Lets not forget how this all started...

Two Kassam rockets that were fired at the Eshkol region landed in open areas and did not cause wounded or damage. A rocket fired at a Sha'ar Hanegev kibbutz crashed into the communal dining room and caused damage but no casualties.

Meanwhile, emergency forces were searching for the impact sites of some four Kassam rockets that were fired at the area south of Ashkelon. There were no reports of casualties or damage in those attacks.

We could have avoided this and many other causalities as well as suffering had the State of Israel allowed already Years ago the UN peacekeeping Forces to take over and if both parties would have been looked into a sauna and not allowed out until they put their differences aside... Well, maybe the Sauna would not be accepted yet very effective.

Good story.

Both sides need to look to the future and come to a deal to live in peace.

I agree 158. Maybe the destruction of terror organizations will allow the citizens of Gaza to be free and not afraid of the Iran-Hamas brutality.

Israel will have to prepare for attacks on Rahat, Dimona and even Eliat and if the rockets go in the north they will attck Yavne Rishon Lezion and even Tel Aviv you deserve it.

Qassams were first fired at Israeli civil areas in October 2001. The first Qassam to hit Israeli territory was launched on February 10, 2002. The first time an Israeli city was hit was on March 5, 2002, when two rockets struck Sderot. Some rockets have hit as far as the edge of Ashkelon. The total number of Qassam rockets launched exceeded 1,000 by June 9, 2006. During the year 2006 alone, more than 1,000 rockets were launched. In 2008, 1750 rockets were launched[1]. By the end of December, 2008 a total of 15 people had been killed by Qassam rockets since attacks began in 2001[2] (see: List of Qassam rocket attacks).

Neverending stress. No damage? See what the little 'home-made' rockets can do, and what if someone had been in there?

Please..why not stop the violence? What does it prove? more dead?, more blood? What possibly is so much at stake to have war for centuries? I just don't get it.
