1. The photo of the chicken coop shows
seadog1946 ,   ArthurKill, NJ   (04.08.11)
the horrendous damage that the gazan rockets inflicted upon those defenseless civilian zionist chickens.
2. take out haniyeh and zohar and their advisors
marcel   (04.08.11)
take out haniyeh and zohar and their significant advisors in multipronged attack. They send their shaheeds butb not them-they hide in tunnels because they don't want to go to allah. They ask for a ceasefire after hitting a civilian bus clearly identified. This is a less than animal culture, they fight amongst themselves and there is no end to it. Peace is not the solution. All out war and removal is the armistice solution. Palestinians have never behaved peacefully in a consistent fashion except for short periods before arafat showed up and under israeli administration.
3. Death penalties for IDF officers , Barak and Nathanyaho
shadi- Gaza ,   Gaza strip   (04.08.11)
I have visited the area where a mother and her daughter were murdered in despicable air strike and witnessed gruesome scenes of blood and lacerated bodies;limbs are thrown everywhere . Barak brags to the Isrealis that his army contiue to incur heavy losses on Gaza militants but in fact his army only kill civilians . all deaths since yesterday are civilians . retaliation ........ retaliation.... retaliation for our civilain deaths .
4. Arabs responsible for civilian deaths !!
Don Rosenberg ,   Palatine USA   (04.08.11)
Israel should use overwhelming force to kill as many terrorists as possible and destroy infrastructure in the gaza terrorist haven. More force is needed to stop the animals. Civilized countries must realize this has to stop NOW. If the civilized world disagrees, the hell with them. Apparently there are no civilized countries ,only cowardly people who give in to arab muslim racist murderers.
5. THE TIME HAS COME
Mike caton ,   USA   (04.08.11)
The time has come for Israel to launch a full-scale WAR on Gaza, with the purpose of KILLING all Hamas terrorists AND their civilian facilitators. Israel must disregard the squeals of the weasels of the EU, the outrage of the anti-semitic UN, and the harsh criticism of Obama, the nominal Muslim. Once Israel re-occupies Gaza, it will be time to make of this thin strip of land, a major Mediteranean international resort, with hotels, shops, cinemas,etc along its wonderful beaches. Those gazans who would like to participate in the new prosperity in the semi-autonomous strip , can do so, and those who wish to immigrate to Italy, France, etc, can also do so.
6. what else can be said...
Dino Domingo ,   Vancouver, Canada   (04.08.11)
if Hamas wants to be cowards and use innocent people as human shields then it has to be considered a casualty of war when people get bombarded! bomb the living hell out of them and if they don't stop then keep bombing!
7. EU, NATO complain of human shields
Dean ,   US   (04.08.11)
as they continue to bomb and shoot their enemy in Libya, Pakistan and Afghanistan . The UN and others say nothing. Israel needs to decimate and decapitate Hamas and the enemy in Gaza
8. hamas WANT innocent bystanders to die, it's good PR
david ,   uk   (04.08.11)
9. after killing ours, hamas trow the blood of its children
STEPHAN ,   YAFFO   (04.08.11)
in our face and use it in the media with no shame. innocent people pay 4 hamas/iran war on israel and no one can rejoice or be not sensitive for loss of life. this is the path of death, the path of islamo fascim. they will not succeed, evil it never did prevail.
10. These are the mothers & future mothers
Shabbat Shalom   (04.08.11)
who are proud of their children's suicide bombings, murdering and maiming innocent Israelis and then distribute candies. No sane Jewish Israeli will shed a tear for the a terrorist member being killed after thousands of deadly rockets are fired into Israel.
11. This is for . . .
AlbertoGA ,   St. George, USA   (04.08.11)
THE BIRDS Gaza must go. It was a very bad idea to make a State that live on Terrorism. Move the clowns to Sinai. Gaza is Historical Israel land.
12. BBC Coverage:
Tim ,   Brighton   (04.08.11)
E Mail Ive just sent to the BBC Dear Sirs Yet another example of the ghastly distortions in news coverage when it comes to Israel Your latest headline for example reads 'Israeli strikes 'kill six Gazans' At least six Palestinians are killed by Israeli air strikes in Gaza, amid fresh cross-border exchanges that threaten a truce declared by Hamas' The headline suggests that Israel attacks Gaza without ANY REFERENCE to the continued indiscriminate Mortar attacks POST their so called Cease Fire.. Why oh why do you do this?
13. 5 dead is not enough
marv   (04.08.11)
the toll is 5 dead and makes no impression on hamas. Continue firing from air, land , sea, snipe, hit gas stations, police stations, metal and wood factories, docks, keep firing until deterrence established. A figure of 250 dead is what will shut hamas up for 2 months. prepare plans for hamas elimination in gaza. Appoint galant to manage this file . get ready.
14. firing mortar shells from the heart of civilians doesn't
observer ,   Egypt   (04.08.11)
justify shelling those civilians, it is AGAINST EVERY LAW.
