those are drones. part of physiological warfare.

Well Im up for my morning tea.. Thankfully no real nightmares, just some odd dreams.. That I wont get into here on this thread.

I kept this running all night long.. And come back to more of the same as last night.. Before I went to sleep last night there where many puffs of smoke in the air..
They say they use these as smoke screens.. When infact its a weapon!!

I hope things get better before they get worse..

My question is.. Do either of these groups have nukes?
And how willing are they to use them if they have them?

I feel it would be a huge mistake to use any nukes here, or anywhere in the world.

what was that enormous flash that just light everything up?!

and saw a missile just after being fired...

Yeah i saw it as well, you would think it was a nuke going off!

Indiscriminate use of white phospheros, its hovering over at least half a mile. Civilians and children are being burned with that smoke from those air burst shells. Where is god???????????????

That was sertinly one very fullmoon.. And full moons normally mean more death. I can attest to this myself. On every lunar cycles, cops, and paramedics get more calls than any other time. Something about the full moon that drives people to do more crazy things.

One of those buildings there got hit really close.. closer than all the other hits I have seen so far..
I'm getting a little more numb to this.. So I can watch it without cringing everytime I hear a BOMB!
Yet still.. I can't shake that dreadful feeling I get underneath.

Its looking to get about 7 or so over there now.. Dusk?

The feed just cut off for me... I have been sending my thoughts and prayers throughout the night, I pray for safety and compassion for all parties involved, be they Palestinian or Israeli, All are my brothers and sisters.

all days change and fade according to the will of the increate
each leaf is his breathe manifest
i am but an ever changing stranger who seeks the light
all suffering is apparently inherent
why must it be so
i have it easy yet queasy the stomach
when i view mans tatters from the mount on the summit
i'm soon removed from it as back to earth quickly i plummet

Hey Guy's and Gal's. Thanks for this webcam, it is so eye opening to witness the madness that is gripping gaza atm.
This morning when I was watching i saw about 6 rpgs getting launched from roof tops. The sound is what makes this all the more haunting, i get the feeling tha some of the car horns are signels. One thing is i hav'nt heard too much small arms fire. Its more Heavy MG fire from gunships and tanks. Now its prayer time, there is a muslim singing.

Check out this picture i snapped of a rocket or something

Its either leaving the tall building, or going through it from the right, to the left side of the pic.

what was that?? was like a mid air bomb that spewed lots of little fragments falling from the sky (like fireworks) ????

K what are those sparks that look like fireworks.. falling all the way to the ground.. That can not be good.. That looks very deadly..
And not very on target either.. that looks like it spreads out way to far in this area..

These this maddness people.. the fighting has to stop.. Im getting off my ass today, and going to rally some people today..

You saw that too huh? Yeah.. IM not sure what that was? But its not the other stuff we have been seeing.. down right maddening.

Did some research here we go.. fireworks are..

White phosphorus (WP) is a flare- and smoke-producing incendiary weapon,[1] or smoke-screening agent, made from a common allotrope of the chemical element phosphorus. White phosphorus bombs and shells are incendiary devices, but can also be used as an offensive anti-personnel flame compound capable of causing serious burns or death.[2] The agent is used in bombs, artillery shells, and mortar shells, short range missiles which burst into burning flakes of phosphorus upon impact. White phosphorus is commonly referred to in military jargon as "WP". The slang term "Willy(ie) Pete" or "Willy(ie) Peter", dating from the First World War and common at least through the Vietnam era, is still occasionally heard.

Israel has nukes, but one must look at the proximity of Gaza to Israel... Any use of nukes, would kill as many if not more Israelis than Palestinians. The Prevailing winds alone would send the radioactive clouds and debris directly into Israel within minutes. Israeli nukes are a deterrent, the only way Israel would use its nukes may be against Iran, or other nations which attack either directly or by proxy through Hamas or other groups Israel with any form of WMD.

On the other hand If Hamas or other terrorist factions had nukes, chemical or biological weapons I do not believe they would hesitate to use them on Israel. That is the most fearful possibility, because it is "possible" that other nations who have WMD's could supply them to Hamas or other regional groups for an attack on Israel.

If that happens the death toll throughout the region would be unlike anything seen in the world since WWII... The inevitable is such a scenario, many believe that eventually all of this violence will lead to such an all out Arab Israeli war.

We can only observe, and hope it never happens, and that eventually cooler heads will prevail and see the ultimate futility in all of this fighting, once and for all accepting peaceful resolutions and ending this murderous insanity.

I really must leave for work soon... This live cam is captivating.

when the call to prayer ended israel launched a few cluster bombs and covered a massive area in white phos, they've laid down about 6 or 7 loads of phos in the last few min.

You mean these?

I think they have something to do with the smoke screen??
