Breaking: Israeli military escalation in Gaza

[Solomon2]

Shooting someone in his own land in an occupied territory for business of annexing the land over a thrown rock is injustice and unacceptable.

Garbage in, garbage out, Hazzy. When you start your argument from shaky premises, what follows can be discounted. And you've admitted before that you're willing to lie to achieve your ends.

So there's no reason for the Pakistanis to believe in you OR the "Palestinian cause" - what they do know is that their government limits their freedom under its banner. Some Pakistanis may therefore resent the "Palestinian cause" and its champions - including you. And because they're currently not permitted to speak openly about it, you'll never really know who is who.

Israel is the dominant power in the Mid east. It killed hundreds of Arabs, none lifted a finger. Now, very likely it seems EU will abandon Iran nuclear deal as well(USA is a hundred time bigger market than Iran). This will eliminate any challenge to Israel's total dominance in the region.

Total dominace is too big a word.. they dominate civilian Palestinians under their control..and not much the armed factions.. and it stops there as far as the region is concerned..

Four Palestinians killed by Israeli forces

Health officials in the Gaza Strip say the number of Palestinians killed by Israeli forces during protests near the fence with Israel has risen to four.

Yousef al-Fasih, 29, was shot dead while demonstrating in the eastern Gaza Strip, Palestinian news agency Wafa said.

More than 600 people were wounded by Israeli forces, including photographer Mohammed Abed al-Baba, who was shot in the leg.

Al-Baba, who has worked for AFP news agency in the Gaza Strip since 2000, was shot while clearly identified in a press vest and helmet, around 200 metres from the fence east of Jabalia in northern Gaza.

Gazans send a booby-trapped balloon that says "I ❤ You"

Hamas has pledged to send 5000 fire-balloons and kites to Israel today, in another round of protests that the UN and Human Rights Watch say are non-violent and pose no danger.

This morning, Israeli police found and deactivated a booby-trapped balloon that says "I Love You." From what I can tell, it appears that there was a small explosive attached that could have blown off a child's finger.




Meanwhile, children from an Israeli kibbutz near the Gaza border, Nir Am, plan to send green balloons with candy to the children of Gaza tomorrow as the Eid al Fitr holiday ends.

Because obviously the Israelis are the aggressors.

Lol, yeah I'm sure Palestinians have a good memory of these 'peaceful gestures' ....:

The estimated cost of the total ammunition used in Gaza fighting is estimated at about 1.3 billion shekels [$370 million]. According to the army’s figures, 39,000 tank shells, 34,000 artillery shells, and 4.8 million bullets were supplied during the fighting. Senior military figures estimate that land forces alone used at least 60 percent of the 5,000 tons of ammunition given to them, but the IDF [Israeli army] cannot yet evaluate it accurately.
