Israeli military leaders vowed “no restraint” today in a new offensive against the Gaza Strip, pounding targets across the site, including sites near the Rafah border crossing.
Israel claimed 29 sites hit in Gaza and considerable damage, though there have been no confirmed Palestinian casualties. Israeli officials claimed more than 50 rockets fired at southern Israel from Gaza as the pretext, though only two rockets actually landed anywhere near any residential areas, and of those only one caused “light damage.”
Gaza rockets aren’t so rare, but one hitting something is. The Israeli government was virtually inconsolable about the “barbaric” strike, and Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman called for a full scale military conquest of the entire strip.
The latest escalation along Gaza is the largest since November of 2012, when Israel was on the verge of another invasion. Israeli hawks have vowed to continue their strikes on Gaza this time.
It appears the Israeli hawks and Islamic Jihad wanted the same thing, and they gave it to each other.
You know a lot about people from their friends.
Look up 'barbaric strike" in a dictionary and you'd probably find a photo of a US made war jet with the star of david painted under the wings.
interesting, I wonder who broke the last ceasefire.
quick the world is distracted!
quick while the world is distracted!
I don't think the killing of the Jordanian judge is accidental. The country is now run according to the revisionist philosophy of Jabotinsky, which desires to expand the frontiers of Israel. From the very beginning, before the state was established, these Zionists wanted what was then called Trans Jordan, now the kingdom of Jordan.
You watch this is only the beginning of a new conflict, one that will involve Jordan. These Zionists are psychopaths.
Didn't the US just hand Israel $479 million for their Iron Dome anti missile system? Were they waiting for US taxpayer funds to turn it on? If it's worth another half billion dollars what happened to it on this occasion? It's not the only anti-missile system Israel has (and US pays for), so what happened to the others? The timing of this latest rocket attack, Netanyahu's attempt to blame Palestine for the failure of peace talks, non-functional anti-missile systems, and world attention on Ukraine seems just a little too convenient. And again, Israel proves it is the self proclaimed "Mad Dog" of the middle east by "pounding" Gaza after a single rocket caused "light damage."

It would be much easier and much less contentious if the US just paid the Turks to lease some land on the northern Turkish coast to build a home port.
Of course, that would not rekindle the Cold War with Russia…and it would probably send McCrazy to tears…and re-awaken the half-gubnor who can see Putin watching everything she does. Tools.
Avigdor Lieberman is advocating nothing less than a holocaust of the Gaza strip.
For the first time ever the citizen of the Arabic country dare to say no
To their governments and since the start of what's called the Arab spring
The citizens are learning how to fight, how to use weapons and most of
All, Israeli collaborators (Arabic governments) are falling one after the
Other and pretty soon Israel won't have anyone to protect its boarders
From the jihadis who longs to die fighting, people have had it with their
Governments, it's not just the US that protects Israel, it's the Arabic
Governments and their armies or should I say, America's slaves who
Protects Israel, thirty million Egyptians took to the streets to oust president
Mursy, what if those thirty million walked towards Israel, what you think
Would happen, I say poof Israel and peace in the world and we all will
Live happily ever after.
