As Gaza Death Toll Surpasses 600 Israel Ambassador Says IDF Deserve Nobel Peace Prize For "Unimaginable Restraint"
The situation in Gaza has crossed beyond the rabbit hole (or perhaps in this case, tunnel) and has entered the surreal zone.
Consider, from Reuters: "Israel pounded targets across the Gaza Strip on Tuesday, saying no ceasefire was near as top U.S. and U.N. diplomats pursued talks on halting fighting that has claimed more than 600 lives." On the other side, Israel's military announced that the total number of army fatalities have risen to 29, three times as many as were killed in the last ground invasion of Gaza, in a 2008-2009 war.
Among the Gaza targets: five mosques, a sports stadium and the home of the deceased Hamas military chief. But why is Israel targeting what are clearly civilian locales? "Israeli military accuses Hamas militants of firing rockets from the grounds of Gaza hospitals and seeking refuge there." Remember, this was supposed to be a "pinpoint military operation."
About 2,000 rockets have been launched over the past fortnight, Israeli military says. The country has also been destroying tunnels that Hamas reportedly constructed from Gaza into Israel to carry out attacks.
Jens Laerke, spokesman of the UN Office for Humanitarian Assistance (OCHA) said at a Geneva news briefing that nearly 500 homes have been destroyed in the Israeli bombardments and 100,000 people have been displaced. Of course, if this had been any other part of the world than Gaza, the UN, the Western media and everyone else would be at arms over the humanitarian crisis that has developed in Gaza. But, well, it's Gaza.
All of this is happening despite Kerry's arrival in the region in an attemp to fix things. Or rather, due to. U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry held discussions in neighboring Egypt, while U.N. Secretary General Ban Ki-moon flew to Israel to see Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and meet on Wednesday with the Palestinian prime minister in the occupied West Bank.
Dispatched by U.S. President Barack Obama to the Middle East to seek a ceasefire, Kerry held talks on Tuesday in Cairo with Egyptian Foreign Minister Sameh Shukri.
"There is a framework ... to end the violence and that framework is the Egyptian initiative," Kerry said at a joint news conference with Shukri.
"For the sake of thousands of innocent families whose lives have been shaken and destroyed by this conflict, on all sides, we hope we can get there as soon as possible," he said.
His words were summarily ignored and dismissed by Israel which has no intention of reducing the soaring body count: ""A ceasefire is not near," said Justice Minister Tzipi Livni, viewed as the most dovish member of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's inner security cabinet. "I see no light at the end of the tunnel," she told Israel's Army Radio."
There is some good news: Kerry said the United States would provide $47 million in humanitarian aid for Gaza. He plans to stay in Cairo until Wednesday morning but has no set departure date from the region.
In other words, the latest Gaza land invasion, which is now far more deadly than the last invasion during the 2008-2009 war, is nowhere near finding a resolution, which perhaps is just the catalyst the S&P 500 needed to keep rising to recorder highs.

But where things get truly surreal, was the statement by Israel’s ambassador to the United States, Ron Dermer, who said on Tuesday that the Israeli army should be given the Nobel Peace Prize for its “unimaginable restraint” in Gaza.
Well, considering Barack "Don't drone me, bro" Obama received it, why not?
During an address at the Christians United for Israel Summit in Washington, Dermer was interrupted several times by hecklers, but delivered a passionate and warmly received speech in defense of Operation Protective Edge, calling Iran the “Great Evil” and accusing the United Nations and human rights groups of inadvertently aiding Hamas in its war against Israel.
“Some are shamelessly accusing Israel of genocide and would put us in the dock for war crimes,” Dermer said. “But the truth is that the Israeli Defense Forces should be given the Nobel Peace Prize… a Nobel Peace Prize for fighting with unimaginable restraint.”
Dermer’s comments followed a statement issued by Foreign Minister Avigdor Liberman, who on Sunday said that the IDF is the “most humane and bravest army in the world.”

I don't assume the political sphere has any moral values, at all, I'm an anarchist
But when even the Russians aren't trying to get political mileage off some random Israel bashing, then the results of Israel's restrain speaks for itself
P.S. A lot of Arab countries are even siding with Israel this time around, they now understand the threat of radical Islam to their own regimes
They're under `continuous rocket attack' because of their actions. It's just too bad the Palestinians don't have nukes.
