Maybe its Israel shooting rockets at itself, to try and push Obama into a anti-palestinian state of mind?

I wouldnt put it passed them.

Still, the timing does have to do with the Obama victory, one way or another.

Looks for all the world like Israel instigated this one - and it certainly would not be the first time they've launched an otherwise provocative attach while the world's (media) attention was diverted.

I'm starting to hate the jews. They think they could do what ever they want and give the stupidest excuses!

According to Sky news, The palestinian President has released a statement congratulating Obama on his victory and urging him to "speed up the Middle East peace process".

I think we should effing stay out of other country's business!! Especially the Israel and Palestine conflict, it's too controversial and we've already enabled Israel to kill thousands of innocent people for some stupid agenda.

Besides Palestine has a right to defend itself against it's occupiers just like Iraq has that right and Tibet.

Just think of the potential this Earth would have to be a happy place if there was no war and we all just stayed out of each other's business

I don't think that's right at all. It's not the Jews it's the Zionists persecuting the Jews who live in that area. Zionists hate religious Jews.

That's all well and good except we're allied with Israel. We'll see how long that lasts under the Obama presidency.

As Obama took the stage in Chicago to thank his supporters, Sky News in the UK was reporting that Palestine had launched rocket attacks on Isreal.

So, is this a message to Obama to beware the Middle East or is it the start of something bigger?

Is this the first test for Obama?

Please don't be silly.
No country in that region could attack Israel.
Israel has advanced military capabilities similar to the US and Europe.
And although the stupid Palestinkians throw some rockets at them now and then.
Israel is very well defended.
Most Israeli's I meet don't want any silly wars.

You have got to be kidding me.
Some palestinian squatting in a gravel pit shooting rockets into israel has other things on his mind besides who the next US president is.

Trying to find the catalytic motivation for said rocketeer is a bit like arguing weather the chicken or the egg came first.

Obama would never cut our ties with Israel. It wouldn't be aloud. The only reason we're allied with Israel is because the Zionists run our country and they have the same agenda of taking over the Holy Lands.

Whats scary is Isreal has an untold amount of nucleur weapons,I've heard estimates from 200 to 1200,sounds like enough to wipe out the middle east,or if we piss them off might lob a few in our direction,I'm thinking we are on verge of WW3

Um well they'd be starting a little too early as Obama is currently the President-Elect and Pres Bush is still acting President and can/will/has (whatever) take action against them.

Actually from response of military and politicians here - that say that Israel considers the truce valid (even after 40 plus rockets fired at Israeli civilians), then my guess is that Israel indeed done something first and this is response by Hamas - not Palestinian authority. In Gaza rules Hamas. Timing is weird.
As for tunnel for food and stuff - those kind of tunnels go to Egyptian side. All tunnels dug to Israeli side are used for terror acts. Soldier was kidnapped via one,Israeli driver of fuel tanker (that supplied Gaza) was killed by terrorists using tunnel and other attacks.
As for hating the Jews - ok, but show me how rest of humanity is better then i will think that your point is valid, for what it is worth. Your country surely has skeletons in the closet, so if you ok with something hating you personally for that - then your moral position is consistent, at least.
