I wonder how footage of a rally which was filmed by an independent party can be considered a violation of copyright.

Tomer Slootski [ The independent party ] probably filmed it and didn't give permission to whoever to use his recording before they uploaded the video to youtube.

On 23 February 2011 at least two 122mm Grad rockets were fired at Beersheba hitting and severely damaging a house in a residential area.[9]
On 23 March 2011 another two Grad rockets were fired at Beersheba, seriously injuring a civilian.
During the first week of April 2011, Israeli defense forces intercepted and destroyed several Grad rockets fired from Gaza near Ashkelon in southern Israel, using a newly deployed anti-missile system called Iron Dome.
[10] On Saturday August 20, 2011, over 24 Grad rockets were fired from the Gaza Strip towards Israel, landing in Beersheba and Ashdod and killing 1 Israeli. Hamas has claimed responsibility for these attacks

Yeah it's pretty valuable.
Recordings of rare events usually are.
Make 10 copies and save it in the vault

When I look at the kind of rockets Gaza is firing at Israel, then look at the kind of rockets Israel is firing back, I cannot see how this is nothing more than the harshest response Israel can have to a few rockets fired at them which in most cases do not even have a warhead. There must be something else going on which caused Gaza to attack this time. Firing rockets without warheads is at most a warning, but not an all out attack. Some of those rockets have a warhead but most them coming from Gaza do not have warheads.
And look at the one sided amount of dead and injured. Countless dead in Gaza compared to only a few in Israel. It is clear that Israel is trying to kill as many people as they can in Gaza; like they always do. Israel goes crazy anytime even the slightest attack is carried out against them. A long time ago Israel understood that the Arabs don`t want them there. I guess this is what happens when you steal someone`s land and expect them to like the whole idea.edit on 20-11-2012 by freedomwv because: grammar

I was busy yapping off in another anti humanity thread and missed the show here. Oh well, seems by the posts of a few heavyweights here, I did not miss much.

As to trying to kill as many as they can, Israel could wipe GAZA off the map - they are not going out of their way to kill civilians (but looking at your drama filled post, I don't expect you to understand)

If Israel is a sovereign country it should act like one and stop taking land that does not belong to it.

Actually, you missed quite a lot and it's still available on page three.
And shame on you for letting the "heavyweights" make your mind up for you, talk about and independent thinker
Some of the comments were also quoted in the OP, what are your thoughts on those?
Or do you skip all the posts and only read what the "heavyweights" say?
Terror, terror, terror, terror, terror. Here we go again. Israel is going to “root out Palestinian terror” – which it has been claiming to do, unsuccessfully, for 64 years – while Hamas, the latest in “Palestine’s” morbid militias, announces that Israel has “opened the gates of hell” by murdering its military leader, Ahmed al-Jabari.
Hezbollah several times announced that Israel had “opened the gates of hell” for attacking Lebanon. Yasser Arafat, who was a super-terrorist, then a super-statesman – after capitulating on the White House lawn – and then became a super-terrorist again when he realised he’d been conned by Camp David; he, too waffled on about the “gates of hell” in 1982.
And we journos are writing like performing bears, repeating all the clichés we’ve used for the past 40 years. The killing of Mr Jabari was a “targeted attack”, it was a “surgical air strike” – like the Israeli “surgical air strikes” which killed almost 17,000 civilians in Lebanon in 1982, the 1,200 Lebanese, most of them civilians, in 2006, or the 1,300 Palestinians, most of them civilians, in Gaza in 2008-9, or the pregnant woman and the baby who were killed by the “surgical air strikes” in Gaza last week – and the 11 civilians killed in one Gaza house yesterday. At least Hamas, with their Godzilla rockets, don’t claim anything “surgical” about them. They are meant to murder Israelis – any Israelis, man woman or child.
As, in truth, are the Israeli attacks on Gaza. But don’t say that or you’ll be an anti-Semitic Nazi; almost as evil, wicked, unspeakable, devilish and murderous as the Hamas movement with which – again, please don’t mention this – Israel happily negotiated in the Eighties when they encouraged this bunch of mobsters to take power in Gaza and thus decapitate the exiled super-terrorist Arafat. The new exchange rate in Gaza for Palestinian and Israeli deaths has reached 16:1. It will rise, of course. The exchange rate in 2008-9 was 100:1.
And we are myth-making too. The last Israeli war in Gaza was such a stunning success – “rooting out terror”, of course – that their supposedly élite units couldn’t even find their own captured soldier Gilad Shalit, eventually produced last year by Mr Jabari in person.
Mr Jabari was the “No 1 shadowy leader” of Hamas, according to the Associated Press. But how on earth can he be shadowy when we know his date of birth, family details, his years of imprisonment by Israel during which he changed allegiance from Fatah to Hamas? So while I’m on it, those years of Israeli imprisonment didn’t exactly convert Mr Jabari to pacifism, did they? Well, no tears then; he was a man who lived by the sword and died by the sword, a fate which, of course, will not afflict Israel’s warriors of the air as they kill civilians in Gaza.
Washington supports Israel’s “right to defend itself” then claims a spurious neutrality – as if Israel’s bombs on Gaza didn’t come from the United States as assuredly as the Fajr-5 rockets come from Iran.
Meanwhile, the pitiful William Hague holds Hamas “principally responsible” for the latest war. But there is no such evidence that this is true. According to The Atlantic Monthly, the Israeli killing of a “mentally unfit” Palestinian who strayed towards the border may have been the start of the latest war. Others suspect the killing of a small Palestinian boy may have been the provocation. But he was shot dead by the Israelis when an armed Palestinian group tried to cross the frontier and was confronted by Israeli tanks. In which case Palestinian gunmen – albeit not Hamas – may have kicked-off the whole shooting-match.
But is there nothing to stop this nonsense, this garbage war? Hundreds of rockets fall on Israel. True. Thousands of acres of land are stolen from Arabs by Israel –for Jews and Jews only – on the West Bank. There isn’t even enough land left there now for a Palestinian state.
Delete the last two sentences, please. There are only good guys and bad guys in this outrageous conflict in which the Israelis claim to be the good guys to the applause of Western countries (who then wonder why a lot of Muslims don’t like Westerners very much).
The problem, oddly, is that Israel’s actions in the West Bank and its siege of Gaza are bringing closer the very event which Israeli trumpets it fears every day: that Israel faces destruction......
And We said after Pharaoh to the Children of Israel, "Dwell in the land, and when there comes the promise of the Hereafter, We will bring you forth in [one] gathering."

They aren't going out of their way to avoid killing civilians or elderly people, women, children, and infants.
Of course, you're right, anything Israel does is justified.