Careful what you wish for
Might come back to bite you in the ass
If the Palestinians had nukes, the Israelis would have to bargain in good faith.
As it is, they play the long game and gradually steal the Palestinians' homeland from under their feet.
You think Jews are racially superior and thus entitled to take land that had been tilled, tended, and lived on by Arabs for scores of generations?
Fine, please explain. We're all ears.
The population of Gaza is 1.8 million. I agree the IDF could level Gaza, although I think
an hour would probably be too much to ask. The reason Israel does not is because doing
so would be considered genocide and an obvious war crime. Israel would be a pariah state
forever more.
Therefore, in order to deal with the rockets from Gaza, Israel has no choice but to
send the IDF in and, as anyone with a passing interest in military affairs knows,
urban combat is a very difficult sphere to fight in.
With respect to your third point, see my first. With respect to your last point, we
both know why that is, as do many ZH readers:
"There's no such thing as [banned by Tyler] power and if you say there is
they'll destroy you."
Joe Sobran
" Kerry said the United States would provide $47 million "
it's not his money to give away!
NAZI Medal for Isreal, what a joke
Over half of the officers in World War 1 where jews and they didn't had a problem killing Americans or other allies back than.
Weird that that little fact is never really mentioned now does it?
600... Dang... I want a nobel price also! What if I brutally kill and murder 601 woman and children? Or do you need to know somebody on the inside?
Just because the horseshit is fresh doesn't mean you should eat it.
Why not? The Nobel Peace Prize has already been rendered worthless by other mass murdering prize winners. The IDF would be in good company. And named for Alfred Nobel too, granddaddy of 'blowing shit up'. What could be more appropriate?
Dear Fello Zero Hedge Readers,
You all are smart enough to know how propogranda, youtube videos, and pictures can be spun anyway fit. Let me tell you something. I was just in Israel. I have family there, and being a fellow Zero hedge reader I will tell you my experience.
In terms of this comment, the reality is that Israel actually does show unprecented restgraint. Gaza is a densly populated area with around 1.8 Million habitents. Israel is currently defending iteself from rockets. I have a niece in Israel who is one year old, and who is constanly walking with the rest of her day care to the bomb shelter everytime a missle gets launched into Israel. From Tel Aviv you can see the Iron Dome shooting down missles constanly.
In Israel there are many bomb shelters, in every house, every apartment. Everyone who lives in apartements are leaving their door open so when the siren goes off, people can run inside and seak safety. The reality is that without the Iron Dome, and large amounts of shelters Israel would suffer substantial casulaties. Never the less, when looking at the death toll, it is ignorgant to say it is an unbalanced fight. Yes Israel is much better equipped militarily, but it does not give anyone the right to shoot missles in your country regardless of the techonoligy you have to minimize casualities.
There are only 13 Million Jews in the world. There are over 1.3 billion Muslims. Not all muslim are bad, and there are many who come to work in Israel daily. But the reality is that Israel needs to defend itself.
Israel hot shot hundreds if not thousands of missles into Gaza. To have a casuality count of less then 1 person per state of the art lazer guided missle, takes a lot of restraint. Think about it. If Israel wanted the Palestinians to suffer large casualties this can easily be achieved, but when more missles are fired into a densly populated area then the number of casualties, logic would tell you that maybe the Israel's are actually trying to avoid civiliian life.
At the end of the day, I don't care how advanced missle defense systems are, or what guns you use, if someone comes into your home, with a knife, you have every right to use your guns.
Hamas doesn't want peace. They do not value human life. They have tunnels comming into Israel and into Egypt. If the leaders of the Palestian people wanted peace, they would think about using the money they spent on the thousands of rockets to build a functional democracy. But Im sorry, as long as 1 missle if fired into Israel, then the Israel's have every right to go into Gaza, and blow up every launcher, missle, and militia doing this.
Tyler, your very good at what you do. Writing about economics, manipulation, shadow stats, etc. Just keep relgion out of it. These type of posts put your readers up against eachother, and at the end of the day, I am sure you would like to have a united following. Only unitity will can achieve something. Divinding your readers doesn't help the good fight that you are engaged in.
Somehow, you equate the fact that you "just came from Israel" and "have family there" to being a reliable objective voice on what is happening to the people of Gaza?
That's like saying "hey, I know how to treat kids because my cousin is John Wayne Gacy."
Re: Divinding your readers doesn't help the good fight that you are engaged in.
