Terrorism in Israel

The past week or so has seen terrorism escalate significantly. Three terrorists attacked a civilian bus on its way to Eilat. The terrorists were either killed or injured in a shoot-out with the military.

These attacks were aimed directly at civilians and hit many 'targets'. 2 children among the 33 wounded in multi-terror attack.

Hamas cancels 'calm'. Since, Israel has seen many rockets and mortars fired into towns, cities and farms. Grad kills Israeli man on way to (9th-month) pregnant wife.

UN fails to condemn terror attacks, despite the fact that the "The U.N. Secretary General condemned it, the Americans condemned it, the European Union condemned it."

In the Palestinian take on matters  the rocket attacks are not denied. Please read it with discernment. Also, note that while 'a refugee camp was hit' only two people died, one of them confirmed as a having 'connections'. "The Al-Quds Brigade, the armed wing of the Islamic Jihad, confirmed that one of the men, Emad Abu Abda, was their member."

"Israel has carried out a series of air strikes on Gaza, targeting those it blamed for an attack on Thursday in which eight Israelis died." http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-middle-east-14600397

Hamas hits Israel with intent to kill civilians, which they do. They target civilians, not soldiers. Meanwhile, when Israel retaliates, it is not with the intention to kill civilians. They target the terrorists themselves, and often succeed.

Israel cannot be blamed for removing people who pose a great risk to the safety of its (peace loving) people. Executing criminals is not a crime. Hamas does not only put Israel in danger, but also their own people. Imagine having a terrorist government? How much freedom of religion would that pose? How much political freedom? Any?

Imagine living in a society where your countrymen rejoice when a Jewish child is killed? http://www.solomonia.com/wp/2011/03/celebrating-murder-with-sweets-happy-in-gaza-photos-of-family-murder-scene-celebration/ I am not entirely sure whether the above (the celebration) did happen, but it is likely.

Who seeks peace? Who values life? Think about it.
