when the intelligence that Israel had very quickly thanks to its network in Gaza pointed them in the right direction. Perhaps it was a lame excuse to deflect the real sources and to protect them. Case in point - the IDF had real-time intelligence to find a PRC commander on a motorcycle and hit him at the time he was away from civilians. If the IDF can do that, they have the network to get good intel. And why not? Gazans are becoming weary of the constant war their terror govt have provided them. Funny - your comments about civilian deaths must have been lost recently because we didn't even hear from you when Israelis were being slaughter. Perhaps the Israelis on the bus, in their own country, killed themselves?

of Shalit to show something serious will give Gaza a chance to avoid the the punishing deterant reprisals that are being prepared to crush Gaza.

But I confess to agreeing with the sentiment.

Oh monumentally stupid one, Israel has long stated that it will hold Hamas responsible for any missiles fired at Israeli civilian centers and all acts of terrorism emanating from the Gaza Strip. What part of that do you NOT understand? And why are you so quick to accuse Israel of acts of "state terror" when it defends itself when you express so little concern for the traumatized civilians in Israel? That makes you an apologist for terrorism. Shame on you. The U.K. should lift your license to practice medicine. You, sir, are no physician.

You are an ignorant lout. Back off; your babbling nonsense is getting kind of old and tired. Are the Jewish people children of a lesser god? Just get lost.

"Israel" said they killed seven perpetrators of Eilat attacks , why not announced till now their names and their identities if they were from Gaza ?!!

serve the interests of the jihadists and to be violated at their convenience.

IDF fire in Gaza was never directed towards civilians nor were they the intended target. Each time your ilk tries to claim "war crimes" or "State terror", and push for indictment in court, the judge pulls out the definition of terrorism and your motion gets quickly denied and thrown out of court. But you're pretty willing to accept the word of a terrorist group, people who routinely lie about responsibility - whether claiming it or denying it. Which just destroys your credibility. Ben Alofs - the world doesn't need more hacks. There's plenty in the UK already, actually.

about the impending PRC attack and that's why several elite units were on hand in the Eilat area and were able to quickly respond. This has been reported in the media. And that is also why Israel knew where the PRC leadership was hiding and was able to strike them. Because you're a retrograde Marxist you are unable to perceive reality.

Why would Israel share with you or the public the extent of their intel. We do know they got some...in the form of a warning from Jordan...so you jumping to conclusions that AK-47's and ammo are the only evidence is a silly assumption. Yet you based your entire post on that one remark, how moronic! The funny thing is I don't remember...as others have pointed out...your concern about Jewish Israeli murders, as with the passenger bus, the school bus not long ago or the drive-by shootings last year that Hamas claimed credit for and held a victory parade. (the victims: 4 Jewish civilians including a pregnant mother of 6). In addition I don;t remember reading any criticism of Assad killing over 2,000 in the last 5 months, the 3,000 that have disappeared, nor the 60,000 arrests to intimidate the Syrian people. The same was true of Libya, Egypt, Yemen etc.,, so your outrage seems confined to only Israel, do us all a favor a save your rather hollow and selective indignation.
