And so to war! Again! In case anyone has been asleep, Israel has 'invaded' Gaza, and proceeded to 'massacre' lots of people, amounting to some as a 'genocide'. Did you notice all those 'quotes'? That means that they are so-called... Israel has had enough of rockets being fired from Gaza into its lands, with no definite plan or target, other than to 'kill the Jews'. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hamas_Covenant This amounts to a scary read. If any government, anywhere, announces to the world that they have very little plans for their area, except kill the Jews, then I think a few people would be upset. Why, then, has Gaza had millions of tax dollars given to it? It amounts to me subsidising terrorism, and I strongly object to that! So, why has Gaza been invaded? http://www.theguardian.com/world/2014/aug/02/tunnels-hamas-israel-struggle-gaza-war It isn't hard to see that these tunnels are long and well thought out. They are not like Tom, Dick or Harry, these are expensive enterprises, taking years to build. And why have they been built, I hear you ask? To invade! To get an easy access into Israel, where they would plan to do the most damage that they could. The Israeli casualties would be in the thousands. Look at them - http://mashable.com/2014/08/04/the-tunnels-in-gaza/ As has been mentioned, the concrete used in the tunnels would have built schools, hospitals and more, benefitting the Gaza community, instead of which the population has gone short, because Hamas (and one must suppose) the PA are madly besotted with the notion of eliminating Israel. Why? What is it about this tiny country that makes it such a target for most of the Arab world? Even the United Nations (Useless Nations) seems to have been highjacked by an Arab-based set who will jump up and down with excitement over anything that Israel does, but will casually ignore all attrocities delivered elsewhere in the world. http://www.frontpagemag.com/2014/joseph-klein/the-un-continues-to-blame-israel-for-everything/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=the-un-continues-to-blame-israel-for-everything http://www.cija.ca/issues/un-reform/ http://www.algemeiner.com/2014/07/16/israels-un-ambassador-calls-for-immediate-suspension-of-unrwa-spokesman-chris-gunness/http://www.algemeiner.com/2014/07/16/israels-un-ambassador-calls-for-immediate-suspension-of-unrwa-spokesman-chris-gunness/ Such nice people: http://www.algemeiner.com/2014/08/06/hamas-shoots-fatah-member-in-legs-forces-him-to-be-human-shield/ http://www.algemeiner.com/2014/08/05/france-24-reporter-reveals-hamas-rocket-launcher-fired-near-civilians-united-nations-facility-and-reporters-video/ At the end of it all, we have seen that the Gaza 'news' is heavily doctored, and in a lot of cases faked. Screams of 'Israel did this' are simply lies, as we have later found out after all the mud slinging. The latest is for the media to get 'big names' on the wagon, calling for an end to the so-called genocide (it isn't genocide - you really need to check your dictionaries before you start to use log words that you clearly don't understand). Thankfully there are big names who will speak out about the crass utterings of some people: https://uk.yahoo.com/movies/jon-voight-slams-ignorant-javier-bardem-and-penelope-93760158541.html
