The Palestinians should be given Arms equal to Israel and let them Duke it out. The one that wins take control of the Area. End of ME problems.

Isreal is the source of all the problems in the world!!!! Send the jews back to Europe or where ever they came from. Let the Palestinians have their land back.

Blame the British for this problem too.

Israel poised to annex Gaza; vows not to leave any Gazan alive...

I strongly support Israel and it's right to exist. The Palestinian issue needs to be resolved so that there can be stability in the region. Ask your congressman or congresswoman and they will give a range of answers.

This issue will end only when the United States want it to end. Does the U.S really care ? That is the million dollar question.

Right now, the US has bigger issues to deal with and this matter is of little importance to the U.S. The Palestinians should stop firing missiles at Israel. They should learn their lesson by now.

Let us look back at history and ask ourselves, who really started the war against Israel ? Israel kicked them back and secured a safety zone to protect themselves. We cannot blame Israel for defending themselves.

That said and done, it is also about time that the US take a leadership role in helping the people of Palestine.

Yes, Israel has the right to exist on Palestinian land, which according to the Bible God took from the Philistine to give it to the Israelites. Amen.

Can you get a letter from God verifying this information? The bible is not the word of god. The bible was written by religious fanatics and reinterpited; not by god.

Hamas is now capable of firing rockets in every major city in Israel. This is not good news for Israel. With better guiding systems these rockets will do greater damage.

I wouldn't call it rockets. They are just fire works. It can only kill you if you run away from it to get run over by a car.

Gaza is now a forward base of Iran.  Iran will rein supreme over the wahabs.  The US and Israel will have to come to terms with the Iranians, there is little to stop them unless they take rash steps.

I hope a truce is reached soon, innocent children are getting caught in the fire.

The only rash step American can take is to start another war.

Iraq and Afghanistan already have hundred of thousANds of American soldiers who are mad and imbalance from those two wars that Bush started.  I HOPE AND PRAY THAT ONE OF THOSE VETS  WHO LOST THIER MIND IN IRAQ DO NOT START SHOOTING NEXT TO ANY OF YOUR FAMILY MEMBER.

THE real rash step that America need to take is stop arming Israel and come to grips that Arabs and Palestinians are human beings as well.

Iran is not stupid like the Wahabs, they know their limits and dangers.  Don't count on it, Israel will be armed by the US, so back to the drawing board.  The only thing Israel has to come to grips with is a rival power, Iran.

There are some commentators who are suggesting that Israel is systematically eliminating its opponents in its immediate vicinity, so as not to have to worry about them once it launches its main attack on Iran. This is like the run-up to WW I. Netanyahu is a psycho, and the British are gloating over the success of their machinations.

And these would be?????

Egypt - last I check it was not engaged in a potential war.

Syria - they have an internal war

Jordan? The West Bank? Saudi Arabia? Kuwait? Iraq? 

Who are these "opponents in the vicinity" that Israel is eliminating? Israel is pounding Gaza with missiles in retaliation for attacks on its citizens and they are ready for a ground invasion of this strip of land it has always had in a ghetto-like state.

so who are these opponents being eliminated in preparation for an Iran war?

Come in Bhagdad Bob.......where are you? Your crown is being threatened by, dare I say, a clown.......

Y'all gotta stop these senseless statements. We all dislike what's happening to the Palestinians. And we are all supportive of Persian people who want to live life like everyone else. But to think that Israel wants to have a Hitlerian "final solution" is a stretch.....come on we're more sensible than that.

They are not innocent, they are Palestinians

Israel does not have to launch a ground invasion into Gaza to deal with Hamas. A ground invasion would certainly result in casaulties for the Israelis - something they want to avoid at all costs.

How are they going to expand Israel without annexation and ethnic cleansing?

The final goal is the creation of Great Israel according to biblical borders.
