Hamas Invasion, Day 5: Selected items from Times of Israel liveblog
This is just a quick overview of some of the things the Times of Israel thought merited reporting, mostly the headlines with a few more detailed pieces.

On Kibbutz Be’eri, evidence of horror everywhere
There is evidence in Kibbutz Be’eri that children were slain in front of their parents, Maj. Doron Spielman says. Knives were found left in some of the children.

Bodies are still being taken out of the kibbutz, which Spielman says will be remembered as a symbol of Hamas’s massacre, like Auschwitz is the symbol of the Holocaust.

Some 1,200 Israelis were slaughtered by the terror group, including over 100 at Be’eri alone.

Spielman says body parts of children were found, and they still do not know who they belonged to until they are matched with the DNA of living relatives.

Zaka search and rescue teams continue to work on finding and clearing bodies.

“It will take weeks to understand what happened here,” says Spielman.

In one of the homes, 40 civilians were held by 20 terrorists. The building was stormed by special forces, six of whom were killed.

A white bag lays on a walkway, the word terrorist sprayed in red on it. Inside is the corpse of a Hamas terrorist. There are over 100 others, scattered around the kibbutz.

All around are homes barely standing. Walls are collapsed, rooms are burnt and the smell of dead bodies wafts in the air.

IDF says 18 Hamas infiltrators killed in past day; army escalating strikes on Hamas
IDF spokesman Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari says Israeli forces killed 18 Palestinian terrorists in Israeli territory during the past day, as sweeps continue to root out the last Hamas infiltrators.

Overnight alone, troops exchanged fire with terrorists near Zikim twice; a tank killed a terrorist near the Erez crossing; and paratrooper forces killed two terrorists near Mefalsim, he says.

“These are the same terrorists who did not flee back to Gaza. They are in hiding places, near the border. That’s why the scans are [taking place] with a large number of troops. There are tens of thousands of [IDF] fighters in the area surrounding Gaza,” he says.

Hagari says some 5,000 rockets have been fired from Gaza at Israel since Hamas launched its murderous attack on Saturday morning.

He says the army is continuing to strike with thousands of munitions across Gaza.

“We are not stopping; on the contrary, we are heading toward increased attacks. The top priority in the attacks is to eliminate senior [Hamas] officials,” Hagari says.

#2 U.S. to muslims. Get out, stay out. If saudi-arabia can reserve areas to muslims we can reserve areas to non-muslims or as they call us 'infidels'.

#3 ^^^I worked in Riyadh about 25 years ago. The Saudis import 6-7 million 3rd-world Moslems to do the actual work in the kingdom. But Iranians and Palestinians are conspicuous by their absence. Even the Saudis know they're troublemakers and don't want them.