It increased the click count. Like articles about "those people" do.
266-YOU ARE A BLOODY ZIONIST .
WHY DO YOU THINK PALESTINIANS HAVE TUNNELS?
BECAUSE ISRAEL HAS HAD A LONG SIEGE AGAINST GAZA AND THEY NEED SUPPLIES, THEY PROBABLY GET WEAPONS THROUGH IT TOO AS THEY NEED TO DEFEND THEMSELVES AGAINST ZIONIST ATTACKS.
AND IF YOU AND YOUR FAMILY WERE TRAPPED IN A PEN LIKE GAZA YOU WOULD BE DIGGING TUNNELS AS WELL. AS WOULD I, AS WOULD ANYONE.
YOU ARE A FUCKING ,IGNORANT, EVIL HYPOCRITE.
. . . And White Phosphorus Bombs are the pinnacles of discriminant precision.
Actually Israel needs to give back what it stole.
That's pretty much...everything.
Read all about it here:
http://www.balfourproject.org/balfour-and-palestine/
Only two things you need to know:
History shows this to be the case. This conclusion requires no analysis, it only requires reading the history of Zionism.
I´m flooded with tears. Now I understand why all those kids must be burned, killed, all those houses demolished, all that bad people pushed toward a slice of (their own) land of 40 x 14 kilometers. They deserve it for having their nation on what was ment to be Israel.
It's the same as Iraq, Lybia and others, putting their countries around the Western's oil.
I don't care for Israel.
I don't care for Jews.
I agree with your post 100000%.
I'm not sure I can disagree. If Obama deserves it for having done nothing and the EU deserves it for fucking up the lives of nearly everyone in Europe not paid by the EU ..... Why not, for not killing a meager 600 Palistinians. They certainly could have killed a helluva lot more had they not excercised their "unimaginable restraint".
As you say, it is surreal, and so why not?
The restraint is pointless, that is it is counterproductive, not effective. This makes it at best morally and ethically challenged - even accepting that killing in war is OK, killing in an ineffective war is I believe less acceptable. The restraint is therefore a mistake. So, give it a prize? Yes, it's chutzpah. So how about a dual prize, give Hamas a prize also for the brilliant idea of launching thousands of almost entirely ineffective missiles and getting its own citizens killed. Restraint!
So, if she stops screaming, does it cease to be rape?
The restraint is pointless, that is it is counterproductive, not effective.
It's not ineffective. This way the Israelis get to tell everyone how humane they are (we only killed 600!) while they destroy the infrastructure and worldly possessions of hundreds of thousands of Gazans. The Zionists are 'mowing the lawn' as they like to call it, while their controlled opposition (yes, Hamas was a Mossad creation) plays its part in giving ZOG pretexts to allow Israel to carry on stealing Arab land.
I read where they mobilized thousands of reservists to attack Gaza. The idf regulars were inadequate to face hundreds of ill-equipped ragamuffins. Now they are showing great mercy as they methodically blow them to bits.
Such courage should be immortalized by little museums in various American towns.
(And people think I'm the crazy one.)
this guy has a twisted mind. he is a blow in the face of every christian
The Israeli ambassidor gets as many laughs as the very best of the Jewish comedians.
Yes, but unlike most comedians, he can have the hecklers assassinated. And he does.
You meant hackers, didn't you? Anyone here getting a scholarship?
The Israeli prime minister's office said in a statement that students on Israeli university campuses would receive full or partial scholarships to combat anti-Semitism and calls to boycott Israel online. It said students' messages would parallel statements by government officials.
"This is a groundbreaking project aimed at strengthening Israeli national diplomacy and adapting it to changes in information consumption," the statement said.
I'm pretty sure Ghandi never had to pay people to speak well of him.
Missles, Bombs, Tanks, Machine Guns, Phosphorus, Depleted Uranium, Sniper Rifles sent into Concentration Camp. Much more than half are civilians. Hospitals destroyed. Only minutes if any warning given before obliteration.
Does anybody remember if the Nazis bombed, or did military assaults, on the Jewish gettos?
Mr Nut and Yahoo "Put up more walls!"
Ever heard of the Warsaw Ghetto, Lodz and countless other ghettos and concentration camps.
Ever heard of the Warsaw Ghetto, Lodz and countless other ghettos and concentration camps.
Yes, the nazis decimated an entire ghetto the hard way. Do some research.
