as was reported that Hamas leaders execute Palestinians who dare protest against the leadership.

"It ain't necessarily so, It ain't necessarily so. The propagandist gas That you get from Hamas, It ain't necessarily so." (with apologies to G. and I. Gershwin) . . . - THREE CHEERS FOR ISRAEL!!!

The failure continues

Its now 5pm so only 2 hours into the 4 hour ceasefire and at least 10 rockets have been fired into Israel during this 4 hour ceasefire. Why do we go along with this fiasco because a Hamas definition of a ceasefire is Israel stops firing but we continue. Every single short or long term ceasefire agreements we had both agreed to declare has resulted in Hamas firing rockets again within hours of the ceasefire beginning so why does either side bother with this whole fiasco?

I see Israel is starting to concentrate on those areas, such as: Mosques, UN facilities and hospitals. Israel could wipe Gaza out in a day: I think they should! However, I do feel sorry for the innocent, little children whose only fault is having idiotic parents' who voted these terrorists into power. It's a sad reality; but, Israel has to do what it must to stop these godless terrorists from hurting Israeli people and, especially, their children. War is dirty and messy, but it's, at times, a necessary evil. God bless Israel!!!!!!!

But they're too stupid to do this, it's not rocket science is it, pun intended.

cant be destroyed from air. What else targets bombed?!

"We condemn the group or groups who endangered civilians by placing these munitions in our school. This is yet another flagrant violation of the neutrality of our premises. We call on all the warring parties to respect the inviolability of UN property," UNRWA spokesman Chris Gunness said in a statement. And then gave the missiles back to Hamas again, no doubt.

Tell me please "why does the Israeli media take killed and injured figures issued by Israels enemies as true?" As for Israeli government "information", that has never been worth 2 cents.

Bashert is a Yiddish word which has several meanings. One of them is "meant to happen" It was the kidnapping and killing of the 3 Israelis that led to this outbreak of war. As a result the IDF found much to their dibelief just how immense the tunnel systems are. The tunnel system in my view was a long term plan by Hamas to suck the IDF into a ground op and then to be able to have the IDF pinned in between 2 forces of Hamas and fellow Jihadists. Hamas was going to be ready but this kidnapping threw off their schedule. Sorrowfully the 3 Israelis kidnapping and subsequent murder was the BASHERT to have the IDF discover the immensity and potential killiong fields the IDF could have been caught up in.

Is that the weapon that Hamas used to shoot at a clearly yellow marked schoolbus in 2011 ? If so, always mention that, so people know that even before the current action, Hamas already used the Kornet ... to destroy a schoolbus . . . . . . luckily the children just got off, except 1 who was serioslyu wounded

Who is the gaza health authority. And who can verify the qouted numbers. Is it anothe Hamas propaganda agency??

No ceasefires anymore. Bomb Shiva and go for the Hamas Leaders. Kol Hacavod Zahal.

Gaza rockets still coming at Israel, left and right - so where is the ceasefire?

So what's their big problem if we kill a few thousand? We are loving them to death.
