As I sit here in the quiet land of America, no gunfire, no bombs, just peace and quiet, I wonder what my neighbor would do if I began throwing rocks through his windows. Even if my rock throwing had little effect on his safety, would I stop my distructive action if my neighbor were to bombard my house with cannon fire, destroying it and killing my loved ones, especially if he simply told me, "Stop throwing rocks and I will stop firing my cannon!"? Now what do you think any reasonably smart person would do? Stop throwing rocks, of course. So, what is so different about this situation than what is going on in the Gaza strip. I don't get it, as it sit here under peaceful star-lit skies.

I would like to say that Spain wouldn't attack France because they don't want to create a war all because they want a land like Israel did. Palestine is defending itself and trying to point out to the world that Israel has basically noced its land. If Spain did that to France or France did that Spain do you think that they would sit there throwing rockets that rarely kill anyone or would they make a difference by sending actual bombs? Have you ever thought of it from Palestion's point of view? Would Israel sit there and throw small bombs or would they make a fuss? Have you ever thought of it that way? As well as the fact that there is a HUGE comparism with the weapons between is Isreal and Palestine. Just take some time to think of it that way.....

Shall i tell you why?
Because if you havn't noticed until monday the 5th of january Israel were not letting and aids go into GAZA so stop making it up because i can assure you that Israel WERE NOT letting aids in untill Monday and ONLY for 3 HOURS and they were ceartinally not encouraging them and that links into what i am going to say next......
A lot of pro-israel have been saying that Israel have been targeting only hamas buildings in which that hamas have been storing explosives in:therefore the buildings have been exploding dangerously. UMMMMM......i am afraid to break it to you the truth is that explosive bombs that Israel are using are EXTREMELY dangerous bombs.
To conclude france 24 have been saying all this because it si true NOTHING should give the right for Israel to bomb innicent people.
P.S i could write a looooooooot more but i do not want to waste my time trying to show the blind people the obvious (no offense not that i meant it to be offrnsive it is just that i get very defiant)

First of all i would like to say that Israel is the terriosts not Palestine because they invaded their land and starting calling it Israel. Also i would like to say that back when Palestine used to be under the British administration, when lots of jews were immigrating in and had settled in, they started to form terriost groups trying to over throw the british so that they can take over this land and make it become Israel that it is now. If you have noticed the British have simply 'forgotten' this. Now another thing is that most pro-palestine have looked at it from both sides of the arguament you could say. Other than pro-israel who have NOT done that.

This is an abominable shame to the So call Civilized Nations . Hypocrisy prevails , But this is no longer going to work as it had been for ages . The so call Pop is on a nose dive on this Issues . Israel are you not ashamed of yourselves as a people who had suffered in the Hands of the Nazis ( it on the Rise in Europe remember) killing people unnecessarily . You are the head ache don't you recognised that ,You must come to the negotiating Table with Hamas and talk with them you will see that they are human , they are no aliens . The facts are such they have a democratic system within the Palestinian society Two parties Hamas and fata . Why would you distroy this young democracy ? I sometimes wonder what are the Values of the so called Civilized world if they are destroying a democracy instead of directing it in the right path. I would rather been born an Allien not to see such a mess in the Human race .Racing to no where only to self distruction .

Israel is not fighting with the palestinian nation - it is all about hamas&co, making the life of the whole region grave. Instead of developing Gaza after israeli withdrawal and building civic infrastructure and creating jobs, hamas elected to make war from behind of the civilians, causing numerous casualties on both sides and turning the entire gaza into their hostages. For how long, arabs, expect Israel to sit doing nothing to protect its citizens? Also don't forget all those notifications made by the israelis to palestinians by telephone in order to avoid victims, while palestinians are striking at the hospitals, kinder-gardens, schools, etc. Hamas should be totally removed and there will be a chance for piece. make love, not war!

