1. Almost home.
manicdrummer ,   Haifa, Israel   (08.16.14)
Now Hamas has some dissenters at home. If they lay one finger on any of them, it will only cause millions in the Diaspora to focus their condemnation on them rather than Israel. And all Israel would have to do is sit back and wait.
2. Gaza residents complain:
barbara ,   Haifa Israel   (08.16.14)
"We do not want to be bombarded every two or three years. We want to lead a good life: Sleep well, drink well and eat well," How about working, also, at some legitimate job - instead of building tunnels.
3. This situation...
Jules   (08.16.14)
... is the result of incessant efforts from the part of the Arab world (and, generally, from the Islamic world) to destroy Israel. They don't care about people of Gaza; they refuse to let them re-settle in any Arab country. In turn, the UN-funded schools teach hatred against Israelis, and even allow weapons stockpiled inside their premises. The Islamic world must be forced to open their doors to all those people living in Gaza who want to avoid further wars and destruction.
4. Very Sad
Josh ,   New York, NY   (08.16.14)
I fully supported Israel's retaliatory response to Hamas' barrage of rockets, and will continue to defend her. But I definitely feel for these people who are just pawns in Hamas' sick game. They have a right to a normal life, free of oppression from Hamas.
5. How tragic war is! Must coexist with their neighbours!

6. Zaid Rizk, from your lips to G-d's Ear

If you and your neighbors truly wish for peaceful lives, if you want your children to become teachers, doctors, scientists, writers, then YOU must be the ones to rid Gaza of the cancer of Hamas – Shalom aleichem.
