Israelis are not doing enough. They are not protecting themselves. I don't get it. So they targeted some rocket launching sites that turned to be civilian backyards... Whose fault? If I were to target someone a mile away, I would never do it from my mother's( brother's, grandma's, neighbor's...) backyard, but Gaza Arabs don't think like me, they do it because they gain political points, which are so important to them, even more important then the lives of their loved ones(although, I don't think think someone that capable of hate is capable of love).\nAnyway, those coward Israelis happen to kill civilians, and what do these Jew cowards do? They sincerely apologize, and they immediately stop targeting those rocket launchers to avoid further casualties, and by that they put their own people in danger!\nJews will always get attacked for as long as they are being too damn soft on their enemy.

IT is about time someone spoke up,and thanks for your courage.Under the protection of the united states Israel has behaved so badly in it's dealing with its enemies.When one objects to their inhumane behavior,they raise the antisemitic flag.This is supposed to quell opposition to their actions.

Why don't you Israel bashers acknowledge that the Israelis were retaliating for rocket and mortar attacks that were launched from a civilian neighborhood? Blame the coward terrorist who hide amongst civilians, not Israel. And if it were not for U.S. pressure on Israel, they would have overrun all the Palestinian territories already. They don't fool around with their security.

because it would make israel look like the aggressor...its better to be perceived as the victim, you can get away with more and have a better chance to gain international support for any retaliations.

umm... lets see... the holiday just ended, people are still recovering from the suicide bombing in tel aviv, the new government was sworn in, israel is trying to decide how to respond to the outrageous bombing... \nthings are pretty much the same- the arabs are being barbaric and hypocritical, the world is blind to the arabs evil and the total lack of justice...\nthat pretty much sums up whats going on around here- yes, i live in israel!!

Yes I care. I think that the violence will continue as long as Israel pretends to be the good guy. I admire the tenacity of the Palestinians they stand up for what they believe to be right and will fight a tank with a rock they believe that strongly. I admire that kind of strength in any human. They could give up and accept defeat but they dont. They are willing to stand up to Israel and the US and not many countries do that. I am sorry about your relatives.

NO \nIran backs Hamas--so Yes to the terrorist attacks.

Good question,   Bush and Blair made up their own warped minds over Iraq didn't they.\n\nMy main concern is that Palestinians are labelled terrorists\nbut not Israel who people seem to think are the good guys.\n\nI personally think Israel's actions over stealing Palestinian land and their apartheid regime constitute terrorism of the Palestinian nation.\n\nAlso what about Mugabe, he has terrorised his own country.

To see Israel as an innocent attempting to live peacefully in a neighbourhood of thugs requires intellectual dishonesty and to claim that the Israelis had their backs to the wall and were forced into the destruction, measured beyond all proportion, of property and human beings in Lebanon and Gaza requires the moral lassitude inherent in imperial civilization.\nHezbollah did not exist before the 1982 Israeli invasion of Lebanon. The culprit then was the PLO, and then, as now, Israeli self-defence was the excuse behind a cynical attempt to destroy Palestinian nationalism and secure land for annexation in the West Bank. \nRecently, there were two daring attacks against military targets and Israeli soldiers were captured by Hamas and Hezbollah. These attacks happened because Israel and its patron refused to accept the results of the Palestinian election. \nOf course, before Hamas was elected, there was simply no partner for peace. Translation: There is no Palestinian leadership that will accept the injustice the Israelis want to impose.

Permanent Peace will be reached with justice first. Zionist Jewish Fundamentalists established thier State, Israel, on Palestinian lands. Palestinian farmers and villagers and townsmen were kicked out of thier homes inside Palestine and were exiled in many countries as refugees. They must be immediately compensated and allowed to return to thier homes and lands to get back to thier normal lives, instead of living miserable lives in Refugee camps in other countries. Since when was it okay to take someone's country just because some people claim God gave it to them like what the zionists have done?? Palestine is a normal country under occupation. Just like the Iraqi thugs where kicked out of Kuwait, the Israeli thugs will be kicked out of Palestine too isa. Iraq's Saddam and Israel's Generals did the same mistake and I see no reason why we should favour one thug over the other. Justice MUST NOT be PREFERENTIAL. When the Palestinians regain thier independence from Israeli occupation, oil pricess will DIVE and the arms race in that region of the world will for the first time come to a complete standstill. It's time the Middle Eastern people had a break, Israel's occupation of Palestine must end today before tomorrow.