I don't suppose many of you in Gaza know that most of California was once land owned by Mexico. The US won a war that set up a National Boundry between California and Mexico. Now, I can assure you, if the Mexicans were sending rockets into our cities for over 6 years, we would retaliate without fail. As a matter of fact, if it occurred only for a couple of days, we would blow them off of the map, if they kept it up. What don't you people understand about this kind of thinking? If you lived over here in freedom, you wouldn't feel like you do. The only way this invasion is going to be stopped is if the rockets from Gaza stop for good. It hasn't happened yet, but if Hamas is willing to sacrifice all of their women and children, it will go on for some time. Someone in Gaza has to have the guts to put a stop to the rockets, come on terrorists, enough already.

Why hasn't the news covered all the bombings on Israel from Gaza?343

Israel's attack on the largest open prison in the world is a huge strategic mistake. It will only enrage Muslims throughout the world, turn ordinary people in the West against Israel, & destabilise puppet regimes in Egypt & Saudi Arabia which are maintained by the West. If radical Mullahs only convince 1 in every 1000 Muslims to become suicide bombers, then we are facing 1.3 million explosions. NOT a price worth paying to support a thuggish regime anywhere in the world.

I just caught a report on your French language channel in which you explain the current situation in Gaza. I want to say that your report was shamefully biased. Nowhere do you explain that after the withdrawal of the settlers Israel turned the Gaza into an economically-strangulated prison, controlling the strip’s borders, airspace, coastline, energy, taxes, etc. You also do not mention anything of the ongoing occupation forcing Palestinians to live in hopelessness or destitution. You do not mention either that rocket attacks were a response to the Israeli siege of the strip. 80% of those living in Gaza are from or are the descendants of people from what is now Southern Israel. They are refugees denied the right to return to their homes. Your complete lack of a historical context to the conditions prevailing in Gaza and the consequent election of Hamas is shameful and unprofessional.

Hellow! Here is me - an israelian "terrorist". Live in Ashkelon. Already used to run to a bomb shelter with a baby on my hands when a siren "singing" (very fearful, you know...). It happening in our area... 8 years! Yes, 8 years, may be all you, defenders of poor palestinians, you, that didn't heard in your live a siren, want to think about it a little? May be you want to come and visit us? You are very welcome! Very, very welcome!
And everybody who tell about the palestinians rights to this piece of land - may be, it be useful instead of seeing all the time pro-palestinian TV, to take a book of history to hands and read a little? It can be very useful sometimes, you know.

It is Israel's right to defend its citizens against terrorists like HAMAS. Rocket attacks must be stopped

We are at war against a terrorist organization - the Hamas.
Hamas does not care whether women, children, the sick or elderly will die. It does not care for it's own people!
They are firing missiles from their streets, from their homes, they have turned their schools and mosques into
factories manufacturing missiles and bombs! People in the south of Israel have been suffering for more than 8 years
from being fired at around the clock with no justified reason! children cannot sleep at night, people are in
prolonged anxiety. No goverment in the world would suffer for so long and not retaliate. But when Israel
does this to protect our right to exist, the entire world is against us! Did anyone tell Bush to stop war against Al Qaueda?
Did they tell him to stop the war in Iraq? Or Putin to stop the war in Chechnia and Georgia? Every country in the
world saves its right to defend its citizens, but when it comes to Israel that has been targeted for the past 8 years
by Hamas missiles, whos civillians are killed in terroris attacks by barbarians that allow themselves to destroy us
just because we are Jewish! we never get the right to live in peace! It is time that everyone understand, we are
here to stay!!Let us live in peace!

SHAME ON THE UN, ON THE USA, ON ISRAEL. Israel are the BIGGEST terrorist organisation who is helped and fully supported by the United States. The WHOLE world is against them and against this GENOCIDE, and again, they did not listen and went with their battle, turning their backs to the world. Until when will this go on???? They took over Palestine, they are occupying it since 1948, they took the Palestinians lands, houses, fields and they are wondering why they are hated? Why the Palestinians became terrorists??? They looked and searched for this war and once again, they will come out of it DEFEATED, same as the war they had with Lebanon in 2006. Bush is a murderer and everyone who is supporting him is too! This blood shed should stop immediately...this is absolutely unacceptable!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!!!! Enough killing civilians, children, women and men! Enough blood, enough wars, we had enough!!!
