Israeli Attacks Gaza in Bloodiest Conflict Since 1948-1/5

Israeli Attacks Kill Over 310 in Gaza in One of Israel's Bloodiest Attacks on Palestinians Since 1948

Amidst worldwide protests, Israel is continuing its bombing campaign against Gaza for the third consecutive day and preparing to launch a possible ground invasion. Following months of a crippling blockade, this has been described as one of Israel’s 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 air strikes include the Hamas Interior Ministry building and the Islamic University. Israel’s Defense Minister Ehud Barak announced today that Israel is in an “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 US. [includes rush transcript]

The Americans killed TEN MILLION LIVES in S-East Asia (that's 2000 deaths per week during 520 weeks), yet they got their obese asses kicked out of Vietnam.

The Palestinians can do likewise with the Zionists.

In August 2008, Israel, after it supplied arms and trained the Georgian military, pushed Sakaashvili to attack and massacre the South Ossetians. See what the Russians did? Why didn't the USA move? Remember STALIN 'S JEWS? now one single Topol-M will wipe off the Zionist State any time.

You would think that the palestinians would learn to stop firing rockets into Israel. They are really not very smart people. I feel very sorry for them. I think it is that wacky religion they follow.

Mahatma Gandhi on Jews and Palestine

The cry for the national home for Jews does not make much appeal to me. Jews born in France are French in precisely the same sense that Christians born in France are French. If Jews have no home but Palestine, will they relish the idea of being forced to leave the other parts of the world in which they are settled? Or do they want a double home where they can remain at will? This cry for the national home affords a colorable justification for the German expulsion of the Jews. — Mahatma Gandhi

"The thesis that the danger of genocide was hanging over us in June 1967 and that Israel was fighting for its physical existence is only bluff, which was born and developed after the war." Israeli General Matityahu Peled, Ha'aretz, 19 March 1972.

"We must do everything to insure they (the Palestinian refugees) never do return. The old will die and the young will forget ", in his diary, 18 July 1948, quoted in Michael Bar Zohar's Ben-Gurion: the Armed Prophet, Prentice-Hall,1967, p. 157.

A Jewish Holocaust survivor Hedi Absteen whom protest with many others out side the office of a senator whom had strong ties with Boeing (the producer of F16, the Israeli in their open field massacre) is an enough " straight" answer for you !!

The Palstinians don't have Tanks or air-fighters & isolated under siege ; while Israel had the 4th strongest army in the World & the 1st in the region

I can't tell you what to believe or think; but you are repeating an absolutely irrational PROPAGANDA

[Diostelibre]

Well, why don't you answer straight? Are you aware of Hamas training kids to kill? Can you fit this in your mind like the right thing to do?
