Self-Defense

Israel is responding to Hamas-backed rocket attacks originating from Gaza, with the strongest barrage of bombs in a decade. While Israeli casualties have been limited to 1, and Palestinian casualties are at 225, it is important to remember that Hamas launches attacks from and hides behind civilians in heavily populated areas.

The United States, Israel's closest ally, blamed Hamas. "These people are nothing but thugs, so Israel is going to defend its people against terrorists like Hamas that indiscriminately kill their own people," White House spokesman Gordon Johndroe said.

I think that Israel has the right to defend its borders and its people with whatever means are necessary. I personally think Israel should carpet-bomb Gaza and the West Bank and rid the world of these terrorists once and for all. Remember that the Palestinians are the same people who danced in the streets when the 9/11 attacks occured. Those animals celebrated the death of innocent Americans.

It will be interesting to see how President Obama will respond to Hamas' continued aggression against peaceful, civilized Israel. I'm hoping for total Nuclear destruction of Radical Islamic groups and the countries that harbor them. We'll see...