The human shields aren't working too well. Hamas is over. Cut off. Bye-bye.
So...if Israel is justified in "protecting itself" against rockets that blow up empty fields, then why aren't the Palestinians justified in protecting themselves from the daily oppression and incrusions from their enemy that actually KILL HUNDREDS of CHILDREN?? When Killing hundreds of children becomes a prerequsite for a Nobel prize, then I know SATAN is indeed in charge and his army is winning.
It seems an outlandish statement but the Israeli army truly has shown restraint given that they are capable of inflicting much more death, pain and agony. I suspect however that peace will elude the Jewish people as will restful sleep. Who knows what dreams and determination for revenge they have spawned in some young Plestinian heart.
Fuck the "young palestinian heart." I'm going to enjoy watching the young palestinian hearts come for you american cocksuckers. You fucking punk-bitches. Didn't mean to sugar coat it but....you really are a bunch of punks. All hat (words) and not cattle (action). I piss on you.
It's a soft, gentle rape. Not a hard, violent one. Modest, restrained.
I'm afraid that the IDF will have to share the Nobel Peace Prize with the Jewish settlers who poured gasoline down the throat of a Palestinian teenager and then set him on fire. Sorry, IDF but you won't get all the "glory" - you're going to have to "share" it.
Jewparthied
I HAVE FUCKING HAD IT!!!!! THIS BULLSHIT THAT THE IDF SHOULD GET A NOBEL PRIZE FOR CONSTRAINT UTTERED BY THE AMERICAN AMBASSADOR TO ISRAEL IS THE LAST STRAW.
WE, I MEAN EVERYONE, INCLUDING ZHERS ARE COMPLICIT IN THIS PALESTINIAN MASSACRE UNLESS WE DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT OTHER THAN BITCH ON A DISCUSSION BOARD.
ITS PALESTINIANS TODAY, IT'LL BE US SOON ENOUGH IF WE DON'T STAND UP TO THE NEO FASCISTS.
I AM NOT SEMITIC BUT I AM PROUDLY ANTI ZIONIST.
May as well be Anti-US Federal government because that's who controls their actions.
No you are wrong; Israel, or rather AIPAC controls the American government.
Zionists, Israel, AIPAC, all the same things.
You should support one of the Red or Blue Team presidental candidates. Democracy works, and American prove this every election!
So tell me, what was the *right* number of Hamas missiles that should trigger a military response? What's the right level of provocation that warrants retaliation?
There are no sane people who disagree: Hamas started it.
Hamas was asked to stop it.
Hamas was begged to stop it.
Hamas begged for this. They are betting that people like you will boil over, as you have, and turn on Israel. Why you would support the Hamas butchers is between you a your soul. These are the people who support the death of Israel, the death of the United States, the death of Christianity, and the death of pretty much everything "Western."
But you support them.
Nice work.
This isn't a massacre, it's war. The fact that one side doesn't know how to fight doesn't change that. Perhaps you should think twice before throwing rocks at a lion..
I've been reading ZH since it first started but never contributed before. Thanks for the great humour in the comments section here folks - over the years you've managed to put a smile on faces in situations where often the only alternative has been tears. Keep it flowing. I hope that the good folks here are doing a bit more too, although their staunch positions against tyranny is both admirable and commendable to be a major contribution to a better world for us all. From a cash perspective InterPal is a reliable charity for getting aid in. Tens of thousnds of us Mozzies here in the UK are donating directly, but obviously it's nothing compared to the billions in "aid" that the zionists receive every year from the generous US, EU and UK taxpayers.
Just another 6 being broadcast in the celebration by the death cult celebrating the harvesting of souls.
Here let Professor Lagarde teach you some of their basic math
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QYmViPTndxw
Just to be clear, as the Israeli Prime Minister stated, Israel uses missiles to defend its civilians while Hamas uses civilians to defend its missiles. Until the idiots in the world grasp this, Israel should take out every civilian location that the Hamas dirt bags have infested with their rockets.
The old man’s message provides the proper context for the latest episode in the savage punishment of Gaza. The crimes trace back to 1948, when hundreds of thousands of Palestinians fled from their homes in terror or were expelled to Gaza by conquering Israeli forces, who continued to truck Palestinians over the border for years after the official cease-fire.
