Hundreds of attacks by Israel, many casualties in Gaza, mostly civilians, no significant damage or casualties in Israel. Pretty SOP so far. Yes, Hamas does suck, but the toon is actually more accurate than Lisa intends, as Israel is not suffering any serious damage.
Let’s see what Netanyahu actually does to the folks who killed the kid as punishment, maybe no pork on sabbath?
No significant damage? What about the children in hospitals that have to be evacuated, because of an incoming rocket?
Also why is it Hamas send its rockets from civilian areas? Is it for the protection of its population? No – it is so when one life is lost because Hamas put them in the way, Hamas can scream that the Israelis are commiting war crimes!
Is Israel innocent, not completely, but they are no way as bad as the media portrays them to be.
Your as blind as you were those years ago when you were making outlandish, blind and thoughtless comments. Please do some real research and maybe even go visit Israel and you’ll see the truth. They are under constant attack and always have to defend themselves.
Good to see you have not changed and good to see your still here!
I guess if Hamas would stop initiating these things by firing rockets into Israel when ever they get the urge they wouldn’t trigger these shooting wars. What is Israel supposed to do, tolerate rocket fire? Shoot back aiming at empty fields?
The history of the IDF, and other organizations relative to the Zionist movement since the 1800’s is interesting. Deciding on who the “good guys” are, becomes very confusing when studying the real history, as I HAVE, and not just the AIPAC version we in the U.S. are supposed to accept. Sharon, Begin, and others, were rabid terrorist at times in their careers, though Dayan was indeed a great general and tactician, his capacity for brutality was part of what made him, “good” at it.
I have no sympathy for terrorists, be they Jew, Christian, OR Muslim, if you go in chronological order. It is also important to note that not all is relative only to religion, but also “tribe” , and ethnic and “racial” sentiments and hatreds.
Israel IS the new “Goliath”, but as Arab Palestinians know the secret of using the weapons available to “David”, so does Israel, and both sides are fully capable of using the sling, not just the sword. With Israel and the U.S., the big sword is used too often, in Afghanistan, Iraq, West Bank and Gaza, when even the sling is not as powerful as negotiation, and efforts at human communication, and true justice. (for the good, the bad, and the “ugly”.)

“I guess the holocaust was ok by the libs.”Wow, did you just claim that “libs” are perfectly fine with the murder of 12 million people? That’s low. Even for you, that is low.For the record, this “lib” is as opposed the attacks militant Palestinians carryout on Israeli civilians as the attacks the Israelis have carried out in Palestinian civilian areas. As I’ve said in the past, both sides have the blood of innocents on their hands and both sides are responsible for the continuation of violence.
I see… Since they’re Palestinian, they obviously must automatically praise the killing of any Israeli? That’s like saying that all Christians praise the murder of abortion doctors because a few radicals do.

It’s good to remember that Hamas was elected. Back when Democracy was on the march.

Isn’t it funny how an Israeli radical murdered his own prime minister in order to stop the progress of the peace process the PM was committed to?
