Widening Israeli air strikes on Hamas positions as Palestinians fire mortars

Thousands of raging Palestinians turned guns and mortars on Israeli soldiers guarding the the Gaza border against mass attack, sparking upscaled and expanding Israeli air force strikes on 5 Hamas military targets. A huge explosion shook northern Gaza after the air strikes. The Palestinians report their death toll from clashes with Israeli troops Monday has risen to 5o with 2,000 injured. Hamas keyed up weeks of violent demonstrations to a new peak Monday to coincide with and steal attention from the ceremony for dedicating the first US embassy in Jerusalem.

    Hamas two-legged rats are now beyond despair – but, unlike their four-legged, normal kin,
    they would not abandon the sinking ship…

    Well then tell them to back off! Again Israel isn’t the aggressor, now they are on the defensive, as usual.

    The never ending story seems so.Palestinians have to accept the situation after 70 years.Get a life and built on their own future.Al those lost years brings them nowhere.
    Arabs are fighting against each other for 2000 years now and this will never end.They are going no where and want the same economic development like Israel by holding there hands up for free money.Great move from the USA,thumbs up.
