1. Millions of Arabs in Gaza Very Challanging
Zechariah   (08.26.14)
Although there is Singapore and Hongkong they don't Rocket Malaysia or Mainland China or deny The Empire of Japan's Atrocities in WW2 or the Mistakes of the Maoist Era or the Rule of the Chinese Nationalists.Arabs and Islam deny many applaud the Shoah particularly in times of War.So only the Harsh Reality of Death Horrific Injury and Deprivation Bring Short Truces.
2. NO USA Draft
Mark ben Josef ,   USA   (08.26.14)
The US should get out of the proposal business unless it is a Chapter 7 UNSC resolution. If there is to be a Chapter 7 resolution, the resolution should have military forces, equally objectionable to both sides, lined up and ready to go in to enforce the resolution against the will of both sides. Those forces should not include Americans or Russians. And any UN Force in Gaza should have its own Air Force and Navy and anti-air capabilities and anti-rocket and anti-mortar capabilities.
3. Hamas is running out of rockets and now wants a ceasefire!
michael redbounrn ,   Aveiro - Portugal   (08.26.14)
Why would Israel have any interest in a ceasefire that would simply allow Hamas to get stronger and attack again? Israel just called up an additional 10,000 soldiers and I hope that they will now enter the hornet's nest and destroy it!
4. W/o demilitarization + demise of Hamas - no truce !
barbara ,   Haifa Israel   (08.26.14)
5. The UN, Pernilla Ironside, and Isaiah
DvorahTheProphetess ,   SC, USA   (08.26.14)
At the age of 63, I reflect back 50+ years to the brilliant maneuvers of the UN: "Trick or Treat for UNICEF!" glomming $$$$$'s and brainwashing us little kids into truly believing that the UN was a just and righteous organization; and oh how lucky we were to be a part of this wonderful effort? Now older and much wiser, I see them for who they are: a cadre of manipulating, scheming scammers and above all, zealous Jew- haters, with a certain Miss Pernilla Ironside currently at the helm. How ironic that the words of JEWISH ISAIAH are etched into the granite of their front facade.
6. Kerry's involvement means trouble for Israel
Devorah   (08.26.14)
It always does.
7. Mike Whites Facebook Propaganda
Claude ,   UK and Cape Town   (08.26.14)
Actually most UK opinion, certainly in mainstream media, but more importantly in polls conducted indicate that public opinion does now see a clear similarity between Hamas and ISIS . Infact the great tragedy for Palestinians is how most Western Public Opinion see all Arabs, Islam generally as extreme, uncompromising, nihilistic and medieval. Does not mean they approve of IDF strategy, but that is not the same as being sympathetic to Palestinians and their Political Masters The rise and actions of ISIS have done more harm to Palestine
8. A ceasefire with whom? It's not as if
Harry   (08.26.14)
Hamas/Palestinians have a state and a government and you can talk sensibly and rationalize with them. For terrorists ceasefire means that Israel cease firing back. After the UN and EU will have made a ceasefire with ISIS in Iraq or Syria they should come back and try it on Hamas/Palestinians.
9. Instead of forcing Israel into another dangerous ceasefire
Chaim ,   Israel   (08.26.14)
the US should replace the IDF with their own troops and take care of Hamas.
10. USA feeling left out?
jrebecca ,   Modiin   (08.26.14)
11. US works with everyone BUT Israel.
BUILD BY BUILD !!!!   (08.27.14)
Typical Arab Muslim behavior from obama. Gaza is a waste land filled with human waste, despair and no water to drink. My, my, and Hamas calls that a 'victory.' Hilarious. One rocket fired from Gaza and, game on. SMASH AND RUIN GAZA!!!!
12. # 7 Claude name one good thing about Hamas or ISIS
BUILD BY BUILD !!!!   (08.27.14)
dare ya! Nothing but death, destruction, lies and pain. Death to Israel's enemies.!!!!!
