Rockets have been fired from Gaza "across southern and central Israel, including Tel Aviv and Jerusalem, and the infiltration of Hamas militants."

Over 100 Israelis have died and more than 900 were injured after rockets were fired from Gaza by Hamas militants, Israeli officials said Saturday.

The Palestinian Health Ministry said 198 were killed in Gaza and at least 1,610 were injured Saturday in retaliatory attacks from Israel.

“We are at war. We will win,” Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Saturday.

The Israeli Defense Forces earlier declared “a state of alert for war,” according to a statement issued by the IDF.

“Over the past hour, the Hamas terrorist organization launched massive barrages of rockets from Gaza into Israel, and its terrorist operatives have infiltrated into Israel in a number of different locations in the south,” the IDF said early Saturday.

    You call that poor scared murdered girl a bully?

      I called Israel a bully, and you know that full well.

      And the far larger numbers of poor scared murdered children they’ve left behind makes me unwilling to blame anyone but the occupier and the perpetrator of apartheid who has created the situation in the first place.

      In other words, if you blame anyone but Israel for what happens in this conflict, you’re part of perpetuating the situation causing this.

        Why can’t we blame everyone who has murdered innocent civilians? Why do we have to blame one of the sides that has murdered innocent civilians, and hold the other side that has murdered innocent civilians blameless?

        I blame all of the brutish, sadistic murderers on both sides. They’re all terrible.

          Because one side creates the situation and is the sole party with the power to end it, and the other side is in an utterly desperate situation stripped of other realistic means of fighting back, and it’s unreasonable to hold the oppressed and the oppressor to the same standard because that inherently favours the oppressor.

          And because it’s wildly hypocritical when most of us live in countries that actively supports the oppressor and takes no step to stop it.

          That doesn’t mean it’s not awful, and a war crime, but the blame lies on Israel for each and every death on both sides as long as they maintain their apartheid regime and their illegal occupation.

            That is fucking unhinged

            the blame lies on Israel for each and every death on both sides

            Abuser theory. “Look at what you made me do!”

              The abuser in this case being Israel, and its decades of crimes, yes, Israel loves that excuse when the Palestinians fight back

                  I’m going to block you now, given that you choose insults as a response to pointing out Israeli war crimes and decades of human rights abuse. Talking of “unhinged”, I’ve also reported your vile personal attack.
