avi ,   haifa   (08.02.10)

Yah! These re the guys in charge of Gaza. Who said ME is boring. Plenty of comedy and action for everyone. These guys will be fighting another 62 years while Israel gets stronger everyday.

region and other weather based discomforts... This is Hamas... as well as its other Muslim-Arab opponents...!!
6. this was an internal explosion
(08.02.10)
in this terrorist's home who was putting together explosives right there with his family and possibly children. what a depraved society. do not blame israel. it had nothing to do with this explosions. usually israel acts and release the information after it attacks. again, this was not israel's doing even if hamas wants to blame it for this internal explosion

12. #9 Hey, Are you silly ?!!
Salma ,   Palestine   (08.02.10)
13. #9 - you must be trying to say something but what is it?
michael redbourn ,   arad - israel   (08.02.10)
Maybe too much kef? Puff puff? Please try again, Mike

15.  He cut the blue wire, instead of the red wire.
USA   (08.02.10)
And then boom happened. It's an occupational hazard.
16. 11. gaza
A ,   Belgium   (08.02.10)
Thats a whole bunch of racist stuff you got there, it really is. Some of it might not even be true. But this one FOR SURE is: "One million Arabs are not worth a Jewish fingernail." I'll have to think about the rest.
17. what a peaceful and compassionate people you all are
Palestine   (08.02.10)
So concerned with the 24 injured, amoung them children. So eager to achieve peace, through such kind words. The world does not need more hate or more wars there is enough. Each of you as individuals have much to learn. I do not mean to sound like I am preaching but war begins with one person and spreads like disease, peace too can begin with just one person. Be that one instead of the one who has a heart full of hate.
18. to #17 what compation got to do with the fact palis
ghostq   (08.02.10)
kill themselves. it's palis hate toward Israel who created these type of explosive labs in the first place, murders need no compation for self inflicted terror.
19. #17 A Good Message For Hamas
Bill Foonman ,   Jacksonville, USA   (08.02.10)
I suggest you take your message to Hamas. Hamas is not a Palestinian group. It is an Iranian Islamic terror cell first and foremost and Palestinian second. Either way, it is hell bent on the complete destruction of Israel. As long as Israel exists and as long as there is a Jewish presence in Israel, there will be conflict. It doesn't matter what Israel does or what concessions it makes, none of it matters.
20. The universal law.
JJ ,   LA   (08.02.10)
When you give out hate it all comes back. These people wanted to kill as many Jews as possible. See what happened to them!
21. To 17 - It's not our responsibility
The Dude   (08.02.10)
The fact was that this man was building an explosive in his home, it went off prematurely and injured 24. So basically by your line of thinking Israel is also responsible by not immediately taking vast concern in this case? The fact was that he was stupid and got what he deserved. We are not the EU where we praise and emphasize with you regardless of your acts. Grow up finally and stop preaching.
22. Rashid
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (08.02.10)
Rashid Palistinian is about as Palestinian as I am (which is to say, not very). I suspect he is Jewish, although I cannot prove it. Whatever his ethnicity or religion, he is funny and his posts are thoroughly a pleasure to read. He has been away for a while, but now he is back, and I am thrilled.
23. #11 - notice all incidents are after the Arab-led genocide
William ,   Israel   (08.02.10)
First, it's important to note that you cited ONLY 14 incidents, and they're not even the same person! I can find 14 incidents of blatant racist comments in "Palestinian" media in less than 1 day!! Second, the earliest incident you noted was 1950....after 30 years of racist attacks on Jews, massacres of Jews, and ethnic cleansing. Not to mention that little genocide thing in 1948! Finally, I read your comments with utter laughter! Half of which are lies and debunked long ago, like #8. Infact, you cited people just because they were Jews, with no connection to Israel, which only underscores your own racism.....which EVERYONE already knows of. Care to guess why you have a blockade around you, no very rich area (living standards better than open Lebanon)?
24. #17 - How can Israelis care more than "Palestinians" do?
William ,   Israel   (08.02.10)
How farcical that you would be outrage by the response of Israelis to a Hamas bomb-maker work accident...but not be concerned by the bigger issue - the utter lack of respect of human life for even their own children. What Hamas did was a war crime and human rights violation, by using their own families as cover for their violent actions. And you silence, and the silence of ALL "Palestinians" prove my claim. The UN is quick to rush to protect terrorists but do nothing to help children, nor utter a word. This is reflected in the posts you see here showing frustration, but in no means is it joy of the children that were injured. Hence, you will not see us handing out candies and driving through town honking horns with delight, as you do when our children are struck down.
25. To: No. 17
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (08.02.10)
Yeah, well, sorry. Eight thousand missiles and all those suicide bombings have blunted our compassion. You're REALLY lucky we still let you live around us. We don't like you and we don't want you and, sooner or later, you're going to have to leave. Oh, wait! That wasn't compassionate, was it? Too damn bad. Deal with it.
26. #17
(08.03.10)
and why should you require the israeli jews to be concerned with the accident of these people in that gaza house? after all, it seems to me that all these people in that same house were preparing bombs and missiles to hit israeli civilian centers and kill, hopefully, in your sick mind, more than 24 innocents. if you do not want to get burnt, please do not play with matches. also, if there were children in that house and women also, what were they doing there when these terrorists were making bombs? didn;t the terrorists have enough brains to place women and children away from terrorism and bomb making? your society is violent, barbaric and depraved. hameed aboughaze, iranian
27. #17
(08.03.10)
do you realize that the bomb he was making in his home was meant to kill jews in israel and ended up killing him and his family instead? how is israel responsible for his actions? do you want the israelis to sympathize with the death of bomb makers who want to kill them? hameed aboughazem iranian
28. Blast in Gaza
Simcha ,   So.Cal.USA   (08.03.10)
Of course Israel must have the blame... who else? Considering the missles lobbed into Israel from Gaza do I really give a rats ass who did it....just one less missle to Israel.
29. where does it say he had bombs? The damage is too much
Palestinian   (08.03.10)
looks like air strikes. here is pictures http://www.worldbulletin.net/news_detail.php?id=62109
