Isn't this all about Hamas making up with PA.. and sitting in
Government with them.
Netanyahu spat the dummy when this happened .. and even the Unites States applauded the reconciliation.
Ever since then this onslaught was a forgone conclusion.
Which begs the question .... Who was actually responsible for the kidnap and murder
of the three Israeli teenagers.
For me that is very much open to question.
In Palestine itself, Human Rights Watch has long blamed the Palestinian police and justice system for the near-total failure to protect women in Gaza and the West Bank from "honour" killings. Take, for example, the 17-year-old girl who was strangled by her older brother in 2005 for becoming pregnant – by her own father.
He was present during her murder. She had earlier reported her father to the police. They neither arrested nor interrogated him. In the same year, masked Hamas gunmen shot dead a 20-year-old, Yusra Azzami, for "immoral behaviour" as she spent a day out with her fiancée. Azzami was a Hamas member, her husband-to-be a member of Fatah. Hamas tried to apologise and called the dead woman a "martyr" – to the outrage of her family. Yet only last year, long after Hamas won the Palestinian elections and took over the Gaza Strip, a Gaza man was detained for bludgeoning his daughter to death with an iron chain because he discovered she owned a mobile phone on which he feared she was talking to a man outside the family. He was later released. www.independent.co.uk...

Soldiers around the World are not any different from the pictures you posted, this behavior of posing is not new to any army. So propaganda is OK when you post pictures of Israel soldiers doing it. Also the picture of group of people watching is also something what people tend to do when they are in safe place.
What im saying posts like that are pretty pointless ( unless you are doing propaganda work)

Wow, that is shocking, slightly worse than a typical weekend in Chicago.
At this rate, they may actually match the death toll for a typical weekend from violence in the entire USA when all is said and done.

No, but if it was I doubt the US military would be warning people to get out of a building before they bomb it.
The death toll in Gaza now would be in the thousands if the IDF were just dropping bombs on targets without warnings.

Similar to the IRA dropping weapons and disarming, if Hamas did the same Israel would be forced into an agreement...
Hamas, "we have no rockets or guns now!!!"...
IDF/Mossad, "Jehovah damn it, even false flags won't work now"...
It saved a lot of the Irish, even if peace wasn't top priority, a lack of dead family members definitely was...
Peace Intrepid, I've liked your input in this thread a lot!!!
There is a clear difference here: the IRA was in reaction to British imperialist control over Ireland. Britain was not trying to ethnically cleanse Ireland so British could claim it as there own.
If HAMAS and all Palestinians were to disarm, then you would see a far worse intensification of ethnic cleansing than is going on now. Gaza is already a ghetto, and the IDF will deal with it much like the Nazi SS did with Polish ghettos. While I'm not saying that Israel will carry out a holocaust, they will most certainly remove all ethnic Palestinians from the whole of Israel.
