"Fry'em."
I’m sure the west will call for “restraint”
The Israelis should cut power and water to the Gaza Strip. Period. Just stop it. And wall up any access points from Gaza into Israel. No one in through Israel. No one out through Israel.
Which side will get sympathy and help from our administration?
And it was just exactly this period of time that the phony activist Medea Benjamin planned to be in Gaza for the so-called Women’s Day. She’s earned the status of being listed as a terrorist group.
Religion of peace my hip pockets. A religion, or rather, a cult of murder, rape, pedophiles, thieves, punks, and liars. Darn, sounds like the Obama administration.
Israel, send the Gazans back home to Egypt, retake the Sinai, and then announce your readiness for a genuine (for a change!) peace...
“The Islamic Jihad took responsibility for firing some of the rockets at Israel, and indicated that the attack was retaliation for the Tuesday killing at the hands of the IDF of three Islamic Jihad operatives as they prepared to fire at Israel from the Gaza Strip.”
Israel should just mow the Gaza Strip down, and everything in it.
And pushing the people there into the Sinai.
The Islamic Jihad took responsibility for firing some of the rockets at Israel, and indicated that the attack was retaliation for the Tuesday killing at the hands of the IDF of three Islamic Jihad operatives as they prepared to fire at Israel from the Gaza Strip.
“The Al-Quds Brigades responded to (Israeli) aggression with a volley of rockets,” the group said in a statement Wednesday, minutes after the rocket attack.
So, jihadis try an attack on Israel, it is foiled by the IDF, so the jihadis "retaliate" because of Israeli "aggression"?!?
It's not "aggression" when you're defending yourself from attack. The attackers are the "aggressors". And how is it "retaliation" against you when you attempted to instigate harm initially? That's not "retaliation". It's "damn, you caught us the first time we tried to hurt you, so now we'll try again."
What a bunch of morons those jihadists are.
DEBKAfile March 12, 2014, 7:39 PM (IST)
Israel tanks fired at two terrorist targets in southern Gaza after the pro-Iranian Jhad Islami claimed responsibility for firing up to 70 rockets in a continuous barrage Wednesday against the Shear Hanegev region and the towns of Sderot and Netivot. Many thousands of citizens warned by red alerts ran for shelter and were warned by the authorities to stay there. No immediate reports of casualties but damage was caused to property."
Quick, ,someone send Kerry to South Israel!

my educated guesstimater tells me an invasion of Gaza is imminent - or should be!
Why did it take 'hours'?..............It should have been minutes.................
I’m surprised the Israelis don’t have radar-guided return-fire artillery. Even better would be semi-sentient AUTOMATED radar-guided return-fire artillery.
The Israelis should fight back with trigonometry.
Specifically with unmanned surveillance balloons they could have extensive real time observation of the vast majority of the Strip.
And then they could use even more trigonometry, when they detect Paleos setting up mortar and rocket positions, to stick artillery rounds in their ear before they can even launch.
I would go a step further with a bit of wit. In that the Paleos have no problem with using human shields to protect their launch sites, the Israelis could respond by crafting air burst artillery rounds that contain high expansion anti-riot “sticky foam”.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sticky_foam
Sticky foam is a goo that when it lands on people or objects becomes a very gummy, sticky substance that soon hardens and is a major pain to remove. A relatively small amount of it can immobilize a person, and getting it off equipment, in this case mortars and rocket tubes, is several hours of hard work. And if they try to fire that weapon, the round will blow up in the tube.

2 Kings
Tanakh, Jewish Publication Society
...And he said: 'It is Elijah the Tishbite.'
1:9 Then the king sent unto him a captain of fifty with his fifty. And he went up to him; and, behold, he sat on the top of the hill. And he spoke unto him: `O man of God, the king hath said: Come down.' 1:10 And Elijah answered and said to the captain of fifty: 'If I be a man of God, let fire come down from heaven, and consume thee and thy fifty.' And there came down fire from heaven, and consumed him and his fifty.
1:11 And again he sent unto him another captain of fifty with his fifty. And he answered and said unto him: 'O man of God, thus hath the king said: Come down quickly.'
1:12 And Elijah answered and said unto them: 'If I be a man of God, let fire come down from heaven, and consume thee and thy fifty.'...