15. Like Shooting Fish In A Barrel
World Citizen ,   the world   (04.08.11)
Do the Israeli people really expect the people of the world to believe the lies and distortions your government uses? Hamas using human shields! What a joke. There are over a million people crowded into the Gaza Strip. There is no where for Hamas members, women, old men and children to hide from your high tech missles and bombs. The way we see it Israelis provocateurs dressed as Arabs are firing off the mortar rounds that always seem to land in some empty field or out in the desert. Then your government has an excuse to go in and murder Palestinian civilians. It's genocide in slow calculated steps. Israel is a rogue, lawless nation. It will fall because, like Sodom and Gamorrah, it has turned its back on morality .
16. to #1 seadog
Max ,   Washington DC   (04.08.11)
Are you a Hamas terrorist supporter? The US Congress is investigating our homegrown terorists and their supporters.
17. If nothing came flying in from Gaza, nobody would be dead.
David ,   Hartford USA   (04.08.11)
Gaza is to blame. Hamas is to blame. Israel has every right (and responsibility) to turn Gaza into an ash heap, but it doesn't because the world would be upset that a gang of bloodthirsty psychopaths would be killed. What's wrong with this picture? Get some Predators up in the air and take out the Gaza murderers once and for all. If the USA can do it thousands of miles from home, Israel can certainly do it in its own backyard!
18. BBC
Abba ,   Modi'in, Israel   (04.08.11)
They distort the news in favor of the Arabs because they have never recovered from the fact that we threw the anti-Semitic Brit bastards out of Israel in 1947.
19. We should destroy all tall buidings in gaza
jason white ,   afula, israel   (04.08.11)
that can they can see Israel from. Why don't we destroy their electric system and destroy all cables carrying electricity into gaza. Hit all private generators and knock out their water and sewage systems for a start.Let their civilians suffer enough and maybe they will rebel against ham-ass and the other terror groups.
20. Terror leaders in gaza should be
john   (04.08.11)
hunted down like dogs.
21. i do not understand something here if they say they like
(04.08.11)
death more than we likelife, then why are they complaining about being hit? could someone please tell me this?
22. hit cell
observer ,   Egypt   (04.08.11)
a cell denotes the functional unit, has nothing to do with persons' bodies.
23. #19 you can't test Cairo's power by hitting Gaza
observer ,   Egypt   (04.08.11)
24. to observer and world citizen
Barney ,   USA   (04.08.11)
you are complaining on the wrong forum. you should complain to those that hide among civilians. if it is too crowded to shoot terrorist rockets then don't shoot and you won't have to worry about IDF retaliation. Otherwise, tough luck. the theory that Israeli's dressed as arabs are shooting rockets from your territory? put down the pipe already.
25. Death penalties for Hamas
Marc ,   Toronto, Canada   (04.08.11)
If Hamas were real men, they wouldn't launch mortars in the vicinity women and children. But alas, they aren't men. They're bad little boys.
26. To #15
Jonathan ,   Palo Alto   (04.08.11)
You can see any way you want. But also look at the funerals of Arab "martyrs" killed as they were firing rockets, they look like any dead arab jihadist to me, so stop this nonsense about dressed israelis, shooting missiles from the middle of the Gaza.
27. Genocide against Gazans
Nate ,   USA   (04.08.11)
Bloodthirsty Israelis want to commit mass genocide against the people of Gaza... how ironic. Some of these talkbacks make me sick. I'm not suprised Ynet would publish them though.
28. The IDF must get their surgical field hospital out of Japan
Rivkah   (04.08.11)
or move it to the Southern part of Japan and move the people who are in Northern Japan with them. Three plates of the earth meet at Japan. This morning on the Jim Bakker Morningside Show, the plates were discussed with experts to show what is happening in Japan. When the next big earthquake hits under Tokyo, the Northern part of Japan will slide under the ocean. The Western part of the United States, the California shelf all the way to Canada will be pulled into the ocean, too. San Diego, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Oakland, up to Seattle and beyond will be pulled into the Pacific Ocean. There are maps of this happening from 100 years ago (Edgar Cayce) and more recently Joel Skousen's earth changes maps. This can happen at any time. Get away from the West Coast and get out of Northern Japan, NOW.
29. No 14 - Who writes your law?
Boris Yasdnilkov ,   Fernandina Beach, US   (04.08.11)
Against every law? You appear to suscribe to actions akin to the type of murderers who assassinated Anwar Sadat. Some law!
30. re 14
Nigel ,   London, england   (04.08.11)
surely, Observer in Egypt, the simple answer is to stop terrorists from firing missiles. They use their own population as human shields which is, a War Crime. Or would you prefer Israel to allow rockets to rain down on towns. You see the world with one eye and that one has no place in the Middle East for Jews. Hamas are terrorists and, having just been freed from tryany yourself, perhaps allow others the same right.
