Subject: RE: BS: Israel Moves in.
ifor,

IMHO NO-ONE likes the present carnage in Gaza, but some of us have decided that it is preferable to the constant rocket attacks upon innocent Israeli civilians ( that neither you nor the UN, nor any of those nations protesting Israel's actions ever even commented upon) for years upon end.

Israel has stated this will end when Hamas stops firing rockets, and the world prevents Hamas from rearming.

Since the UN promised ( 2006 Lebanon ceasefire terms) that Hezboallah would NOT be rearmed, and it was ( since it seems UN Ceasefires only apply to Israeli actions, not others) there has to be a serious commitment to stopping Hamas from rearming.


Yet Hamas is still firing rockets at innocent civilians- and the UN is telling them to stop.

Egypt is telling them to stop.

Jordan is telling them to stop.

Iran and Syria ( the nations that violated the 2006 UN ceasefire to rearm Hezboallah) are the only ones NOT telling them to stop.
