Then I guess people who believe there should be AN Israel had better make sure they are all dead

Hamas calls for revenge 'everywhere' as Israel hits Gaza again

Palestinian Islamists vowed revenge on Israel on Friday for killing a senior Hamas leader and his family, and said all options including suicide bombs were now open to "strike at Zionist interests everywhere."

You mean like the Jewish Community Center in Seattle?

There was no sign of a ceasefire on the seventh day of the conflict, in which at least 424 Palestinians have been killed and 2,000 wounded. Four Israelis have been killed by Palestinian rockets.

Israel pressed on relentlessly with more than 30 air strikes, one of which killed three Palestinian children aged between eight and 12 as they played on a street near the town of Khan Yunis in the south of the Strip. One was decapitated.

"These injuries are not survivable injuries," said Madth Gilbert, a Norwegian doctor at Gaza's Shifa hospital who could not save another boy who had both feet blown off. "This is a murder. This is a child," he said.

What do people imagine happened in Lyon, France when the allies bombed it in 1943-44 to destroy the Germans? Another war of survival. Just as that regime had to be destroyed as the best and fastest way to end the regime which NECESSITATED war. And by the way, losing feet was survivable in 1861, without antibiotics, anti shock medicine or even antiseptic pracices of any kind, so what kind of doctors are making such statements?

Perhaps HAMAS should have considered what the ultimate end was going to be with regards to that boy. Or perhaps they did, and that interview was the intended result. One more martyr, and one more stupid statement damaging to the existence of Israel..

They left behind 1.5 million Palestinians unable to escape the conflict, a city facing another day of bombs, missiles, flickering electricity, queues for bread, taped-up windows and streets littered with broken glass and debris.

By electing HAMAS they chose this conflict.

"We will not rest until we destroy the Zionist entity," said Hamas leader Fathi Hammad at the funeral of Nizar Rayyan, who was killed along with four wives and 11 children by an Israeli missile which hit his house on Thursday.

And that is the best description for why we are where we are.

It's the islamist rejectionists or Israel which must die.

That is the demand of the elected government in Gaza, and they cannot relent or they are no longer HAMAS.

Israel's manifest failure to reinforce this message is unbelievable.
