaza Teacher
BEN JABO ,   ISRAEL   (08.20.11)
I am willing to learn, teach me who is responsible for Gaza attacks that are coming from Gaza Surely, even you must acknowledge that Gaza attacks weren't perpetrated by men from Mars There is an old saying “If it looks like a duck, quacks like a duck, by jingo it’s a duck”
21. Good thing they made clear there was a lull
Mikey   (08.20.11)
Because I couldn't really tell there was one...
22. Take off your mask,you crab!
Anna M Sedda ,   Rome-Italy   (08.20.11)
Show your f..ed face of crap....
23. #1 Hamas sock puppets skilled at denial
Cynthia ,   USA   (08.20.11)
The cowards are afraid the IDF will come after them. In spite of their ridiculous disguises, the IDF still finds them. Save your sob story. These terrorists live within your community. You shelter and support them. Two leaders of the cell that carried out the recent terror attack were found hiding in Gaza.
24. #1 - Your people killed a sleeping family...
William ,   Israel   (08.20.11)
and in Gaza there were parties and candies celebrating it! We don't care if Hamas or PRC admits it publicly. We know they lie to either hide their actions or gain notoriety. Terrorists groups do this all over the world, why are your's any different? Are you going to deny the dozens of rocket attacks in the days before this attack on innocent Israeli civilians came from Gaza. too? Unless you're in Hamas, you DO NOT know nor can you speak for the terrorists in Gaza. If you are against the attacks on Israeli civilians, go out into the street and protest, otherwise you're quietly accepting them and complicit.
25. Lets see how quickly people react to this
Danny   (08.20.11)
Took 5 months for even murmurs from the US about Syria.
26. Message to PM. This your chance to
DT ,   TA Israel   (08.20.11)
unleash hell. Since the UN and Co support terror and are our enemies we have nothing to loose and everything to gain .
27. #14 No one would cry here in Israel
DT ,   TA Israel   (08.20.11)
, well , maybe some of the Left would but mots of the world would be apoplectic but I agree with you. May it happen
28. Hamas’ military wing: Gaza lull over
Yonatan ,   Jerusalem   (08.20.11)
#1 my guess is only dumb teachers teach in gaza
29. dont blame israel : )
Robert ,   farmington,usa   (08.20.11)
I believe some people from gaza are good , but the problem is the pals has a leader that supports terrorist , alot of people in gaza protects terrorist , the pa charter calls for israel destruction ,like the saying goes birds of a feather flock together.. the fact is women and children being killed in gaza is not israel fault. blame the guys that is attacking israeli cities ,buses , with rockets. oh ye the other problem gaza people chose death when they voted for hamas. p.s I know the pa s think about a state they are lucky if they have gaza by the time this is over with.
30. The Gaza tahdiah is over
Mladen Andrijasevic ,   Be'er Sheva, Israel   (08.20.11)
This morning the sirens went off and the whole city took cover in shelters and safe rooms. So what is a sufficient response? It is one after which Hamas stops firing rockets at Israeli civilians. When will that happen and why would Hamas stop firing rockets at Israel? Hamas would do it when it is in accordance with Islamic teaching. Under their theology if the enemy is too strong they can proclaim hudna for 10 years and only after that period expires re-evaluate the possibility of continuing the jihad. But Hamas cannot wait for 10 years so they came up with the term tahdiah which lasts for one year. So the response should be such to make Hamas proclaim tahdiah. The IDF should calibrate accordingly.
