The people who refuse a cease fire are the people we should blame for the deaths of innocent civilians. If the people in charge truly cared they would stop killing, they would stop fighting.
What we have is a bunch of people who think it’s okay to kill to get their point across.
I have been following this ridiculous “war” for quite a while. There are no obvious good guys or bad guys. Sure most people take sides but how do you side with a terrorist?
People from the rest of the world should learn a lesson from this mindless battle. Every person who thinks ‘an eye for an eye’ is a good concept should rethink their ideology. There is a lot of revenge killing going on and it defies logic.
I don’t pray but those of you who do should pray for peace.
If there are intelligent people running the show I hope they can agree to disagree in a more civilized manner?

Peace.
and their refusal to accept and willful disregard for accepted cease fire offers, proves this.
Israel has dropped millions of leaflets urging civilians to evacuate, but Hamas tells them to proceed to the places which will be attacked, and "...bare their chests to the enemy"..
Hamas is a death cult hell bent on the destruction of Israel, and their is no logical base from which to negotiate for peace
wherein any such agreement will be instantaneously and willfully violated as soon as possible.
Several times Israel accepted a cease fire on humanitarian grounds but Hamas violated the cease fire.

Sure Hamas proposes ridiculous cease fire deals but why should Israel agree they're winning.

Perhaps but all Hamas needs to do is surrender. Not even surrender just stop attacking then the U.N. would jump on Israel to stop attacking.

I want to compare the situation in Gaza to a lion or tiger hunt. First they beat the bush driving the animals into the open, then corner them and finally shoot them dead. These hunts have no seeming purpose other than to satisfy the ego of the great hunter who executes his quarry with a rifle bullet from a safe distance.
One can hardly call that a war on tigers.
Now imagine using combined land sea and air forces to kill tigers in their caves using artillery and bombs.
Kind of overkill isn't it? In the land of Gaza, they are using sledgehammers to swat gnats.
Thats hardly a "war on terror".
