Why did the USA get involved in this unsolvable mayhem? Wiser heads in the 1940s warned Truman to keep neutral with no choosing of sides.

4 CHEERS FOR ISRAEL. They weren’t even mentioned in the article. Never know it reading some of the comments below. Not a single comment about Hamas. Lovely outfit, indeed.

Israel is a nuclear power plant of toxic Karma
and they have absolutely no one to blame but themselves, but blame, complain, attack, distract, distort, deflect and deny they will. All at the contemptable expense of everyone else.
Keep lying to yourselves Israel, its what you do best.”“”“”“”

Most likely, if this continues, Hamas will launch enough rockets into Israel to get them to start another military incursion. They count on this (over)reaction to create the “we have a dangerous illtempered neighbor, we need the hardliners” effect.

Well, this is what the U.S. Israel have wanted…both are instigating civil war among palestinians to advance their agenda.

Since so many of us humans can’t seem to get along with one another at this stage in our evolution and since “negotiated settlements” usually aren’t worth the time and effort to put them on paper, I guess the only effective way to get any peace at all is to take a page from our early ancestor’s “Book of Getting Along With Your Neighbors.”:
Simply have all your most powerful warriors pick up the biggest clubs they can find, and send them off to raid your enemy’s village in the dead of night… and to make sure every man, woman and child is murdered. If even one escapes to reproduce you’re only going to have to do it all over again. Kill ‘em all… the first time!
Problem solved. Peace.

Quote: “Hamas spokesman Sami Abu-Zuhri told the BBC that every Palestinian had the right to stage demonstrations but that some of the protesters had thrown stones at buildings in Gaza.”
Sure, you have the “right” to protest, just don’t you dare DO it.
