  1. Every few minutes sirens in different areas…How long do the innocent civilians have to tolerate this terror and disturbance (to put it mildly–literally pikuach nefesh)?? The civilians are surely sick and tired in living in such condition. therefore , time to rid Gaza of Hamas and all their infrastructure and weapons……. Anhy other course will lead to a rerun to this scenario!!!!!!

  2. It’s such a sick situation!
    When I’m feeling sickly a fleet enema works wonders!
    Perhaps the IDF ought try that! It clears out the whole system!!

  3. Nebach on our brothers in Eretz Yisroel – living like this is horrific – think about taking all your children, a disabled family member, elderly people, at all hours of the night, and running for cover-somehow we don’t hear any complaints about this, only about the poor poor Palestinians- Wasn’t there a ‘foul smelling’ development where they could make the area totally unoccupiable cause humans couldn’t tolerate the smell? Maybe that is the way to deal with the human shield.

  4. Netanyahu is loath to return fire any stronger lest the world will storm. Chiloni galus mentality out to please the world who hate them anyhow no matter what they do.

  5. Its a phone call away let these so called leaders call HASHEM instead of calling other world so called leaders

  6. I am right now in NYC talking with my son riding a bus in B’nei B’raq & he saw these latest rockets over B’nei B’raq being intercepted & a huge flash in the sky.

  7. “23:16: The operation will involve ground forces entering urban areas of northern Israel as they advance to locate ”
    I think i mean” Gaza” not “israel”

  8. 23:43: It is reported that US Secretary of State John Kerry has spoken with Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu as a result of the launching of the ground operation.
    Boy, do I have something to say about that piece of garbage but I’m not allowed to use profane language.
    I can say that it’s time for Kerry and Obummer to come here and fight for Jewish rights. I would be happy and proud to buy them their water guns.