The punishment took new forms when Israel conquered Gaza in 1967. From recent Israeli scholarship (primarily Avi Raz’s “The Bride and the Dowry: Israel, Jordan, and the Palestinians in the Aftermath of the June 1967 War”), we learn that the government’s goal was to drive the refugees into the Sinai Peninsula – and, if feasible, the rest of the population too.
Expulsions from Gaza were carried out under the direct orders of Gen. Yeshayahu Gavish, commander of the Israel Defense Forces Southern Command. Expulsions from the West Bank were far more extreme, and Israel resorted to devious means to prevent the return of those expelled, in direct violation of U.N. Security Council orders.
The reasons were made clear in internal discussions immediately after the war. Golda Meir, later prime minister, informed her Labor Party colleagues that Israel should keep the Gaza Strip while “getting rid of its Arabs.” Defense Minister Moshe Dayan and others agreed.
Prime Minister Levi Eshkol explained that those expelled could not be allowed to return because “we cannot increase the Arab population in Israel” – referring to the newly occupied territories, already considered part of Israel.
In accord with this conception, all of Israel’s maps were changed, expunging the Green Line (the internationally recognized borders) – though publication of the maps was delayed to permit Abba Eban, an Israeli ambassador to the U.N., to attain what he called a “favorable impasse” at the General Assembly by concealing Israel’s intentions.
The goals of expulsion may remain alive today, and might be a factor in contributing to Egypt’s reluctance to open the border to free passage of people and goods barred by the U.S.-backed Israeli siege.
The current upsurge of U.S.-Israeli violence dates to January 2006, when Palestinians voted “the wrong way” in the first free election in the Arab world.
Israel and the U.S. reacted at once with harsh punishment of the miscreants, and preparation of a military coup to overthrow the elected government – the routine procedure. The punishment was radically intensified in 2007, when the coup attempt was beaten back and the elected Hamas government established full control over Gaza.
Ignoring immediate offers from Hamas for a truce after the 2006 election, Israel launched attacks that killed 660 Palestinians in 2006, most of whom were civilians (a third were minors). According to U.N. reports, 2,879 Palestinians were killed by Israeli fire from April 2006 through July 2012, along with several dozen Israelis killed by fire from Gaza.
A short-lived truce in 2008 was honored by Hamas until Israel broke it in November. Ignoring further truce offers, Israel launched the murderous Cast Lead operation in December.
So matters have continued, while the U.S. and Israel also continue to reject Hamas calls for a long-term truce and a political settlement for a two-state solution in accord with the international consensus that the U.S. has blocked since 1976 when the U.S. vetoed a Security Council resolution to this effect, brought by the major Arab states.".......

Screw the Neo Cons running Israel. My pick for Obama's confiscated 2008 Nobel Peace Prize to be re-awarded in 2014 is Val Putin.
Why is it about people who rant and rave about Zionists always are the ones reminiscing about their romance of the Soviet Empire and the relics that used to run it?
I guess if you consider the 5-6 million Jews and the 20 million soviet citizens that disappeared, the common denominator must be the love of genocide.
Which makes these calls of the Israelis supposedly committing genocide, as Jesus would say, "laughable".
BS. Russia is not the Soviet Union.
Jews largely killed off Orthodox Russians after the Revolution and were instrumental in the Holodomor in Ukraine. You show me where the 4-5 million Jews were killed by the Soviets. I will grant you for a brief period that Stalin persecuted the Jews but all in all if one group of people could be pinned as responsible for Soviet tyranny then it can only be guess who.
"I will grant you for a brief period that Stalin persecuted the Jews but all in all if one group of people could be pinned as responsible for Soviet tyranny then it can only be guess who."
Communists.
No shit, but Vlady is a Soviet relic and I'm sure his adventures in Crimea are yet another sign he'd like to bring the team back together again.
Your reference to Val... is that a feminized Vlad? Who is Val Putin? Vlad's girlfriend?
I've been to Israel and have nothing but respect and admiration for the Israeli people. They, of all peoples, (spare me your "holocaust is a myth" bullshit....my father was 82nd Airborne and SAW IT), have a right to life. If bus, cafe bombs ever come to America, a lot of you illeducated children will be singing a different tune.
Well ace, " If bus, cafe bombs ever come to America" that's why Rahm is in place. He's got the experience for it......

Israelis do indeed have a right to life. They just don't have the right to live that life on someone else's land.
So... you have nothing but respect and admiration for a bunch of racial supremacists and ethnic cleansers? Do tell.
