| [Ynet] More than 40 Gazooks killed on 14th day of Operation Protective Edge; rescuers continue pulling bodies out of wreckage of house in Khan Younis. At least 572 Paleostinians have been killed and 3,350 maimed injured in 14 days of Operation Protective Edge in the Gazoo Strip, the deadliest since the 2009 Operation Cast Lead, Paleostinian emergency services said Monday. Israeli fighter planes struck homes across Gazoo, in at least four cases buryingd two or more members of the same family under the rubble, said Ashraf al-Kidra, a Paleostinian health official. One of those strikes killed nine members of a single family in Gazoo City, another killed 10 in the southern half of the coastal strip. Also, rescuers going through the wreckage of a house targeted late Sunday retrieved 28 bodies in the town of Khan Younis, including at least 24 from the Abu Jamea family, according to al-Kidra and a local human rights ...which are usually entirely different from personal liberty... group. "Doesn't this indicate that Israel is ruthless?" said family member Sabri Abu Jamea. "Are we the liars? The evidence is here in the morgue refrigerators. The evidence is in the refrigerators."
A doctor at the hospital, Fayez Zidane, said the third and fourth floors and the reception area were damaged, and patients were evacuated to the lower flowers. The Israeli military said an initial investigation suggests that anti-tank missiles were stored near the hospital and that the cache was successfully targeted. "Civilian casualties are a tragic inevitability of the brutal and systematic exploitation of homes, hospitals and mosques in Gazoo," the army said. The military has consistently said it makes great efforts to minimize civilian casualties but Hamas, always the voice of sweet reason, puts Gazooks in danger by hiding weapons and fighters in residential areas. Following the deadliest day in Gazoo since 2009, with at least 140 Paleostinians killed on Sunday, medics pulled another 68 bodies from the rubble on Monday, emergency services front man Ashraf al-Kidra said. In fighting, the Israeli military said 10 Hamas infiltrators trying to sneak in through the tunnels were killed after being detected and targeted by Israeli aircraft. Refugees and reconstruction aid Since the Israeli operation began on July 8, huge numbers of Gazooks have fled their homes, with more than 100,000 people taking shelter in 67 schools run by UNRWA, the UN agency for Paleostinian refugees, a front man said. "This is a watershed moment for UNRWA, now that the number of people seeking refuge with us is more than double the figure we saw in the 2009 Gazoo conflict," the agency's front man Christopher Gunness said in a statement. By Monday morning, a UN school on the outskirts of Shejaiya was packed to overflowing with people seeking shelter, many sleeping in the corridors, an AFP correspondent said. And several families were sleeping in the gardens of Gazoo City's Shifa hospital in the hope they would be safe from the bombing. | |

| #12 A couple of days ago I saw a chart put out by Hamas detailing the deaths in Gaza. two thirds (2/3) of the dead were military age males. If Israel is maintaining the same rules of engagement, they are doing a remarkable job of keeping civilian deaths down. if Palestinian deaths = 572, then 381 are military age males, 191 are civilians.

| #11 As with any armed conflict, some good tissue must inevitably be removed with the cancer. Hamas and their enablers are guilty of creating this situation, but don't give a damn for anything but the "Israel Bad" optics. That there are so many that buy into it is the real danger inasmuch as it keeps the cycle alive, increasing the possibility of becoming even more negatively stable in the dynamic. Kaboom(-ski?)... |

| #7 When it's muzzie on muzzie maybe it confuses the left as to who to support. I recall Nancy Pelosi going to Syria to visit Assad. |

| #6 The left treats conflicts between Israel and the muzzies differently. Syria is a somewhat different story since it is muzzie on muzzie. |

| #5 Meanwhile in Syria, 200 casualties a day is completely ignored because the lefties don't have Jews or a western nation to paint with the blood. |

| #3 An then the UN will rush in with lots of money for all kinds of aid. |

| #2 Let me gaze into my crystal ball. Yes, the picture clears. In the next few days, maybe even today, a building full of Palestinian kiddies will blow up---either a secondary explosion, or they'll set it up themselves. At which point the pressure on Israel will be ratcheted up by orders of magnitude. Having no choice, Bibi will give up. Hamas will proclaim a great victory. You in the "West" will be exposed to weeks of programs documenting Gaza's devastation & heart breaking, interviews with the survivors. |
