Israel Pounds Gaza Hard: ‘Whoever Tries to Murder Children Will Pay With Their Life’

GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip (AP) — Israeli aircraft and tanks pounded Gaza on Friday, killing seven Hamas militants and five civilians in a surge of fighting sparked by a Palestinian rocket attack on an Israeli school bus the day before.

Israel Pounds Gaza Hard: Whoever Tries to Murder Children Will Pay With Their Life

Israel and Gaza’s Hamas rulers seemed on the brink of another round of intense violence, just a little over two years after a three-week war in which persistent rocket fire from Gaza triggered a devastating Israeli military offensive in the territory.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said the attack on the school bus “crossed a line” and warned that “whoever tries to harm and murder children will pay with their life.”

In Thursday’s attack, Gaza militants hit a yellow Israeli school bus near the border with a guided anti-tank missile, injuring the driver and badly wounding a 16-year-old boy. Most of the schoolchildren on the bus had gotten off shortly before the attack. Hamas, which had largely held its fire since Israel’s last major offensive, claimed responsibility.

Early Saturday, an Israeli airstrike against a vehicle traveling near Rafah in the southern Gaza Strip killed three Hamas militants, including a senior commander, the group said.

Hamas said 29-year-old Tayser Abu Snima and two of his assistants were killed in the blast. Israel confirmed he strike.

The early morning attack brought the two-day death toll from Israel’s ongoing retaliation to 17 Gazans – 10 militants, a Hamas policeman and six civilians – amounting to the bloodiest tally since Israel and Hamas wrapped up their three-week-long war more than two years ago.

The dead Friday included three civilians killed by Israeli tank fire and three militants killed in an airstrike, both near the southern Gaza town of Khan Younis. Another militant was killed in an airstrike in northern Gaza.

Later, an Israeli tank shell struck a cemetery east of Gaza City, killing two civilians, including an 11-year-old boy, said Palestinian health official Adham Abu Salmiya. The military insisted the strike targeted militants and that it had no information about any civilian casualties.

Gaza militants fired some 30 and mortar shells at southern Israel on Friday, causing no injuries, the Israeli military said.

For the second day in a row, Israel’s cutting-edge Iron Dome missile defense system successfully intercepted Palestinian rockets aimed at Israeli cities, the military said. The system knocked down rockets aimed at the Israeli cities of Ashkelon and Beersheba. Reinforced rooms and early warning systems also have helped keep Israeli casualties low.

Studies at some Israeli schools near Gaza were canceled Friday because of concerns for the students’ safety.

It is unclear if Hamas was trying to provoke a new conflagration, if it was not fully in control of all of its fighters, or if it believes Israel would pull back before invading Gaza again. Israel was condemned internationally after the last incursion.

Hamas said the rocket attack was in retaliation for the killing of three fighters in an airstrike earlier in the week. At around midnight Thursday, with Gaza rocked by explosions, the organization announced a cease-fire, though it later claimed responsibility for some of Friday’s strikes. A small PLO faction, the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, and the radical Islamic Jihad group also said they fired at Israel.

The Israeli strikes continued, hitting Hamas facilities and smuggling tunnels, after Hamas announced its cease-fire. Electricity lines and transformers were damaged, causing blackouts in some parts of the territory, according to Jamal Dardsawi, a spokesman for Gaza’s Electric Distribution Company.

U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon on Friday condemned the bus attack and expressed concern over civilian casualties in Israel’s strikes. He called for “de-escalation and calm to prevent any further bloodshed.”

Thousands of rockets from Gaza have hit Israeli towns and cities since 2001. Israel‘s attempts to stop the rockets have included military incursions and covert operations abroad aimed at disrupting Hamas’ efforts to procure arms.

In February, a Palestinian engineer was seized from a sleeper train in Ukraine and showed up several days later in Israel, where he has been charged with masterminding Hamas’ rocket program. Last year a Hamas operative was assassinated in Dubai, and Israeli agents are widely assumed to have been responsible. Israel identified the man as a Hamas agent responsible for obtaining weaponry from Iran.

This week, Sudan accused Israel of being behind an explosion that killed two in Port Sudan. The blast was thought to be linked to arms smuggling to Gaza. Israel would not comment.

Israel should take back everything they’ve had finaggled from them, & flatten the hiddeous mosque on the temple mount and start rebuilding now. Thats what ******* do when they win a piece of land, build mosques on it.

    Anyone who is in question about who should own the land needs to read the bible. God gave Israel this land, and this fight has been going on for centuries. Israel has the right to defend itself, and according to the Bible, when the nations of the world all turn on Israel then God will show fourth His power. I think that Israel should bomb them non stop, and really show the world the kind of power that they have. If I was the Leader of Israel, I would have nuked them all by now. Israel is extremely tolerant, and I believe that they are about to show us what they are really made of.

