Wait for it . Israeli response will be called ‘disproportionate’ . So what is a proportionate response, lob 800 or so rockets back at gaza with no guidance systems. U.N is a useless junket fest. p

You think they would be smart to nuke hamas, the palestinians and “the whole region”. Is that what you said?

Israel defends itself, and the Arab world goes nuts?

The time of the big hurt approaches. Israel will water the desert sands with them once again.

Isn’t today Wednesday? So has the meeting already happened or is it going on now or are they talking about next week?

So the Muslims shoot all kinds of rockets and Israel and Israel is in trouble when it takes action?

Why should I care when American Jews who are overwhelmingly liberal would use me to wipe their asses?

America will now be fully judged by God for abandoning Israel.

Right - so where was their emergency meeting when Hamas started sending the many rockets they are now sending, causing Israeli citizens to have to leave their homes?

“I wish we could move the UN to the Gaza Strip and put a few Hamas rocketeers on it’s roof...
Yeah, I’d love to find out how they like being in the yellow circle. “

I was thinking Mogadishu, but Gaza works just as well.

I’d really like ot see Israel attack the U.N. in “retaliation” for the attacks on Israel. Might be a good show to watch as Israel kicks their butts as well.

Don’t worry about Obummer, he’ll be golfing during the whole event.

U.N.: Islam attacks Israel—good, but Israel hits back—bad.

U.N. = farce.
