damage and more money to spend for illegal weapons.Aren't they crazy? The Arabs said they won? Only backward people could believe that? right? Well said, by the way.

Are you from the Philippines?I'm from Pamp. Ceasefire means victory to the Hamas, I think. Nazrallah did the same thing also in Lebanon War.Israel can't finish its job bacause of the UN and the rest of the world are controlling her. I trully believe Israel has won every war since she became an independent nation, even in the Bible time anyway.The Arab media did a great job , using Palestinian victims photos for propaganda so that the world will sympathize with them.Hamas and Hezbollah won the PR indeed.

Ahmadinejad....do you want to be like King Nebuchadnezzar? You Arabs, when are you going to learn? You thought oil won' t dry up, it will someday.

Their leaders thought they won the war. They lost, Iran will spend a lot of money to build Gaza.

If the Palestinians will take an exam in another country on Israel History/Geography, they will fail big time.They won't be able to locate Israel on the map because Israel is missing in their textbook.

Attention all Jihadists: I know that about now with Israel letting Hamas' terrorists off the hook in Gaza you're thumping your chests and whoopin' it up. But before the party gets rolling let's do a reality check. You're pretty good at killing Jewish women, children and defenseless men, and at using your own women and children as shields. But in a real fight when you dare to come out of your rat holes, you're pretty mediocre. You talk a good game and your propaganda is outstanding. However, that has more to do with the media and the left wing in the West doing your public relations for you. More importantly, though, how is this going down with The Big Guy Upstairs? Jihadists, you pretend to be pious. You look seriously at the camera and spout pseudo-religious nonsense. But when it comes to values, things that the Big Guy Upstairs counts, you thugs are rock-bottom deficient. You teach your children to hate and to kill people who are different from you. You oppress and abuse women and minorities. You use G-d's name to justify territorial expansion, mass murder, torture, slavery, theft, immorality, dishonesty, brutality, bigotry and discrimination. And the list goes on and on. He can't possibly be happy with you. Jihadists, you may be having fun now, but you got a world of hurt waiting for you when your time is done.

HOW CAN HAMAS BE SO IGNORANT TO THINK THEY "WON THIS WAR" WHEN THEY KILLED HUNDREDS OF THEIR OWN CIVILIANS THRU HIDING IN THEIR HOMES, MOSQUES, ETC.??? IF THEY "WON", I'D HATE TO SEE A WAR IN WHICH THEY "LOST". THEY ARE KILLING THE POOR PALESTINIAN PEOPLE THRU THEIR LUST FOR BLOOD!

The Lebanese border was relatively quiet because of the Lebanese military. Now that Hezbullah is part of the government, they kept Hezbullah on a leash. Lebanon doesn't want a redux of 2006. I bet Iran never apologized to Lebanon for turning the country into a graveyard.

I would just like to tell the Jews, who are reading these articles, that there are several countries who support Israel - my country, Denmark, being one of them. Most of us recognize that Israel has been bombed incessantly by Hamas for more than 7 years, and that no other militarily superior nation would have been as patient and generous as the government of Israel has been. We also realise that Israeli forces have had no option in the civilian Palistinian casualties, as Hamas hide behind their own women and children and do not care as much about the welfare and lives of the people as about their cause (which was described very well by Ahmadinejad: "wipe Israel off the face of the earth", who at least had the guts to admit that's what he wanted). The danger is that the media is often one-sided. Nobody likes civilian casualties, and then most forget to think rationally. If someone were to throw a torch at you, you wouldn't hold up a baby to catch it. Hamas would, and they do. They hide behind their own, and so they kill their own, no matter how everyone else puts it. We support Israel. Never forget that.

Thanks to Denmark for saving her all Jews during the Holocaust.I read all about it .

No one is a winner. I feel badly that innocent Palestinian civilians were caught in the crossfire, but how is this Israel's fault? If you will remember, Hamas is a terrorist group and it has been documented that they just like Hezbollah exploit these poor civilians by using them as "human shields". Sounds to me like those Palestinians on the side of Hamas are misguided. It is obvious to me and the Western World that they have no regard for human live--even Palestinian life. If they had regard for Palestinian life, they would not have put their own at risk to fuel such blind hatred against the Jews. Might I add in closing, that Hamas never did honor the cease fire brokered by Egypt. It is common knowledge, that for years now, Hamas has continued to fire rockets into Southern Israel, specifically targeting innocent Israeli civilians. Israel for years practiced commendable self restraint in not retaliating. So, answer me this. Why is it acceptable for Israel to sit there and allow herself to bombed and not retaliate? She is merely doing what any country would do, protecting herself and her people. According to article 51 of the U.N. Charter, Israel was well within her rights to protect herself and has not used excessive force. Terrorism is totally unaccpetable; totally unacceptable. People have the right to live in peace, whether they be Israelis, or Palestinians. It is ironic and appalling that the news coverage--even Western news coverage is biased almost giving credence to a terrorist group like Hamas. What the media has failed to convey--I believe it to be a deliberate omission--is that Israel has repeatedly said they targeted Hamas strongholds, operatives, and informants not the poor civilians. Might I also add that Israeli planes dropped leaflets warning the civilians to evacuate? Might I also add that Israel has opened up her hospitals to those Palestinians injured and did allow humanitarian to enter Gaza? Might I also add that the majority of those Palestinians killed were Hamas operatives? These facts alone don't convey to me that Israel purposely targeted innocent Palestinians civilians. Am I missing something?
