This striking image shows Israel's Iron Dome anti-missile system in action on the left, and rockets fired overnight towards Israel from Beit Lahia in the northern Gaza Strip on the right.

While the most significant weaponry in the Palestinians' arsenal is their wide variety of ground-to-ground missiles, Israel is the vastly more powerful player.

Its air force, armed drones and intelligence-gathering systems enable it to strike targets in Gaza pretty much at will

This is all desperately sad, I've always felt more needed to be done to bring about the 2 Nation solution hopefully.

However, I've never faltered in my view, Israel are not the warmongering Nation some deem them to be.

They are a Nation surrounded by enemies.

Yes, there's wrongs on both sides, there always will be on these sad conflicts.
However I still come down to the right of Israel to defend itself.
I'm not saying they do all that's right, then again neither do the other side too.

I know you and I don't talk anymore, but I just want to say how refreshing it is to see someone on the Left looking and the WHOLE picture.

this conflict just has to end already, has been going on for far too long


just get rid of Hamas from the country, and you can steer the innocent palestinian people into giving them freedom, and a chance to live in peace


the Hamas terrorists want nothing but chaos, also that they just innocents as human shields is disgusting

At the end of the day, Israel is guilty of Apartheid and Human Rights abuse. Both are undeniable and is recognised by several different authorities on these issues. Hamas are just as bad, but it's the palestinian citizenry that are being targetted, abused and killed. I believe the latest war crime Israel have comitted, has been an air strike on a refugee camp, killing 10 people (8 of which were children).

Israel won't stop until they commit genocide against the palestinian populace. I honestly believe that, because no one will stop them, and the world will be happy to watch innocent civilians die because we can just think 'oh well, they're probably terrorists anyway.'

Apparently Israel have purposefully airstriked Al Jazeera News. They gave warning befirehand but now the building is gone, along with all the private homes the building housed.

It's just yet another war crime comitted by Israel, I suppose at least they didn't actually kill any journalists this time. I'm glad this wasn't the 16th instance of a journalist dying to Israel's violence.

I think printing them afterwards would be a pretty stupid thing to do.