      I don’t know how much trouble there would be if ever the United States or should I say the present regime decided to have military actions against Israel but I am sure there would be allot. I am glad that I never had to face such a dilemma during my 20 years in the U.S. Army but I hope that if I had I would have the courage to refuse to go. I took an oath that I would defend the Constitution of the United States and follow lawful orders but unless Israel did something extremely horrendous I would not believe that any order to attack Israel would be lawful.
      I have been retired from the military for a long time now but even thinking about this now has me terribly conflicted, my oath vs orders to attack Israel. This is something that I am very glad I didn’t have to experience while on active duty and I sincerely hope that no U.S. service member ever has to make that decision.
      If we as involved citizens do our jobs right politically that is something that no U.S. military personnel will have to consider. Any U.S. politician who appears to be opposed to Israel is one who I will try my best to see is voted out of office. It may not be much, it may be just donating a small amount of money to their opposition, or it may be just talking to other people to keep them informed about the politician’s viewpoint. If we all do our part hopefully it will keep it from happening.

Totally convinced that killing an entire race is the cure all for their inability self govern. Worst of all we as Americans have allowed it to start all over again with the elections of Barack Obama,George W. Bush and Bill Clinton. Arguably the three worst foreign policy presidents ever to sit in the oval office. Americans (all of US) should be ashamed to have allowed these people to take control. Like post WWII we will hang our heads low when the Israeli people once again must shed their blood for worlds sins.

    Then when the Israelis retaliate, half the world__which now includes dumbass Obama supporters, line up to blame Israel, while praising the terrorist scumbags of Hamas. Obama himself treats Israel like dirt.

    Israel is the only honorable nation in the Middle East, and Israeli leaders have cool, level heads. They are in the right and they know it.

    Israel is also the only Middle East nation to fly their own flag at half-mast in honor of the victims of September 11, 2001.

      I’d rather go live there, even with the bombs. At least their leadership has B-lls! And they are not trying to destroy themselves.

      I‘m glad they’re giving Hamas some kick back. Israeli medics treat their arab muslim rioters as well as they treat their own. They are humanitarian and love life. Unlike those who want their demise, who worship death and bloodshed.

      I think who needs to be thrown in prison are the co-conspirators of Hamas. I believe there are many countries and individuals who give Hamas money to wage war on Israel. People in the United Nations and in America and all over the world. They are full of evil. You think these people would have a guilty conscience.

      This story will surely bring out all the Jew haters that lurk around just waiting to pounce on any story that has the word “Jew” in it. You know, the lovers of brutality, torture, and death. Whenever you come out and publicly announce that you are a progressive, you automatically get your secret de-coding ring that lets you communicate with all of your hateful buddies, and notifies you with updates on Jewish stories. The next time a progressive says anything about caring about humanity, its now our duty as Tea Partiers to call them liars to their faces.

      I think we should all tell U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon to go to hell. If they are going to make inflammatory remarks against Israel in one hand, say nothing when Hamas starts the aggression but immediately puts out a statement to calm down when Israel retaliates, seems to me, a little disingenuous. The U.N. has lost all credibility as a neutral party in these matters. I for one stand with Israel.

      Israel has every right to defend and take back ALL of their land. They have been pounded enough, but God told them these things would happen. He told them to repent and return to Him as well. What we see happening in Israel is being ushered in here as well. The middle east, or anyone else, does not have nearly the oil or any where close to the natural resources that we have here.
      Taking us over and getting that would just be a bonus and real reason would be for supporting Israel and Christianity.

Leave them alone and they will do the same, it’s so simple, yet so complicated. Iran is the culprit(imagine that!)in all of this turmoil, they are using Cass Sundstein tactics with a nudge here, a nudge there, you get the idea. I believe things will deteriorate rapidly if they(liberal loons headed by Bill Ayers)try doing another “Freedom Flotilla” to Gaza, I think that would amount to a PUSH!

      ROCKET ATTACKS ON ISRAEL
      Rockets are again being fired into Israeli cities, killing and maiming innocent citizens. These attacks have continued for years with brief unofficial armistice occurring whenever it was to the advantage of the aggressor. Israel’s retaliation for these attacks are demonized by the press as evil attacks against innocent civilians but there is no outrage about the rockets being fired randomly into the Israeli cites, maiming and killing innocent citizens. Despite years of “Peace Talks” and concessions by the Israelis, the rocket attacks continue whenever it is to the advantage of the aggressor. Any retaliation by Israel is always demonized by the press.

      The most important fact about this Mid-East conflict is that the initiation of the violence is always against Israel. If the aggressors ceased the attacks there would be no retaliation and there would finally be Peace in the Mid-East. What a tragedy for the tyrants!

      The reason for the rocket attacks?
      1. The tyrant requires an enemy to retain power
      2. Israel has produced considerable wealth and that wealth is available for the Tyrants to plunder.
      3. Compare the tyrants to the Somalia Pirates; the only different is the scale of the attacks and the positive press the tyrants enjoy.
