Gaza-Bound Ships Pose Danger to Israeli Civilians

In order to protect Israeli civilians from attacks by the terrorist organization Hamas, the IDF lawfully enforces a naval blockade on the Gaza Strip. Given previous attempts by the terrorist organization in smuggling weapons via land and sea and the inherent difficulties in conducting inspections at sea, it is critical that Israeli forces inspect all goods and material marked for Gaza prior to their transfer into the Strip.

Hamas is the cancer of the Palestinian people, not Israel.

[killer21334]

hamas and all other such terrorist organizations launch missles that are meant to hit civilian targets, any counter attacks by Israel are precise and only targeted at CONFIRMED terrorist hideouts. the fact that they use civilians as human shields and then blame Israel for the deaths only proves that they are insane to the point of killing each other if it means getting a spot of that blood on Israel.

IDF are now pirates.

Hamas is a terrorist organization sponsored by Iran and Syria. It's plain bullshit to say that these actions have nothing to do with Hamas. Because if it doesn't then please explain to me why the motto of hamas is: we love death as the Jews love life?

[Suojeluninja]

Currently all terrorist organisations lack proper equipment, training and leadership.

Though thats no reason to go easy on them.

There are several reasons for why the civilian casualties are so high.

Like:

- Israeli loose cannons.

- The difficulty to tell terrorists from civies.

- Terrorists seeking cover from civies. Don't know how frequent this is but has been witnessed by UN personell.

- Carelesness. Like an car has been hit by an missile and people gather around it.

Hamas = terror = your life is shit

[xassxass]

Hamas say they will exterminate Israel. I can say the same thing about you- and sooner or later - if you smart- you will act towards me as Israel act towards Hamas and all their attempts to kill jews.

Hamas does not recognise Israel's right to exist and is engaged in terror against Israel. So can not be considered ready to negotiate if arming terrorists. Just as the UK did not and could negotiate with Jerry Adams and Martin Maguinees till the IRA had to given up violence in Northern Ireland. neither can Israel, though they try.

Israel actually recognizes Gaza as a foreign territory / state in a state of WAR against Israel.

Check your facts. You are wrong and I am right.

Hamas declared WAR on Israel.  It's in Hamas' Charter. Go read it... and get an education in reality.

[Countrygent100]

Hey.... what part of WAR don't you understandd?!

Hamas' Charter makes it quite clear that it is in a state of WAR against Israel. Read the goddam Charter!!

Hamas (and people like you) whinging about deaths caused by Israel is like saying America had no right to win against Japan.

WAR. Look it up in the dictionary, pal!
