A unilateral ceasefire without security guarantees from hamas is a mistake.Here come the suicide bombers.

Yeah. They were probably coming anyway, though. None of this is going to be fixed until Israel finds their balls and actually faces up to the issue of right-of-return.
END THE U.S.-ISRAELI ALLIANCE NOW - STOP MUTUAL EXPLOITATION - SUPPORT FORCING ISRAEL TO DECLARE THEIR HUNDREDS OF NUCLEAR WEAPONS
Selected Quotes - Israel/Palestine
???The reason that Israel has been able to appropriate Palestine unto itself with American aid and support is that Israel controls the explanation of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. At least 90% of Americans, if they know anything at all of the issue, know only the Israeli propaganda line. Israel has been able to control the explanation, because the powerful Israel Lobby brands every critic of Israeli policy as an anti-semite who favors a second holocaust of the Jews.???
- Paul Craig Roberts, 2007
(See: Carter's Inconvenient Truths
No people anywhere in the world would accept being expelled en masse from their own country; how can anyone require the people of Palestine to accept a punishment which nobody else would tolerate????
- Bertrand Russell, 1970
Lord Bertrand Russell addressing an international conference in 1970, wrote the following:
"The tragedy of the people of Palestine is that their country was ???given??? by a foreign power to another people for the creation of a new state. The result was that many hundreds of thousands of innocent people were made permanently homeless. With every new conflict their numbers increased. How much longer is the world willing to endure this spectacle of wanton cruelty?
i dont know for how long united states will baby sit isreal; however, its better to go back to germany again.
The Zionists have no sense of shame; they are savages. There is no justification for using those horrible incendiary weapons on anyone. Nor is there any reasonable justification for the incessant bombing that continues bringing death and destruction when there is no military purpose. The Zionists have killed over 913 civilians, of these, 342 were children. The results of their monstrous behaviour will be remembered for decades. The Zionists like to boast that they have an ???Democratically??? elected government; well so do the people of Gaza - that government is Hamas.
The evil the Zionist are sowing will bear a fruit that will blossom into an intense loathing that will grow and perpetuate itself throughout time. If the Jews wanted to insure perpetual hatred from the civilised world, they have just guaranteed it. Space does not permit me to recount all of the atrocities committed by these people. Suffice it to say to call them monsters would be a compliment.
I wonder what these people think is going to happen when they finally stop killing.
52 percent of the population of Gaza are children and Israel has only killed 350 of them so far, while killing 800 or so Plestinian adults, four of their own troops and damaging or destroying 20,000 palestinian homes. Is there any greater proof that Israel is truly a humanitarian state by not killing the 5 or 6 hundred children randon chance would dictate. This statistic of course is based on the number children whose bodies actually made to the hospital or morgue identifiably intact. In many instances entire families have been wiped out, burried or blown to tiny shreads. Gee maybe the israelis should have a big parade in New York City after this is all over so New york's governor and mayor can tell them what a great job they did in person.
in the last nfamous words of nero
is it burning
yes it is
but so is israell
with the insanity and immorality
testing experimental new weaponry on women and kids
there is any justice and there is -israel will vanish like sodom and gomorrah
it is the country of euro and american trash who flock there to facilitate their psychopathic lust for innocent human blood
and it has nothing to do with muslims or jews
its got to do with barbaric murderers who are awaiting the wrath of god
which is soon at hand
the role american admin plays is of a terrorist in this issue and i am shocked as the majority of yanks are god fearing christians -at moment they behave like the mongol herds and the conquistadores
MUCH WOSRT THEY HAVE BECOME THE TORQUEMEDAS INQUISITION -SHAME ON ISRAEL AND MORE SO ON AMERICA
By the way, those of you who call Israel a "democracy" are laughable. The definition of democracy is the fact that people who live on a territory controlled by a certain government have some say as to the composition of the government. The Palestinians of the West Bank and Gaza live on a territory totally controlled by Israel but they are not allowed to vote in Israeli elections. Hence, Israel is not a democracy. It is a rogue state that we should be bombing, not supporting with billions of dollars. Israel is one of the reasons we are broke.
Israel has about as much right to exist as North Korea. It all depends on behavior.
I don't know about all these politicians that try to make a buck while giving you the impression that they working for peace. That Tzipi Livni, what in the hell she doing visiting Condoleezza Rice, except probably to ask for more money, and obviously a little moral support from the secretary of state. Wasn't Ms. Rice was in the area for the last year trying to negotiate a solution to the problem?. So what that Livni is doing here except promoting their venture into Gaza. That is rediculous that this country is going so low into accomodating a representative from a state like Israel. We are making history to have a black person as president of the United States, but yet we have go backwards to accomodate such filth to come in this country, and support them moraly, financialy, and militarily.
Interesting to follow Condoleezza Rice visitis.
Rice visited Georgia - War against Russia
Rice Visited Ukraine - War against Russia and Europe (Ukraine does not allow Russian Gas to Europe)
Rice Visited Israel - War against Palestine (ans as a matter of facts against the rest of the world)
What is next?
Condoleezza Rice said the United States and Israel will sign an agreement aimed at stopping the smuggling of weapons into the Gaza Strip for Hamas.
Why United States and Israel are smuggling weapons into the Gaza Strip for Hama?
un should put an arms embargo on israel
israel and america -infant killers and worst then terrorists
some of theso called israeli jews who comiitted these barbaric acts deserve to be sent back to dachau by uno
they are an immoral festering sore on the face of this planet
JUST SHOWS WHO THE REAL TERRORISTS ARE AS ALWAYS HAVE BEEN
and there has to be war crimes trials against them
So for the second time in almost as many weeks Israel shoots up a U.N. installation. Then claims their were Hamas/Terrorists/Boogie Men inside. Then tries to claim they weren't inside, but nearby when their proven wrong. Just how stupid do they think the rest of the world is?
Look, I think this time Israel has gone too far, bombing the UN supply centre in Gaza at the very presence of Secretary General Ban Ki-moon while talking with the nation???s leaders. Little wonder Ban gets angry, saying the act has become unbearable. Was it a deliberate act or an inadvertent mistake?
Already 1000 people killed, mostly civilians. What else will Israel achieve by plunging deeper into Gaza? Time to HALT, time to TALK.
LIVE AND LET LIVE.