Do you have a world map of where everyone should live? Do you only have an issue with Israelis?
Presumably if someone threw you out of your house at gunpoint, and then refused to let you and your family back in, you wouldn't need 'a world map of where everyone should live' to tell you you'd had your land stolen... or where it was.
And the irony of asking an anti-Zionist if he has a map showing where everyone should live is pretty fucking delicious, by the way.
do you use hard drugs or just an illiterate ignorant man of history?
do you use hard drugs or just an illiterate ignorant man of history?
I'd describe aspirin as being more more kinda crumbly than 'hard', personally.
You know, I suspect people might find it a bit ironic, you using the written word to ask me if I'm illiterate.
This game is on longer time lines than most would care to assimilate. However if one was to have a look at a geographic map. It is obvious how small of a nation Israel really is. One must ask oneself why is this mound of sand better than the other one. From my Christian perspective and as a human being the palastine population are being used as cannon fodder for another objective.
Yes I believe Michelle Obama is a wookie.
Your president is a communist.
And your right to bear arms will turn the tide of stupidity and ignorance for people all around the world.
I like pies also ..,..

Wonder how on earth the Israelis can treat the Palestinians as they do? Here's the explanation from a former Jew:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZA-JCLYeDro
Yes, "we are superior to the gentile... In intelect and...."
So, israelis are superior
Americans are excepcional
Deutsches are the best...
To put thing worst, we lost the World Cup's Final in the hands of Germany.
What am I, my God, what!!????? I have an existentialistic break down!
LOL.
francis farmer seems to have been showing restaint, after all..
In reality, Netanyahu painted himself in a corner.
Some humorist here said that if Tsahal wanted, they could`ve leveled Gaza in few days.
Sure.
They tried the counterbattery option and they tried air operations option, and both have failed, ie no matter how much ordinance they drop, the rockets keep coming.
Of course, they shoot them down, but at what price? I think the iranian model Hamas is firing costs around 600USD piece, probably much less.
How much costs an Iron Dome missile? 70000USD, around that.
Now they are trying the ground assault option, which in case of israel is the worst thing possible, as their army is small, and the competent part thereof is much, much smaller.
Yesterday, an elite assault battalion got repulsed by a Hamas battalion in some frontier locality, around forty wounded(incl the commanding officer) and seven stone dead when they drove their M113 into an rpg.
Hamas lost around 70, unknown kia.
Israel cannot and will not afford such exchange rate, Hamas can easily.
So, the operational orders are probably , `Umm go there and occupy ShittyLocation 675, then move back, if you see a tunnel here`s an engineer platoon`
Its Vietnam-level idiocy all over again.
I have not heard any commentary directed at Syria or their foes including Free Syrian Army, ISIS, or various other factions. They only murder by thousands, rape, execute prisoners, drop barrel bombs on civilians, deploy poison gas and essentially conduct themselves like beastly German soldiers in the East.
At the rate that these guys murder, it'll take Israel 10 millenniums to kill 10% of the death toll exacted by Muslims on each other. Just the other day they found 33 dead, with their throats slashed outside Baghdad, including 26 women.
Selective outrage, right? If these were Russsians in Chechnya, this board would be jumping up with joy? Look at the deceitful nonsense posted on this board about MH-17? It's unbelievable crap.
Don't forget Chicago.
Fucking poodle.
got the hammer...... USE THE HAMMER
repeatedly until your opponent looses the will to resist...or doesn't exist:
israel 600
Gazans 13
wanna keep playing ...????
Yeah tough guy, and of the 600 you've "dropped the hammer on", roughly 80% have been civilians, women and children.
It is telling when a man feels more like a man after beating the fuck out of a child.
And still you wonder why you are so hated as a race and country?
So tell me, what was the "proper response?" How many missiles are you supposed to "absorb" before you are allowed to retaliate?
We all know that Hamas views women and children as property - property to be exploited. How you can support such a regime is a question you will one day answer for.
Israel has, indeed, shown enormous restraint.
So I ask you again: what is the RIGHT number of missiles that Hamas is supposed to fire before Israel retaliates?
You grab a tiger by the tail you had better have a plan to deal with the teeth. And if your plan is "feed the tiger my babies and hope that the world screams," then you are scum and a coward and you deserve what you get.
