1. Couldn't they have destroyed his home with all its occupants
Chaim ,   Israel   (07.29.14)
"My house is not more valuable than the houses of other people, destroying stones will not break our determination," Haniyeh said in a statement. HE'S RIGHT! Destroying empty houses, empty buildings and empty tunnels will not stop the terrorism. Why is Israel so cowardly? Carpet bombing Gaza is the only solution. Do it once and over with it.
2. Haneyeh's worth is $2.3 BILLION
BUILD BABY BUILD!!!!   (07.29.14)
What does he care if some buildings are destroyed, he'll steal the "poor pals" welfare checks and build some more.... And we ask why? It's the money honey. The pals are worth more dead than alive, doubt it? Ask this merchant of death and greater profits even on the dead bodies of the pals. Oh! And, a personal friend to obama the Muslim war lord. GO ISRAEL!!
3. Finally we've managed to get his address???
tom ,   tel aviv   (07.29.14)
4. Haniyeh
Sammy ,   Newcastle   (07.29.14)
Says - Bring it on...he doesn't care if his house has been destroyed Of course the puffed up Laughing Hyena doesn't With MILLIONS of Tunnel Revenue stashed away - of course HE doesn't care - hes got pots of money to build his houses 50 times over As for the rest - he thinks that Gaza must follow HIS EXAMPLE And NEITHER should the rest of Gaza care if their houses, businesses, livelihoods, lives and country are destroyed
5. All right: who's going to hit homes of our serial bunglers?!
tom ,   tel aviv   (07.29.14)
6. It would be much cheaper for the US
(07.29.14)
to carpet bomb Gaza completely and rebuild it as an island surrounded by water.
7. Waste of ammunition
IESKY ,   KY Israel   (07.29.14)
Waste of ammunition... Thsi is not a terror target. Want to hit a terror target, hit Henia himself....
8. The Hamas leader has a luxury home in Qatar and under Gaza.
Rivkah   (07.29.14)
The underground headquarters of Hamas must be destroyed. Zephaniah the Prophet in Scriptures said Gaza would be destroyed to such an extent that no building would be left there and no one would survive and it would become a sheepfold during the Millenium reign of the Jewish Messiah (Yahoshua). An ELS Scripture code matrix shows that BHO is a member of Hamas. He must be impeached and tried for treason and executed when convicted since there can be no other outcome. Cut off the head of the snake.
9. they did not dare to escape.
jochair ,   kfar saba Israel   (07.29.14)
Gazans are more afraid of Hamas, then of the IDF. When all houses and buildings in Gaza are flattened, Gazans will have no choice, but to escape to Afghanistan for one.
10. Itiel Ben-yehudah
erez ,   london   (07.29.14)
My sentiments exactly. In particular, why tunnels which were known to exist were not being watched. This stupid neglect led to the unnecessary death of 10 of our boys. Bibi, Yaalon,Gantz should account for this to the nation.
11. Wake Up!
Harri ,   EU   (07.29.14)
Hamas is killing soldiers and IDF is killing civilians? Stop that madness before you mess up more badly and loose everything.
12. finish the job
ky   (07.29.14)
hit the other two tanks and cut the electricity completely. Also detect generators supplying the tunnels . Cut all sources of energy supply and it will soon be over.
13. Not that cares, he and his family are safe in some hotel....

