    This is sickening and utterly reprehensible. Until the US tells Israel that enough is enough and force them to recognise they are responsible for so much more than the Palestinians this will continue while the US turns a blind eye.

    Oh, the poor oppressed Palestinian civilians being forced to kill evil Israelis who are egged on by the even more evil American Empire...

    Come off it. Hamas refuses to renew a ceasefire and shells Israeli towns. Israel responds by killing (mostly) Hamas militants, and this according to Hamas.

    Link to something about this?
    According to Hamas itself, at least 140 of the dead are Hamas militants.

    BBC:

    Most of those killed were policemen in the Hamas militant movement, which controls Gaza, but women and children also died, the Gaza officials said.

    Various sources:

    Hamas police spokesman Ehad Ghussein said about 140 Hamas security forces were killed.

    Yahoo News:

    But earlier in the day, police said about 140 Hamas security forces were killed.

    Oh but it was all so different when it was the IRA wasn't it?

    America didn't take such a hard line then and I wonder why..

    The IRA had completely different goals, objectives, and reasoning behind their war in Ireland. Read-up.

    I ask because it's usually something like that which causes outbursts like this, needless to say I dissagree completely.

    Re unification of Northern Ireland with the republic of Ireland even though the majority of people in Northern Ireland remained unionists? Killing innocent civilians in attempts to get their point across?

    And imagine what would of happened if the British reacted like Israel is now. After bloody Sunday there were world wide protests and the Brits were labelled murderers. The same can be said for the death of Bobby Sands there were huge protests then as well and again the British were made to look like criminals.

    The only difference is the IRA were seen as good ol' Irish fighting the repressive British whilst instead Hamas are seen as Muslim extremists who want to cause the apocalypse.

    One man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter? In the case of the IRA who were perceived by the west as freedom fighters and Hamas who are seen in the eyes of the west as terrorists.

    i supported killing terrorists then too.

    america's tacit support kept their funding going much longer than it should have.