Israel is a terrorist state killing women, children and innocent civilians and public buildings and hospitals, for whatever reason it is just unacceptable. Jews are known for their slyness and the UN resolutions mean nothing to them when they even rebuked the words of God. Even if Israel managed to wipe out the Palestinians from the surface of the earth it can never win simply because Israel is a Zombie. It is a living dead. It is seen as alive because of the "life transfusion" it is receiving from the US and its allies. Israel cannot survive even a day without these "life support system".
when, during the first gulf war, iraq was firing rockets at israel and people were duct taped into their bathrooms for protection from chemical attacks, the palestinians were cheering and celebrating. where were you guys then. silent perhaps? now the palestinians have iranian rocket technology and you are shocked that the israelis will go to ANY length to stop a critical attack.
it is really sad what is happening in gaza. i hope there will be peace talks. hamass only wants cease fires when they are losing. what's happening right now could only prolong a necessary military operation.
america has killed far more arabs than little israel does. but you are the first people who condemn self defense because it is 'disproportionate.' i believe this is a criterium which is only used against jews.
do you want to close down the indonesian embassy or the chinese embassy? give me a break!

We are witnessing genocide!
Just as the UN could not protect the palestinians,the lebanese,the bosnians,the sudanese,the somalis,the georgians,the chechens etc,they would fail miserably to protect israel despite all their resolutions and protests which we all know the world ignores.If Israel wishes to survive,it must protect itself in the same selfish manner that all countries do and ignore the hypocrisy of others that live safe and secure in countries whose borders and peace were long ago secured by violence and inhumanity.
UN Sec Ban Kimoon outraged after the UnGaza building caught fire ! Did Sec Ban ask what had transfired from GazaUN Head ReliefAgency JOHN GING- the headquarter was hit by sharpnel and tank fire during a clash with Hamas ! See the Hamas are taking refuge and using the civilians as shield and positioned themeselves near Mosques, and buildings such as the UN. in which case civilians death and the tragedy of the UN Headquarter UNAVOIDABLE.
