1. Did Terrorist Rockets Eminate From

gaza or the Sinai?
2. They just don't learn, do they?
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (01.20.14)
These congenitally defective cretins keep insisting on learning the hard way. Okay. Teach them a lesson once and for all. Pound them. Hard. And then cut off humanitarian supplies, electricity, fresh water, medical emergency admissions to Israel for two weeks. When it starts to hurt badly enough, Hamas will do something. Unless and until, there is nothing to motivate them to stop the bad behavior. Give them a reason -- a real, PAINFUL reason -- to take Israel's warnings seriously. Pounding them from the air for a good half-hour or so, non-stop, is a good place to start.
3. and so it goes...
les ,   canada   (01.20.14)
Israel's "peace partners" hard at work for the two state solution.
4. We shouldn't do anything
Shimon Peres ,   Jerusalem   (01.20.14)
We have to work for peace, let's release more prisoners from the jails, then they will love us. I love you dear Arabs, uncle Shimon.
5. Palis playing with fire again
Ben S ,   Free World   (01.20.14)
Why don't their mothers teach them not to play with fire?
6. As usual
sheik rattle & roll ,   USA   (01.20.14)
Bibi will do nothing except blame Obama. He needs to show the PALS that he is willing to protect his people. He wants everyone to go to war with Iran and he allows terrorist entities to launch missiles at his cities with impunity. The man needs to MAN-UP and if do what has to be done. If al quada had a terrorist base in Mexico and launched missiles at the US the US Marines/US Army will take over Mexico and make sure no more missiles are in Mexico.

Birdi ,   Israel   (01.20.14)
Because they grow up on the streets of Gaza where terror is the name of the game. Lovely people!
8. #2 I agree with you 1000%, but until Israels' leaders
A ,   Belgium   (01.20.14)
begin to take their own warnings seriously, why should the "palestinians"? Each rocket is simply an extended middle finger in the direction of King Bibi the Weak and his cowardly policies. BTW, when is Abbas expected to honor the next batch of freed "good will gesture" murderers?
9. #1 Does it matter from where they came really?
A ,   Belgium   (01.20.14)
Arabs shoot rockets at Israel, Israel retaliatates and kills 500 women, children and babies...according to the arab press. And the UN,US,EU nods its collective empty head up and down and drools..."BAD,ISRAEL,BAD!" So what's the point where the rockets came from, however Israel retaliates will be unacceptable to the rest of the world.
10. @2 & 9 It Matters
David ,   ny USA   (01.20.14)
Sarah is wrong as usual. Gaza rockets are too far away. The last strikes on this port were fired from Jordan or Eqypt, the only places in range. Yet she calls for strikes on Gaza! Good job she's not in charge of the IDF, or she's have gone to war with Iran and ended up bombing Peru!
11. @1 Range of Rockets
Silas ,   New Idris, Tasmer   (01.20.14)
The rockets from Gaza do not have the range to reach as far as Eliat, so they came from either Egypt or Jordan. Dificuly choice for Bibi: Egypt is massing it's army to crush Hamas and won't take kindly to a IDF strike in the Sinai. Jordan has a treaty with Israel and is the only friendly nation left. Also it's government wouldn't do such a thing, so if the IDF strike Jordan it makes it's king look weak, and his overthrow by the Brotherhood more likely.
12. Play ball.
Michael Pielet ,   Israel   (01.21.14)
Please give every israeli citizen a catcher's glove to catch each rocket in the air before it lands.
13. Tit for tat is hamas game
Ron ,   oc us   (01.21.14)
So Israel plays it. Has not worked-ever. Cut supplies, launch cheap rockets into Gaza, hit everyy economic target they have, stop with medical or any other reason allowing Gazans into Israel. I bet hamas gets religion really quick.
14. 10
yonatan ,   adelaide/Israel   (01.21.14)
You are wrong as usual-the aim of the rockets is to terrorise and kill.And they do the job.The trauma people suffer from terrorism is unacceptable-so,if the perps who send rockets don't stop then I totally agree with Sarah. BTW-you are an Arab,so terrorism is ok by you.
15. I doubt
Dov ben David ,   Eilat, Israel   (01.21.14)
that the rockets came from Gaza. They were felt from many of us as they exploded. I draw the conclusion that because of there size, they came from Egypt and not from Gaza. one thing is for sure, we will not let terrorists send rockets on civilians. There is a price to pay for this....
16. Another legacy from 'King' Sharon...
Al   (01.21.14)
Remember that when you fall all over yourselves looking for a 'HERO'. Gaza should have never been returned to the arabs
17. To: Silas at No. 11
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (01.21.14)
Could be terrorists operating in the Sinai. Egypt hasn't cleaned out the entire nest of vipers. I disagree with your take on Egypt's response. Al Sisi knows he has a choice -- he cleans out the mess, or Israel does it for him. Which, needless to say, will involve taking the Sinai yet again. He knows that Israel will give him a chance to clean out the terrorists, but nothing is forever. Including Israel's patience. It is very definitely not Jordan. The tiny king may not particularly like Israel, but he is not suicidal. And if there are terrorist groups operating from Jordanian soil, he will look the other way should Israel decide to go after them.
18. Gaza Warsaw ghetto uprising continues, blame Hamas Judenrat
Steve Benassi ,   Silver Bay, MN USA   (01.21.14)
