Hezbollah Offers Support for Gaza Resistance

It's highly possible that it was hit with Hamas rockets.

It's guaranteed it would not have happened without Israel's illegal occupation of Gaza.

Gaza is not occupied by definition.

Whose definition, yours?

"Israel unilaterally disengaged from Gaza in September 2005, and declared itself no longer to be in occupation of the Strip.

"However, as it retains control of Gaza's airspace and coastline, it continues to be designated as an occupying power in the Gaza Strip by the United Nations Security Council, the United Nations General Assembly[12] and some countries and various human rights organizations.[13][14][15][16]"

so the poor Palestinians have never and would never do the very same thing?
it's war shit happens.

It's not war. Israel is the Occupying Power of Gaza; that means Jews have no right to drop 1,000 pound iron fragmentation bombs on the civilian population of those they occupy. The entire occupation, under which Israel has nearly complete control of the sea, air, and borders of Gaza, is illegal. Israel has no rights in Gaza, only responsibilities.

bullshit it's just another chapter of the war that been going on since Israel was founded.

Israel's War of "Independence" ended in July of 1949 after expelling over 700,000 indigenous Arabs from farms, homes, businesses, and bank accounts. 200,000 Arabs were herded into Gaza where they and their descendants have "lived" ever since. Founding a Jewish state in Palestine in 1948 where Jews numbered around 1/3 of the total population is a major cause of the violence that's gone on ever since.

wow nice logic ,none of this drawn out war would have happened if the war mongers on both sides were taken to task..
I guarantee it.

If those who get rich from wars were the first to watch their children die, war would end in less that one generation.

This one was sound asleep when the heroic Jew blasted a shell through his wall, and his neighborhood was quiet with no Hamas rockets hidden beneath his bed. Sure hope it never happens to anyone you know

Sure, if you feel Hiroshima or the Nazis make the Jews look good in this particular situation, feel free. Maybe you can find some tweets?

"'I tweet, therefore I am,” writes 24-year-old Muhammed Suliman. Under the bombs, tweets are a way for Muhammed to notify himself and others that he has survived the offensive thus far...'

"Muhammed’s tweets become a narration of his life and the lives and deaths of other Palestinians in Gaza. His feed reads like a nail-biting and heart-pumping novel, or a collection of visceral haikus, only this isn’t literature but a compressed report of Muhammed’s observations, thoughts, and feelings. Real apocalyptic scenes squeezed through the filter of social media.

"Petrified, my ears buzz and don’t seem to recover. Leila’s stomach starts hurting. Each blast sounds louder and more horrifying. Death nears.'"
