Strange times we live in. The original inhabitants are the terrorists and the Israeli invaders killing the women and children in cold blood aided by the peace loving international community deserve the peace prize.

If no shelling or rockets are hurled from Palestine side then Israel will not have an option to attack so maintain peace on Palestinian side and Israel will not be able to attack.

Why are they still staying in Palestine why cant they move to neighboring countries or safe places like IDP's in Pakistan and once Hamas or Israelis are eliminated they can come back.
Why don't Muslim countries arrange for Palestinians to move out and provide places for refuge.

@janu
what an utterly stupid argument. Dont forget the Israelis are invaders who have imprisoned the people of Gaza in an open air prison, killing and humiliating them on a daily basis. Don't these hapless people of gaza have even the right to retaliat??? Wakeup!!! and open your eyes

@janu easy for u to say.
what a joke. israelis r the illegal occupiers and palestinians r the rightful owners of this land
if jews got badly treated by europeans, and europeans feel bad about it, they must accommodate jews in europe; or more specifically, in germany

It is an important saying "the world is not lead to darkness because of bad people but it is because of the silence of good people"
the situation in Gaza is becoming worse day by day, as Israiles started ground assault with heavy artery and jets. The silence
of Islamic world is amazing except Turkey. The role is played by OIC is just like "O I See"

@atif It is the law of nature , powerful occupy land and kill weak ,so the first thing the oppressed can do is to save their soul , if you are weak and attack the strong what is the outcome , more losses to the weak , so they should bide their time until they are strong enough doing anything else is foolish .

@Nooruddin Look what people who are intelligent are doing, allowing Hamas to launch rockets on Israel and in retaliation innocent Palestinians are killed , if Hamas really wants to fight Israel then first vacate all Palestinians from war zone then do the fight , keeping innocent civilians is foolish.

@Mansur Everybody knows Israel was created illegally but that is not the point here , point is loss of lives , how can we save lives , if they cant fight and win then best option is to move to safer places and bide their time until the opportune time.

@Mansur Yes even an animal will retaliate when attacked but what differentiates humans is ability to think , if you retaliate and face more losses then it is not such a good idea , first move away from battle zone save your children , attend to daily needs food,shelter,health and then think of anything else.

Hamas is bad because its extremist but so is Likud they are zionist party and they are occupying Palestinian land.
If Hamas wins election they are declared terrorist Netanyahoo and Likud party should be declared terrorist.

Israel and Washington cannot get it through their thick skulls, Palestinians will never give up an inch of their land. Israel and Washington need to look in the mirror, the fault is theirs trying to take land belonging to the Palestinians.

@janu This is totally wrong. Israel attacks Palestine with or without rocket launches, with or without Hamas, with or without intelligence. This is scare tactics. Every two years, Israel needs to show Palestine who is the boss. I only wish Palestinians get 5% of the weapons Israel has and then we would call it a war, right now, it is plain old Holocaust times 100 being imposed by the Israelis.

@basha Have you looked at that place on the map? West Bank is all filled with settlements now. Palestinians cannot even go free in West Bank without tons of checkposts and their houses being demolished. In Gaza, it is totally under blockade and refer to old maps, today's Gaza is less than 20% of the land before '67. I don't know about you but if someone comes and takes over my house, I won't sit silent, I will FIGHT!

@janu Live in a prison for 60 years and we will see what you have to say. Israelis dont want peace they just want to exterminate the Palestinians. You should also look at the entire conflict rather than having a memory span of 2 weeks to know what is actually going on. All those supporting Israel have blood on their hands.

Reality is ISIS has strong hold in Syria.Khalifa Baghdadi & his men are in full control of Mosul & enjoy wide support in Iraq. Hamas defeated & frustrated started this . Palestinians masses who had relatively peaceful 2 years are now in the middle of genocide by Israelis. Can Hamas protect them? NO...They are interested in point scoring. Egypt does not seem to care.
