My Comment: Rockets are now hitting north of Tel Aviv, reservists are being called up, tit for tat attacks are now becoming the norm .... in my book this is the start of a war. The only question that needs to be answered is .... will there now be an Israeli ground invasion. What's my prediction .... because no one is trying to broker a ceasefire that will deescalate the crisis .... this conflict is only going to escalate into an all out shooting war and invasion. It is night time in Israel-Gaza right now .... morning is 7-8 hours away .... what is going to happen in the next 12 hours is going to dictate where this conflict is going to go.

Duh!
There are various definitions of war. One is that 1,000 people die in a year and a government is one of the actors.
Well, Israel is a governments as is Hamas (depending on definition. There were elections).
You shoot 80 to 800 missiles or rockets and you can get 1,000 deaths. Hamas has been trying for 1,000 deaths. They have failed, but it has not been thru lack of trying. Ergo they are at war.
I would say "Piss on them".
I would like to see 2 states were people are making a good living. At this time I only see one state, Israel able to do this. The PLO has had plenty of transfer payments. They should have taken the Singapore route and gotten wealth already.
Of the 2 states, Israel & Palestine there is only one that I would feel safe living next to.
My post was hastily and poorly written.
"The Duh!" part refers to the so called journalists of the 4th estate.

"I can’t help but suspect this statistic would look less grim if our media were even slightly more informed about the things they act like they know so much about."

It's OK Aizino. I think most of us know what you meant.