Mooslimbs hide behind women and children knowing that tools like you will fall for the propoganda you're falling for. Mooslimbs, if they cared about their women and children would tell them to go away from rocket launchers and the Hamas soldiers. They don't. Are you foolish enough to think Hamas isn't using mosques and hospitals for cover? They do it everywhere. Wake up.
No I don't like Jews or Israel, but in this case I will defend Israel.
where is the outrage against ISIS versus the Christians they are killing....
oh i forgot obama is a muzzie, who trained and funded ISIS, initially with $30 million when they let al baghdadi out of Bagrum prison and for 3 years thereafter and with arms from lybia, trained in jordan and qatar... funded via saudi and qatar...
Well, seriously, most people don't care if "those people" are killed. Jews attract haters. "Those people" attract haters. So, in general, ISIS "those people" killing Christians who are just other "those people" won't really register with the haters. When the Christians killed are NOT "those people", THEN it will be "those people" killing non "those people", and it will be noticed.
You're missing the part of who created ISIS.
.
Probably in the same place as all the indiscriminate killing of non-Christians in Iraq by the US in an illegal war.
That's a real nasty case of tunnel vision ya got there sport.
Israel did not show restraint when they blew up the twin towers on 9/11. So, why would they show restraint to Palestinians...
Fantasy world of conspiracy theories abound on ZH.
"Fantasy world" huh? Here's your fantasy:

IS IT TRUE that in 1941 and again in 1942, the German Gestapo offered all European Jews transit to Spain, if they would relinquish all their property in Germany and Occupied France; on condition that:
a) none of the deportees travel from Spain to Palestine; and
b) all the deportees be transported from Spain to the USA or British colonies, and there to remain; with entry visas to be arranged by the Jews living there; and
c) $1000.00 ransom for each family to be furnished by the Agency, payable upon the arrival of the family at the Spanish border at the rate of 1000 families daily.
2.
IS IT TRUE that the Zionist leaders in Switzerland and Turkey received this offer with the clear understanding that the exclusion of Palestine as a destination for the deportees was based on an agreement between the Gestapo and the Mufti.
3.
IS IT TRUE that the answer of the Zionist leaders was negative, with the following comments:
a) ONLY Palestine would be considered as a destination for the deportees.
b) The European Jews must accede to suffering and death greater in measure than the other nations, in order that the victorious allies agree to a "Jewish State" at the end of the war.
c) No ransom will be paid
4.
IS IT TRUE that this response to the Gestapo's offer was made with the full knowledge that the alternative to this offer was the gas chamber.
5.
IS IT TRUE that in 1944, at the time of the Hungarian deportations, a similar offer was made, whereby all Hungarian Jewry could be saved.
6.
IS IT TRUE that the same Zionist hierarchy again refused this offer (after the gas chambers had already taken a toll of millions).
7.
IS IT TRUE that during the height of the killings in the war, 270 Members of the British Parliament proposed to evacuate 500,000 Jews from Europe, and resettle them in British colonies, as a part of diplomatic negotiations with Germany.
8.
IS IT TRUE that this offer was rejected by the Zionist leaders with the observation "Only to Palestine!"
9.
IS IT TRUE that the British government granted visas to 300 rabbis and their families to the Colony of Mauritius, with passage for the evacuees through Turkey. The "Jewish Agency" leaders sabotaged this plan with the observation that the plan was disloyal to Palestine, and the 300 rabbis and their families should be gassed.
10.
IS IT TRUE that during the course of the negotiations mentioned above, Chaim Weitzman, the first "Jewish statesman" stated: "The most valuable part of the Jewish nation is already in Palestine, and those Jews living outside Palestine are not too important". Weitzman's cohort, Greenbaum, amplified this statement with the observation "One cow in Palestine is worth more than all the Jews in Europe".
european looking jews are killing people that looks like are from there at least for 100 generations ...
Please, don't introduce facts into this genocide. How can they create the Greater Israel with the Palestinians in the middle of it?
That's why they want to find out so badly WHO took flight MH17 down. To give a shared Nobel Peace Price.
OMG.
So how many innocent Israelis would have been killed if they didn't have the iron dome missle system.
I guess most of the jew haters on this board would have been applauding that.
Possibly 100% more, bringing the death toll to TWO!
In honor of King Barry himself, it would have to be a golf clap.
