Thanks for that link so we can get back to "monitoring and updating".
I have my own opinions about who's to blame for this but I won't be dragged there...

Come on guys. We've been doing really good at keeping this non-partisan, and giving really good updates. Let's leave any "anti-group" comments out of this.

It opens up to an article about Israel's 36 hour window to Hamas. And it is also a Jewish website.

Don't underestimate the Iranian military. They're one of the better military groups in the Middle East. It's the Republican Guard units that are the bad ones.

They haven't fought in over 200 years again right?

Cant hey even use a warship properly in real war situation?

I dunno...

US prevents UN statement failing to mention rocket fire

www.ynetnews.com...

Russia sought to approve a Security Council press release which does not mention the rockets fired at Israel by Hamas and Israel's right to self defense. The US prevented the message from being released. (Yitzhak Benhorin, Washington)

That's the first story I can find online about the 36 hour ultimatum so 36 hours from then would be ~ Tuesday evening around 6 pm Israel time.... just over 12 hours from now.

That link opens with a "ISRAEL UNDER ATTACK - donate" ... it kinda boiled my blood... Donate? Really? That must be a bad joke.

I just went there and wanted to donate, but I cant find out where to donate on the site.

Can you help me please? to donate that is.

GFP provides a unique analytical display of data covering global military powers with statistics compiled through various sources. All manner of countries are considered in the ranking, a spectrum helping to produce a near-complete comparison of relative military strengths from across the globe. The user should note that nuclear capability is not taken into account for the final ranking for this listing is purely a "numbers game" meant to spark debate and including nuclear weapons would clearly defeat its purpose. Therefore GFP comparisons are for consideration in a conventional war based solely on each individual nation's capabilities on land, at sea and through the air while including logistical and financial aspects when waging total war. Sources are stated whenever possible though some statistics are estimated if official numbers are not available.

Iran 12, Israel 10, and the US #1.



And dead last at 55 is Qatar.

Both articles are from February, even though one has a date of today. It talks about a ship that docked on Feb 4th.

Reuters is showing one of the Iron Dome launch sites right now.

Medical sources at al-Shifa hospital announced that one Palestinian died while four Journalists from Al Arabiya and Hona al Quds were injured in the airstrike targeting the tower; the tower was targeted by Israeli air forces two days ago, injuring a number of journalists.

Medical sources added that another Palestinian; Amer al-Malahi was killed in an airstrike targeting a group of people in al- Mughraqa town, south of the city of Gaza.

They said that a civilian was critically injured when Israeli navy boats opened fire at Palestinians in Nuseirat refugee camp in Gaza, while Israeli warplanes shelled al-Qarara, north east of Khan Younis injuring several; one of whom in critical condition.

With these recent attacks, the death toll reached 96 since the beginning of war on Gaza on November 14th.
