.
In a civilized country the murderers of the 3 Israeli teenagers would hunted down and brought to trail as would and has been done in the case of the Palestinian teenager that was murdered in retaliation. What was the trigger for the Hamas rockets?  Was it Israel attacking Gaza first?

According to the IDF, more than 30 rockets were fired in a major escalation earlier on Monday 7 July which struck major cities Ashdod and Ashkelon. Four rockets were intercepted by Israel’s Iron Dome  missile defense system and 16 landed in open areas near Beersheba. According to Israeli media reports, more that 70 projectiles were fired at Israel.

What is the cost to the Israeli taxpayer of this offensive? To date no Israeli has been killed, just the nuisance of air raids. Rockets have been fired from Lebanon and maybe next they will come from Syria. Who knows.
Is the Israeli offensive justified or necessary? In Europe I do not think this sort of thing would have happened.

במקרה של הנער הפלסטיני שנרצח כנקמה. מה היה הטריגר לרקטות של חמאס? היה זה ישראל לתקוף את עזה הראשונה?

לדברי צה"ל, יותר מ 30 רקטות נורו בהסלמה גדולה מוקדם יותר ביום שני, 7 ביולי שפגע בערים גדולות באשדוד ובאשקלון. ארבע רקטות יורטו על ידי מערכת ההגנה מפני טילים כיפת הברזל של ישראל ו16 נחתו בשטחים פתוחים ליד באר שבע. על פי דיווחים בתקשורת ישראליות, יותר כי 70 קליעים נורו לעבר ישראל.

מהי העלות למשלם המסים הישראליים של מתקפה זו? עד כה לא ישראלי כבר נהרג, רק המטרד של הפצצות אוויריות. רקטות נורו מלבנון ואולי הבא שהם יבואו מסוריה. מי יודע.

האם המתקפה הישראלית מוצדקת או הכרחי? באירופה אני לא חושב שדברים מסוג זה לא היה קורה.

الفلسطيني الذي اغتيل في الانتقام. ما كان على الزناد لصواريخ حماس؟ كان ذلك إسرائيل مهاجمة غزة أولا؟

وفقا للجيش الإسرائيلي، تم إطلاق أكثر من 30 صاروخا في تصعيد كبير في وقت سابق من يوم الاثنين 7 يوليو التي ضربت المدن الكبرى أشدود وعسقلان. تم اعتراض أربعة صواريخ من قبل نظام الدفاع الصاروخي الاسرائيلي القبة الحديدية و 16 سقطت في مناطق مفتوحة بالقرب من بئر السبع. وفقا لتقارير وسائل الاعلام الاسرائيلية، أطلقت أكثر من 70 قذيفة على اسرائيل.

ما هي التكلفة على دافعي الضرائب الإسرائيلية لهذا الهجوم؟ حتى الآن لا يوجد الإسرائيلي قد قتل، مجرد ازعاج من الغارات الجوية. وقد أطلقت صواريخ من لبنان، وربما القادمة التي سوف تأتي من سوريا. من يدري.

هو الهجوم الاسرائيلي مبررا أو ضروريا؟ في أوروبا وأنا لا أعتقد أن هذا النوع من الشيء قد حدث.

Synopsis

Claire Foy (Little Dorrit) and Christian Cooke (Cemetery Junction) lead an international cast, including Itay Tiran (Lebanon), Haaz Sleiman (The Visitor), Ali Sulaiman (Paradise Now) and Perdita Weeks (Lost in Austen), in Peter Kosminsky's new four-part drama serial.
.

Just as 18-year-old Londoner Erin (Foy) sets off to spend summer in Israel with her best friend, Eliza (Weeks), she unearths an old diary belonging to her seriously ill grandfather, Len (Cooke). Intrigued by the life of this old man she barely knows, she takes the diary with her, and is stunned to learn of his part in the post-WWII British peace-keeping force in what was then Palestine.

.

Left to her own devices when Eliza begins National Service in the Israeli army, Erin witnesses the complexities of life--for both Jews and Arabs--in this troubled land. And as Len's story comes to life from the pages of the diary, Erin discovers the disturbing truths about his time in Palestine and the atrocities he witnessed in the 1940s. 
.

Retracing Len's steps in modern-day Israel, Erin sets out on a heart-breaking journey in an effort to understand and fulfil a promise made by her grandfather over 60 years ago.

Ron Paul

Israel's critics and enemies will see the United States as the side to be blamed for the ongoing violence in the Gaza Strip, believes Congressman Ron Paul. He says the US should review its unconditional support of the Jewish state.

America get rid of your representative to the UN Security Council and employ an impartial peace loving person. As the President Elect said "IT IS TIME FOR CHANGE"

the other side - we try to be imparial in our attempt to improve the world

1. Why do Hamas militants send missiles into Israel? If we can provide a means to stop this grievance then we might be able to stop these missile attacks

2. What has been the cost of the Israeli military attack on Gaza? Could Israel, with their friendship and contact with the USA not have mounted a defense system along the Northern Gaza border which could knock out the militants missiles before they flew over Israeli territory. We are sure this would have been far most cost effective than the current military operations.

3. The cost of Palestinian life - we cannot put a price on this and the killing of Palestinian civilians in a UN school is unacceptable and like the Balkans war the culprits should be brought before the Criminal Court in the Hague.
