Israel has made its first artillery strikes on the Gaza strip since the 1967 Middle East war, knocking out power and plunging Gaza City into darkness. Missiles were fired at Palestinian targets overnight and Israeli planes flew fresh raids in the territory today.
A summit between the Israeli and Palestinian leaders was shelved as a result of the unrest.

"The United States is a superpower … They have to assume their responsibilities and take action to stop these [Israeli] operations that could provoke a collapse of the situation," he said.
But, we DID do our part as a superpower here, Mr. Abbas; we sold 'em the missiles, and the satellite intel as to where to aim 'em.
Stop shelling Israel and she'll stop shelling you. Absent that, you're out of your mind and evil and I hope she obliterates you.
Artillery shells are a much more cost effective method of killing terrorists
BUT BUT We'll just be another apostate interfering in Muslim lands! Screw you Abbas - take an early retirement.
Bwhahahah, like they had electricity or something!
Great! Wipe those bastards out....
That must be some high tech artillery to shoot missiles. Normally they shoot shells.
push them into the sea and be done with it
Amen
I could desperately grab for a dictionary and show some obscure sub-definition of missile that's technically correct, but I'm not a liberal, so I'll just say:
Ooops, meant artillery. :)
Those savages don't want peace. That's obvious to the world. No matter what Israel does, it's NEVER going to be enough. The only one who believes there's going to be peace through appeasement is President Bush! Islam, will have to be squashed before ANY peace will ever be possible.

Abbas! Leh tezayen kivsa! (translation not PG rated).
That's what the Israelis did, and then sprayed a king-sized can of RAID on the assembled $#!t-eating flies.
What the liberals in this country fail to realize is that GW had done just that in Iraq.
No flies at our picnic on American soil -- just a lot of fly-swatters and RAID killing a bunch of Islamo-diptera as the jihad swarms across the borders from Syria and Iran....
FINALLY, Sheesh it is 'bout time! Israel, you may want to turn the artillery a bit more to the right and hit something other than a dirt lot.
I sorta doubt they needed any satellite intel for that. We may have sold them the missiles, or they may have made them themselves, they have gotten pretty good at that sort of thing, out of the obvious necessity.
Israel supplies the power to Gaza and water too. Guess where I would open a pig wash facility?
