Gaza militants fire rockets at Beersheba, Israel

[Gerald]

A rocket fired from the Gaza Strip has hit a house in the southern Israeli city of Beersheba.

The strike on the city was the first since Israel's 2009 offensive in Gaza. No casualties were reported and the situation was said to be under control.

Israel responded by carrying out an air strike on eastern Gaza City which reportedly injured three militants.

If you have something to say on a subject, say it. Cutesy net-baby speak is for children.

I reply how I like, as everyone else does, weather its on topic or not. 'Cutsey net baby speak" as you don't have a clue what it is or means, when people older than you post on here using "cutsy-net baby speak".

And to reply to this thread would to say the hipocracy on this "rocket attacks on Israel"

Really? Who?

This is not like most of the forums you're used to. We consider it polite here to write in language that others can understand.

And to reply to this thread would to say the hipocracy, both from the "military spending", then "terrorism on Israel".

Then you should have said that in the first place. Now there's something to discuss.

Yea, why don't you go look around who uses ^^, or -.- or the smileys. Same crap.

Okay then lets discuss. Without disputing over who's land is who's, Palestine has suffered far more causulties than Israelis.

And don't tell me this "biased" which makes it illegitmate. Any source is biased in some way. And this is 10 years old so the count is probably MUCH higher as their imperialist campaign intensifies

^^ refers to the post above, and is obvious, as are the smileys. -.- is not obvious, and cheat anyone who doesn't frequent a dozen different websites.

You specifically said "older than me". So who here is older than me and uses those?

Not bad, except for the part about "confiscated Palistinian land". Until 1967 the West Bank was owned by Jordan. No one ever mentioned the "plight of the Palestinians" then. In 1967 Jordan attacked Israel over the West Bank. Israel won. Then Yassir Arafat formed the PLO and waged war on Israel. Israel responded by creating the conditions that exist today.

Israel actually treats the Muslims in-country fairly well. Do any of the Muslim countries treat Jews as well? Do you complain about that, or only about Israel and only because America supports them. Israel is surrounded by people who would gladly wipe them from the face of the earth merely for being Jews. Do you comment on that, or only on the side that suits you?

I don't condone some of Israel's actions, and I think they've gone overboard more than a few times; but given the nature of what they're up against overall, I think they've actually showed quite a bit of restraint.

Good point next time Israel will wait until some one gets killed then retaliate.
10 Palestinians for 10 Israelis.
Need good publicity lets make it 5 Palestinians for 10 Israelis.
Score for this incident is about 3 hamas terrorists killed 0 Israelis.
My apologies.

And so it begins again

The rocket attacks I mean....I'm wondering if there'll ever be a lasting peace in the area.

I used to think that of Northern Irelans as well so there may still be a positive ending.

Actually I don't know the meaning of -.- either.
Though I also don't care much actually.

That's obviously a trick question. No one here is older than Steve.

I think israel has a right to exist up to gaza. They should stop the funding from AIPAC from USA, stop harvasting organs and commiting genocide against Palestinians. Other than that, they should give up they're imperialist thinking close down all their check points hand Gaza pack to Palestine which they stole. I am very aware of the hatred of zionism which I hate zionism. Zionism is not juadism, its an extreme form and culture of the jews. Just like any religion has its extremes. I'm no diplomat so I don't know how to solve the situation but thats how I feel

"There will be peace in the Middle East when Arab mothers learn to love their children more than they hate Jews."

I think that's why a Palestinian state would never work. They'll pick a fight and get their butts kicked. I think they should pave that whole region and build a Disneyland on it. It would save a lot of fuss.