we just forgot all about it... there was no conflict 100 years ago.. it is all about the lost rights of Palastinian ppl in havin thier own land and the lost right of all muslims to get thier Aksa Mousqe in Jersualem back.. and the west is protecting Israel with all means.. in order to not give the muslims thier rights... i condem any terrorist attack on any country... but we should ask our selves why these ppl are doing so.. i think it is thier dispair in getting our rights... it is not the well to kill.. or that islam tell us to kill.. we have to be objective and not shallow when we think about it.. the medie story telling is so so so misleading about the truth of the whole coflict.. if we can solve the Plastanian Islreali conflect then i thnk no confict will find place.... but the problem that they want to force ppl to accept what is on the real site... regarding the rights of muslims.. then the conflict happen..... you can tolerate in your personal right.. but you can not in your reliogous rights... and if you ask muslims to do so... then why dont Jews do it..

Because the idea that they attack us from the "hatred of freedom" is silly.\n\nAt the core, the current troubles in the mid-east are an internal muslim civil war. These countries are caught between their own culture, which has a rich history, and modernizing, which comes with the risk of "westernization." (Until the seventeenth century the Islamic kingdoms were more advanced than their European counterparts.)\n\nThe attacks against the west are, in general, attacks against the source of modernization in the mid-east, and against the US in particular, the source of money for various authoritarian governments.\n\nThat does not mean we shouldn't fight terrorists and protect ourselves. Of course we should. But to understand this "war" we need to deal with the root causes - and those are all in the mid-east.\n\n("War" in quotes, because, as horrific as acts of terror have been, the current situation is nothing compared to WWI or WWII, or to the possibility of species extinction that came with the Cold War.)\n\nAdded:\nAlthough this is a minority opinion, I think the ultimate source of Arab anger against Israel is part of the internal muslim civil war. Of course the Arabs have grievances (as do the Israelis), but external Arab governments have done nothing but enflame the situation for 50 years. There are many cases of tragic explusions of peoples (Greeks from Western Turkey after WWI, the India-Pakistan split, Germans from Prussia and Poland after WWII), but in these cases other countries have attempted to settle the newcomers and establish new communities. This, tragically, has never happened for the Palestianians.\n\nIn my opinion, the Palestians have been cruely used by external Arab governments as a way to distract their own people from internal problems due to corruption and poor government.

Well, I guess the answer to this question is really in your "heart."  Are you outraged by attacks on civilians in the heart of your own country?  Are you deeply offended to know that civilians in Iraq (and other countries) are slaughtered so that "righteous" religious factions can make a (dubious) point?  Does it bother you at all that any low life dirt bag can claim "jihad" and attack anyone he or she wants without provocation?  if these, and any one of a thousand other wrongs, being called "right" by riffraff who only want to blame their bad actions on someone else, are offensive to you, then we are doing the right thing.

That this case is old does not solve the problem. There is no legitimacy for Israel identity in Islam world. They are completely new nation. Even they don't have certain race. One from Russia other from Iran other from England etc. Isn't it funny? These people have answered above are trying to say that to oppose each other is not a good idea. That maybe right and I am agree more or less. But the reality doesn't change. The reality is that there were Jews in England and they were almost reach, supported by England government and start campaign for Zionism. The Israel is a racist country too. Look at Arabs and Daroozis inside Israel. How they are behaved. They kill daily a few Palestinians and they killed their leaders like Ahmad and Rentisi. In Islamic world opinion there is no reason for "defending" Israel at all. They were cruel not Palestinians. They have occupied a soil, not Palestinians.

what else should they say. they attacked to steal oil? that doesn't sound good. it even may sound worse if they say they atacked to server israel's interest.

Israel was invaded by Palestinians in this attack.  Israel has been under almost constant bombardment since leaving Gaza.  Israel has the right to defend itself when attacked.  This response is way overdue.

Oh well they also claim that Palestinians are not people and therefor have no right to the land. \n No I would not be willing to give up my land. Palestine should have accepted the land they were offered by the UN in 1948 instead of being so stubborn about it. I am not saying the UN was right to create Israel out of someone eles land, but it would have solved alot of problems.\n Oh no don't get me wrong I completely sympathize with the Palestinian people. Israeli soldiers cross into Palestinian land and kidnap their government leaders and put them in jail claiming they are terrorists. No No No not for one second do I believe Israel to be in the right. \n I just think given the way the world works Palestine should have accepted a compromise, Im not sure if that would have even mattered since the Zionist regime in Israel has stated that they will not be happy until they control the entire middle east.
