GAZA CITY, Gaza – Israeli airstrikes and Hamas rockets resumed after a brief pause Wednesday to allow food and fuel to reach Palestinian civilians in Gaza, where an Israeli warplane dropped leaflets urging some residents to flee because of imminent attacks.

Even as the Israeli government tentatively welcomed a cease-fire proposal from Egypt and France, its military was instructed to continue its assault on Hamas.

Imagine the response if Mexico started lobbing Qassams into El Paso.

Can’t imagine how you can be patient when the goobers on the other side of the fence are lobbing rockets into your backyard.

If my family had to live daily like these, I'd be bombing the h3ll out of the attackers until there wasn't anything left. This is no way to live.

My house was hit by these Israeli bullets!..........

[gathersnomoss]

How did this picture get out into public? Why, this just can’t be true!?!?!?!?!

Puck the MSM.

[manc]

mmmm what is the IDF now throwing rounds instead of firing them

course the left wing and the muslims around the world will not realise that those rounds have not been fired and it is a lie by the women as is most of what the palestinians say

[Oldpuppymax]

You gotta love the picture of the Muslim woman holding the bullets. “My house was hit by these Israeli bullets...” What did the IDF do...throw them??!! Unbelievable that Israel’s leadership is so spineless that it permits MSM fraud like this to dictate policy. What a disgrace.

[Tex Pete]

Maybe it's just me, but that woman looks very similar to our dear old wailing woman from 2006...

[Red Badger]

She was actually in Iraq at the time her house was hit by those bullets...........

Strange, i remember a nearly-identical pictures from a few years back.

[Prole]

I suspect that the Reuters vermin and other propagandists are going to be more careful with their LIES and DECEPTION since the bloggers nailed them in Beirut.

[Red Badger]

Too bad they weren't these instead............

[Red Badger]

Yes, she gets around........

[dadgum]

Geez, she looks alot like Uncle Fester...

[nufsed]

Mexico would not do that. They would kill too many Mexicans.
