The Hamas government headquarters, which housed Gaza "prime minister" Ismail Haniyeh's offices, were leveled to the ground. In addition, "security compounds, tunnels and electricity transformers" were hit, according to Al Jazeera. "Missiles also knocked out five electricity transformers, plunging more than 400,000 people into darkness, according to the Gaza electricity distribution company," the news network reported.

The government has approved the call-up of 75,000 reservists and massed troops, tanks and armored vehicles along the border with Gaza, signaling a ground invasion could be imminent.

The IDF's attacks from air and sea have been very accurate, and attempts to minimize civilian deaths have also been relatively successful, although with Hamas, one never knows when a family may be purposely placed in harm's way to create a bloodbath that can be blamed on Israel....

Don’t repair the grid after the war - electricity is a Jewish conspiracy to humiliate the noble Arab peoples.

Why would Israel "target" the Gaza power grid? I thought that Israel supplied them with electricity. They should just need to shut off the power and water.

There are only two entities to blame for anything that happens in this world, it's either George Bush's fault or Israel's fault.

Why send in troops and give the snipers targets. Just keep bombing.

Build up in the North
Swing around to both flanks
By land from the East
By sea from the West
Join hands in the South
To cut off supplies
And you’re winning the six-hour war
Voila!

I guess the U.S. elected a dictator? Can’t any of these losers in congress support Israel or is it only the President who matters these days.

Congress has as much Israeli blood on their hands as Obama if they never make an effort to step in. I know it’s supposed to be the President but I can’t believe the geniuses who wrote the Constitution didn’t allow for a would-be tyrant to win an election.
