Amidst world-wide protests Israel is continuing its bombing campaign against Gaza for the third consecutive day and preparing to launch a possible ground invasion. Following on months of a crippling blockade this has been described as one of Israels bloodiest attacks on Palestinians since 1948. Latest reports indicate that 310 people have been killed and 1,400 injured in the aerial strikes across the Gaza Strip since Saturday morning. The latest targets of the airstrikes include the Hamas Interior Ministry building and the Islamic University. Israels Defense Minister Ehud Barak announced today that Israel is in a all-out war with Hamas and its proxies in Gaza. Fears of a ground invasion are growing after Israel declared a military buffer zone around Gaza, closing off the strip and its 1.5 million residents, to journalists and civilians.

We speak to Dr. Moussa El Haddad and Fida Qishta in Gaza, Dr. Mustafa Barghouti in Ramallah, Gideon Levy in Tel Aviv and Ali Abunimah in the U.S.

Netanyahu is a joke. I saw him in a propaganda piece on the phony bulldozer killing thing. It was so fake I laughed my @ss off. Jews will put any sh!t on the news and expect everyone to believe it. I noticed in the fake news piece that all the jew men ran like girls. Give Israel back to the Palestinians who should have it. We in American will see that happens one day!!

you can lie to yourself all you want, but you can never dispute on factual and intellectual grounds the reality that Israel is a rogue state guilty of war crimes committed against the Palestinian people.

People of Israel, speak up. Don't let the Govt intermidate you and call you betrayers if you speak against a Genocide in Gaza.

Same thing happened in Germany, germans were called Jew lovers or betrayers of the Vaterland if they went against the violence against the Jews.

Its your chance now to be an example and stop what once happened to your people.
