President emphasizes backing of Jewish state’s right to defend itself against rocket fire, says current offensive focused on tunnels.
President Barack Obama said Friday that he encouraged Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to minimize civilian deaths in Israel’s ground push into Hamas-ruled Gaza, while letting him know that the US supports Israel’s right to self defense
“No nation should accept rockets being fired into its borders,” Obama told reporters at the White House. The US president said he spoke by phone with Netanyahu earlier in the day, over the sounds of sirens going off in the background in Tel Aviv, and told him Secretary of State John Kerry is prepared to travel to the region.

Hey Star Traveler. Read the whole article and do your own research.
We have enough idiots around here.
Do some serious digging and learn the truth!
Obama and John Brennan have been supplying Hamas with weapons and cash.
Sorry you think it ain't happening. Boo Fricken Hoo.
Get with the program.
Trace the weapons. Hamas is being supplied by Brennan and Obama.
You haven't seen it? Well gosh and golly, then.
If you haven't seen it...it mustn't be happening.
You are as narcissistic as Obama.
It's all about "you."
I’ve seen how Obama supported the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt, but I wasn’t talking about that. I know how Obama has supplied support to the Syrian rebels, many of them Islamic terrorists. I’ve seen how the Islamic terrorists were helped in Libya. And although I’ve posted about “those things” before, those are not the things I’m talking about.
I’m talking about Gaza and Hamas. It’s “this” that I’ve seen absolutely nothing about. I’ve never seen that the USA is supplying money or arms to Hamas in Gaza.
What I see you talking about is what is going on elsewhere in the world, but not about what is going on I’m Gaza.
He's a muslim convert...and he's delivering weapons to our enemies.
Will you please catch up. We are waiting for you.
Perhaps you should take a breather.
Your ego has gotten ahead of your ability to think.
Perhaps you should travel to one of your stars.;-)
You keep talking about a lot of other things, but that’s not what I mentioned originally or what my posting has been about in the last week. It’s about Hamas in Gaza.
The USA is not providing money to Hamas in Gaza and the USA is not providing weapons to Hamas in Gaza. That’s the long and short of it.
Now, having said that ... I also said if someone can provide any credible news story about the USA providing arms and money to Hamas in Gaza, that would certainly be enlightening.
BUT ... the USA is not doing it, you see ...
I’ve been posting the news accounts on the operation for about the last week (and there is a huge number of them), and not ONE SINGLE NEWS ARTICLE in all this reporting from Israel and about Israel has ever said a single word about Obama or Brennan supplying any such thing to Hamas in Gaza ... not a single word!
Benghazi!
Where do you think the manpads were going?
Don't you know what John Brennan's black ops were doing? I gave you the link.
And you ignored it.
Libyan manpads were sent to Egypt and transferred to Hamas.
This is about Hamas in Gaza.
Come on, Star Traveler. Get with the program...or at least try to sober up.
You’re saying it ... but there are no news reports saying it.
Again ... there are hundreds of news reports about Gaza, and Hamas’ weapons there and rockets and so on ... but there is not one single word in any of those hundreds upon hundreds of articles from news agencies all over the world ... saying that Israel is going in to get weapons that the USA (or Obama and Brennan) supplied to them, there.
You’ll have to excuse me for not taking “your statement” on that. What I’ve been doing is posting articles from these different news agencies to get the facts of what is going on.
If you could do the same about this Gaza-Israel-Hamas thing, that would be fine by me.
And by the way, here are the news articles I have posted ...
http://www.freerepublic.com/tag/stisraelhamas/index
Let me know if I’ve missed something in them about Obama and Brennan supplying Hamas in Gaza.
From January 2013 in Egypt, when Obama bud Morsi was in charge and the Egyptian military was looking to embarrass him. Also just months after the Benghazi attack.
http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/163874
...Egyptian security forces have seized U.S.-made anti-tank and surface-to-air missiles destined for Gaza, security officials said on Friday...
Are you really understanding what I’ve said here. What I’ve said is that the USA is NOT SUPPLYING money and arms to Hamas in Gaza.
And then what do you do ... you give me an article where the USA and Egypt have a joint program to STOP HAMAS from stealing and smuggling arms into Gaza ...
Quoting from your article ...
The activity against the weaponry smuggling is part of Egyptian-U.S. coordination, agreed upon in the discussions involving Secretary of State Hillary Clinton two days before the end of the operation.

SO ... when Egypt and the USA cooperate to STOP SMUGGLING ... you call that proof that the USA is supplying arms and money to Hamas in Gaza ... LOL ...
Also note the following ...
US blocked Qatari funds intended for Hamas employee
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3180818/posts
The United States has blocked the transfer of Qatari funds earmarked for the salaries of civil servants hired by Hamas in Gaza, The Times of Israel has learned.
A diplomatic source in the Gulf state, speaking on condition of anonymity, said that Qatar had transferred hundreds of millions of dollars to Arab Bank for the salaries of some 44,000 Hamas civil servants. Those civil servants — employed by Hamas in Gaza since its takeover of the Strip in 2007 – were rendered jobless by the unity agreement with Fatah last month.
But the money was never processed by Arab Bank and delivered to Hamas, the source told The Times of Israel, due to pressure from the Americans, who consider Hamas a terror organization.
“This is strange, since funds from Qatar have never been blocked in the past,” the source said, referring to the $400 million aid package pledged by Qatari ruler Sheikh Hamad bin Khalifa during his visit to Gaza in October 2012.
Hamas’s deputy political bureau chief Moussa Abu Marzouk lambasted Arab Bank for neglecting to process the funds in comments posted on his Facebook page June 28.
Just because the media doesn't discuss an event doesn't mean the event didn't occur.
Do you own research, the internet has tons of information on John Brennan running black ops out of the WH. That is at the heart of what happened in Benghazi.
That is what got Sharyl Attkisson fired from CBS...the media didn't want to cover this stuff.
I’ve done it ... it’s NOT THERE in regards to the USA (or Obama/Brennan) giving money or arms to Hamas in Gaza. In fact the USA has STOPPED money from getting to Hamas in Gaza, as was posted here on Free Republic a few days ago.
