Israeli airstrikes destroyed a tower block in Gaza City after Hamas militants launched a rocket and air attack on Israel in the early hours of Saturday morning.

The Israeli army launched Operation Iron Swords against Hamas in the Gaza Strip, with Israel’s president, Benjamin Netanyahu, saying the country, is ‘at war’.

Al Jazeera journalist Youmna El Sayed was reporting live from Gaza the moment the missile struck Palestine Tower behind her.

Sources in Gaza said at least 198 Palestinians were killed in the strikes

    what are your thoughts on the rockets that came from the other side first, killing over 100 civilians?

    real example where both sides are fucked. no, there is no excuse for any of them

      “First” is very relative. If you count that as the first action, sure. But others might say it has been going on for decades with one side being oppressed by the other, being treated as sub-humans and expelled from their homes.

          Typical Zionist reaction to make that assumption. What is happening now is a disgrace, Hammaz are terrorists. But the people living in Palestine have been treated less than poorly by the Israeli government.

                tell me what Zionism is, why I am one, and why exactly you are in favour of killing civilian children.

                because to be honest holding opinions like that and throwing out tin foil hat names at people, is pretty fucked up, and sad.

                Frankly I wouldn’t be surprised if you are wearing a cape right now posting from your dads computer

      I think it’s acceptable.

      These people contribute to the pain, suffering, discrimination and oppression of the Palestinian peoples.

          I know right.

          These people allow their representatives to murder and kill in their name, they even go so far as funding a terrorist state to oppress the inhabitants of the land they are colonising, while corralling them into ghettos or as second class citizens.

          Truly disgusting of them.

            you literally said it’s acceptable to murder kids.

            you don’t get to try and justify that.

              Israel murders far more Palestinian children, do you not understand why people would fight back against that?

                if some guy kills your kid does it make it ok for you to kill his? your view is what keeps this bullshit conflict going. HAMAS loves Israel. gives those murdering fucks a reason to live. they don’t care about the dead palestinians

                  If it’ll stop him from killing your other child next, yes.

                  This conflict can only end when the one with all the power stops commiting human rights violations.