14. Why does Israel supply "Palestinians" with anything?
Chaim ,   Israel   (07.29.14)
"Palestinians" bomb, rocket, terrorize, boycott, demonize, maim, murder and harm Israel every way they can. They are Israel's mortal foes and dream of genocide against Jews. Unlike every other state, in human history, Israel showers her deadly foes with support; money, food, materials, electricity, work permits etc. This is utter madness! Why does Israel supply "Palestinians" with anything?
15. To: No. 11
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (07.29.14)
Well, if Hamas were to stop hiding like little girls behind their women and their children, it would be more acceptable, but -- you have to deal with your enemy on the basis of what it is. In the case of Hamas, that would cowards. Firing missiles at innocent Israeli civilians makes Hamas war criminals. Sacrificing their own people -- by caching weapons in schools, homes, mosques and hospitals, thus rendering them legitimate military targets -- makes Hamas guilty of crimes against humanity. Hamas is a terrorist organization. Israel, on the other hand, is a sovereign state with an affirmative duty to protect and defend its civilians and its borders. Why on earth should I value the life of a "palestinian" child who has been raised to hate Jews and to seek the destruction of the "Zionist entity" over the life of a Jewish child? But if Hamas is ready to sacrifice the lives of "palestinian" children so callously, why should I give the lives of those children any greater consideration than does their leadership? The "palestinians" have a long and sordid history of selling their children to be suicide bombers. With that mindset, frankly, isn't civilization better off without those knuckle-dragging Stone Age beasts?
16. #11 The Israelis want to kill the civilians
jj   (07.29.14)
Look at almost any one of the talkbacks, or facebook comments here and on any of the other articles. They almost uniformly revel in the stories of palestinian deaths and are howling for the IDF to "carpet bomb" and "wipe out" the "rats". Meanwhile, they're also denying that things are that bad and saying that its the fault of the people in the open air prison that Israel doesn't like their leaders. These people only want extermination and domination, while telling you that they are the victims and that you're a racist for not allowing them to continue their colonisation. They are a vile nation that is rotten with from the inside out.
17. While the mini Land of Israel is open
ORA ,   JERUSALEM   (07.29.14)
to all the Jews of the world.... the many Arab countries close their doors to the Gaza civilians who don't have where to flee.
18. 14 from CHAIM
didier ,   france   (07.29.14)
THIS IS WHAT ALL OF YOU SHOULD TELL PM what Chaim writes is the MAIN point It is intelligent & nobody cares .WHY? Israelis are human,good people and think others are like them.BIG MISTAKE
19. do not supply fuel os electric.
eddiE ,   sa   (07.29.14)
What do our leaders think electricity is used for????? Have the leaders been told that a essential component in manufacturing rockets and other arms is ELECTRICITY for the lathes, drills welding equipment etc ??? Just as hamas used concrete which is now termed "dual-usage" for military tunnels, the humanitarian supply of electricity has been diverted to armaments.. Will this fact EVER sink in.??? Any FUEL supplied to hamas is also dual-use because it can be used to run portable ELECTRIC generaters. The SOLUTION ------DO NOT SUPPLY ANY ELECTRIC OR FUEL TO GAZA!!!!!
20. #16,on the contrary Israel is a peaceful nation under attack
Jake ,   USA   (07.29.14)
When I'm in Israel I see people living beautiful lives, people helping people, buildings flying up to meet the massive demand from newly married couples, children trusting stranger adults to walk them across the street, citizens striking up conversation with people they just met. Then rabid barbarians start killing their children and they understandably flip sh*t and want vengeance. Prophet Ovadyah told us that in the end of days Israel will be a fire that will catch onto anything that goes near it. Gaza is a good example of that. Don't f*ck with Israel if you know what's best for you, you've been warned.
21. By cutting the electricity Israel is finally doing something
Chaim ,   Israel   (07.29.14)
normal. Hope they won't foolish enough again to run and repair it.
22. #11 harri
ky   (07.29.14)
How do you know that Israel is killing civilians .Have you seen it with you own eyes or do you just prefer to believe a one sided story as shown on you tube. Why bother with investigations . why bother with forensic analysis? Why bother with logic. why bother with what the other side has to say ? You tube is good enough evidence, judge and jury for you and those who want to believe and scream blue murder.
23. #11, 14 Arab extermination is the only thing pacify region
Steve Benassi ,   Silver Bay, MN USA   (07.29.14)
24. #4 Sammy
Non-Jew ,   England   (07.29.14)
He also has 13 other houses in Gaza - each one registered in the name of a different one of his children.
25. cutting electricity ot ONLY PART of STRIP ??
eddiE ,   sa   (07.29.14)
Why only "PART" of strip ?? O!--- I forgot--- we still have a duty to supply their metal workshops with electric power for their lathes and welding equipment to keep the rockets flowing from their arms production workshops - remember that this provides employment which will take their minds of killing - This is such a misguided \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\humanitarian gesture from our leaders. !!!! GIVE THEM FIREWOOD -- that will really add a genuine touch to their primative life stile which they yearn for
26. While Abbas, in his Armani suit, dines in luxury.
DvorahTheProphetess ,   SC, USA   (07.29.14)
Hypocrisy - and the people take this cr@p from their glamour boy leader? They should be shrieking for Abbas' head on a pike. Fools.

Nice one, Jake.
28. 15 Sarah B.: That is precisely Elohim's opininon: Gaza des-
Rivkah   (07.30.14)
destroyed and all the people in it, dead, according to Zephaniah the Prophet in the Holy Scriptures where Palestinians are called by their ancient name, Philistines.
29. Yoav zitun is an enemy of Israel
naro ,   nyc   (07.30.14)
The proof is that he states that Israel attacked the power station in Gaza while the IDF and the government denies such an attack. YNET is becoming and agent of the left, and the voice of the defeatists within. Don't trust and dont read these Bloody chickens.

Rivkah   (07.30.14)
