"I moved out of my house out of fear. They were bombarding near my house."-- without bothering to mention Hamas was bombarding Israeli houses for weeks beforehand, daring Israel to do something about it. The obvious intention is to provoke another little war that Israel will call off once Hamas has thrown enough Arabs under the tank treads, thus enabling Hamas' declaring victory as the surviving underdog and further advance the global creep of anti-Semitism. And it will probably work.

A pox on 'em
I like how even the VOA's brief mention of the Gaza fighting quotes a Gazan journalist --

The U.S. media doesn't appear to be so horribly biased against Israel this time as it was during the Lebanon thing. I wonder if it's because they're waiting to see what Obama's going to do/say. But yeah, God forbid that Jews should defend themselves, and competently too. Oy.
what Paula said.
I have little sympathy for the hard liners on both sides. It is obvious none of them want peace.
The Gaza slaughter makes the same sense as the US invading Iraq and occupying Afghanistan to fight terrorism. Now, dozens are killed every week by terrorism. It only strengthens the hatred and cycle of violence, not to mention giving the radical elements their desired power.
Peace will never come when a hundred Palestinians are killed for every Israeli. Isn't that the same ratio of Nazi retaliation for French Underground resistance?
Self defense is nullified when innocents are blown to pieces.
I haven't seen any diplomacy since Bush green lighted the Israeli right wingers.
Terrorism is a criminal act, not an excuse to punish a population. Both the US and Israeli right wing governments are more interested in dominance than peace. That's my "un-American and anti-Israeli" position.
