1. Announce that Hamas apartment buildings will be destroyed. 2. Drop leaflets next to said buildings about the imminent destruction. 3. Destroy Hamas owned property. What can they do to prevent this? Israel needs to go with its strengths. Also, destroy Haniya's house. His mother's house. Zahar's house. etc. The only thing that Hamas respects is direct attacks on the leadership. They don't give a rat's behind about anything else.

Fully support IAF in the retaliation for the misile attack by Hamas. Hit them hard where it hurt most to Hamas. The international community can say whatever but the protection of Israel citizens and to peace to prevail, must kill the bad guys who will never accept peace because their religion and indoctrination to hate Israel, USA and the Christians, a happy ending is not achieve unless by killing these terrorists and fanatics. My full support to Israel whatever the international community may condemn or criticize. Israel must defend itself and use the necessary force to kill these plague.

Once again we have seen that there is no peace partner, yet Hussein Obama continues to presure Israel. Why doesn't he get it once and for all?

An air attack on Gaza resulting in extensive destruction and like it or not, many casualties, including innocent people, is necessary. This may not be politically correct or morally right, enough is enough. Throw the rule book "out the window" Who cares what the world thinks? Keep the blockade and cut electricity to Gaza, as well.

The Israeli strike was aimed solely at the tunnels and terrorist targets while the Grad missile fired into Israel was deliberatelyh meant to kill as many civialins as possible. If you think this is equivalent, you are one of the vilest criminals imaginable. What else do you call someone who backs terrorist attacks and genocide (as clearly called for in Hamas's charter). My question is do you back attacks on America's civilians as well. Well, do you?

The USA, especially with the current administration, will do absolutely nothing. Perhaps just kowtow to the Mexican president. Keep watching the US news, we may turn into a nation of vigilantes in our disgust for our Federal government.

Is why did the IDF wait so long? Considering that Ashkelon is NOT a military target, then anywhere in Gaza deserves the same definition, and there can be no such thing as 'collateral' damage. That new shopping mall is just a 'front' for a missile base, isn't it? So sorry if I was wrong, I'll try to be more careful the next time.

Imagine if people in Mexico started launching missile attacks into the US and then played out the victim card in front of the media EVERY time they responded. Tell me the US would put up with 1% of the rocket fire Israel does. The US would DECIMATE them on the third attack. And no one would feel sympathy for the attackers. So why does Israel have to be ashamed of defending itself?

Thousands of people in Aza see preparations for rocket launches into Israel. They don't do anything about it because Israeli response is a little price to pay compared to the price of stopping the launch. Israel should shift this cost/benefit balance. Hit where it hurts in every day life: disable access and utilities supply to the malls, beaches, restaurants, major thruways.

round and round we go. when will it ever end? Americans feel for the two political factions in the area, but why should we have to choose? I don't feel inclined to support either side, yet my government has explicitly sanctioned the existence of the current Israeli state. most Americans would not care for this stance if they read a history book or took a look at some campaign/lobbying disclosures, nor would they care for the explicit sanctioning of the Islamic oil-regimes next door. the average, ignorant American is isolationist, just like in 1906 and 1930. violence won't solve anything, and since this was started with political back-room dealing, that is how it will end.