As Israel carries out yet another attack on Gaza, jewelers worldwide continue to conceal the fact that blood diamonds are supporting one of the most abhorrent and prolonged injustices against a defenseless indigenous people. Israel’s “prominent and central position” in the global diamond industry has ensured that diamonds which fund war crimes in Palestine evade regulation. Consumers have been kept in the dark and lied to about the extent of this blood diamond problem responsible for 26/11 Mumbai Attacks.

Three teenage jewish boys murdered and buried... Just fine.
I wonder what Obama's response would have been to Three American teens killed in Mexico would have been?
Crickets.....
border agents murdered by weapons supplied by barry and holder.. idf murdered those 3 kids , see how easy it is? fuckn douche troll. are you paid in sheckels by the word?
Precisely what Obama's actions would have been....crickets. Unless of course those 3 kids murdered were black! Then Holder would move heaven and earth to see they were punished. If they were white, they'd be invited across the border and provided with full entitlement benefits.
lol, psychopaths certainly know how to keep a straight face when they justify, even glorify, their own indefensible enormities.
That the sons and grandsons of the Shoah have created the Warsaw Ghetto in their own lands, with themselves playing the Kapo, is an irony of History that boggles the imagination.
How can man be so perverse against his own claims to being the MORAL SENTINEL of western civilization and Republic all through the ages as carrier of the "yellow star" of ignominy?
And the world looks on and says, "we understand, you must defend yourselves and your colonies and your de facto dire contempt over 50 years of repeated UN resolutions"; the same UN which voted and justified-- against all nation state logic-- at the behest of the winners of WW2, the very creation of Israel for welcoming displaced Europeans and Jewish Africans (Serafads). Without imposing on this newly created State a respect of the Charter of the UN, to protect the basic human rights of those indigenous members of that territory who had been there in Palestine since the wall of lamentations was built and then abandoned by the 12 tribes during the ROman era; whereas those others, the "non elected", had continued to live there for 2000 years as simple peasants during the successive ages of Crusader and Imperial conquests.
"Our Civilization" has double values. But whats new under the Sun ! ??

Constraint: We used white phosphourous instead of mini nukes and clusterbombs.
As far as we know that is.
"Children have been shot in other conflicts I have covered, but never before have I watched as soldiers enticed children like mice into a trap and murdered them for sport."
Christopher Hedges, Pulitzer Prize Winning American Journalist, on assignment in Gaza
But the benevolent IDF would NEVER do that! They merely are bringing peace and tranquility to the world, much like Obama.

See IDF posing with dead body.

Kind of reminds you of the American soldiers taking pictures with dead bodies. I'm sure it's all in the training.
That and Jewish soldiers in US Army.

Hell there's at least that many jews running Fraud street.
Well, the US did move, move again and move again its own indigenous people also. And I don't see ZHers still in arms about it. In fact, many look down their noses at Native Indians -- truth be told.
Syria didn't want them. Jordan didn't want them, Egypt doesn't want them, nor will they donate them a chuck of the Sinai. Interesting.
They need to sort it out -- Winner takes all! Or the MIC game never ends.
Dermer and Liberman suffer from that illness that seems to be common among rabid Zionists: The belief that all the goy are stupid and will believe anything you tell them. That these things are said at a "Christian Zionist" gatherng is very revealing.

Sad, another holocaust in the making
The new hit in Gaza by the new Hit(l)er.
Israel=the New Nazi's
Palistinians=the new "Jews" living in Gaza Concentration Camp
when will they ever learn....God has punished them so many times.....lol
the nobel peace prize is meaningless asshole.....the war mongerers gave one to the war president whose 3 gay ex boyfriends were murdered on his account...and the war president's murders in ukraine, afghanistan, guantanamo, and anywhere a drone can fly are legendary...
his support for the murdering terrorist state of israel is reprehensible.....and all the while manchelle is douching himelf with with a leaky douche bag.
I think we need to bring back the firing squad, guillotine, and hanging, back for most all of our Pols and the "rulers" i mean do they REALLY deserve to live? They waste valuable lives, oxygen and space upon our dear planet-they are Traitors to the human race
After thousands of missiles have been fired into Israel from Gaza it's time to use the Grozny approach or the cycle will continue. Hamas are the bad guys. It's on them.
There is no possible way 19 Arab hijackers armed with box cutters were able, within a few hours, succeed in bringing down a multi-trillion dollar U.S. defense and intelligence infrastructure.
