I think it should be quieter if soldiers have been captured, Hamas uses human shields.

I wouldn't take that if I were you, bro.

or the CIA, etc

What I'm curious about: what logic is there in pretending that there is some righteous cause in helping Islamist Hamas against Israel? Why is anonymous, just like other radical leftist organizations, ignoring the Islamist provocations of Hamas??

This is what I find completely dumbfounding, and makes me look upon the otherwise libertarian principles of anonymous with contempt.

I have been working my hardest to find ANY legit information on the possible captured soldiers to no avail. So I am updating TOR and running it because I think Google is filtering my searches.

Israel denies Hamas shot down plane



BETHLEHEM (Ma'an) -- The Israeli military on Friday denied that Hamas' military wing shot down an Israeli aircraft over the Gaza Strip.

The al-Qassam Brigades said it shot down a warplane over Gaza and that Israel heavily shelled the area to destroy the wreckage.

"It's not true," an Israeli military spokesman told Ma'an.

Palestinian militants firing long-range rockets from Gaza into Israel represents a "very significant development" in the conflict with the Jewish state, Hezbollah chief Hassan Nasrallah has said.

"The firing of Fajr 5 rockets on Tel Aviv today shows the maturation, the wisdom and strength, and the courage of the Palestinian resistance in the Gaza Strip," Nasrallah said in a speech on Thursday night.

"The Israeli enemy was surprised and forced to acknowledge that its capital had been hit," said the leader of Lebanon's most powerful military force, adding that the Iranian-made rockets have a range of 70 kilometres (44 miles)

Gaza militants defied a major Israeli bombing campaign on Thursday, firing off volleys of rockets, one of which hit the sea near Tel Aviv, the farthest distance ever attained by fire from Gaza.

This is one aspect of the community here I dislike.

I couldn't agree more.

Israel has launched air strikes on more than 600 targets in Gaza since Wednesday. The BBC's Paul Danahar has visited areas of Gaza City hit by the strikes and spoken to hospital staff who fear they will soon run out of supplies in light of the rising number of injured civilians.

In his tweets (@pdanahar), documented here, he shares in his own words the scenes he witnessed. Please note that some of the description below may be disturbing.

Does anyone know if the "beep beep beep beep beep beep" on the RT feed is meant to signify something? I missed a bunch while I was at the hospital today and have yet to catch up completely, sorry if it was addressed in my absence but I have not heard that before now.

Hopefully a cease-fire and an end to hostilities.

Or, Hamas' "test" fires towards Jerusalem/Tel Aviv might be followed by actual direct hits.
