I suspect you're not horrified at the thought of Tel Aviv having to put up with the annoying sound of those sirens and I suspect you want us to believe chemical weapons and 100s of missiles raining on Gaza and killing Palestinian civilians is something we should be disgusted about.

Quite clearly you are a Jew hater, a racist, a warmonger, anti-American and a Quran thumping Muslim apologist.

the sirens in jerusalem heralded two improved-kassam rockets that exploded harmlessly in open areas 20 km south of the city.

if they had hit an apartment block they could have killed scores of families.

in comparison, israel has carried out over 500 plane attacks, killing fewer than 10 civilians, while destroying hamas fighters, missiles and munition stores.

Is it confirmed that it's definitely sirens?

There were reports about 10 days ago of a loud nasally whining sound that could be heard echoing all over Tel Aviv but it turned out it was just Netenyahu finding out Romney had lost the election.

Complete bs. They have swimming pools!

Dat, thats an Apartheid statement (not resorting to calling you a bad name). The perfect win-win scenario would be, that everyone has the chance to drive a Cadillac no matter where they were born, live or what background they have. Without such an utopia as ultimate goal there will never be peace in the region. If a diligent palestinian can drive a Cadillac and a lazy Israeli a Pinto then the vicious cycle of violence will be broken.

Never in history a society agreed to fate already preset by birth. That may have worked in India for a while (caste system of Hinduism) but even there people are changing.

What civilians are being killed indiscriminately liar?

I only see Israel targeting terrorists firing rockets, and their ammunition dumps.

WHat are you talking about?
Theres no apartheid here.
Arabs here can go to Israeli universities, study and get ant Diploma or degrees they want.
They have the same opportunity as the Jews to drive a Cadillac.
Nothing stops them except their own leaders and Islam intolerance of Jews.

20,000 IDF reservists have already been called up, less than 12 hours after the cabinet approved the increase of reserves mobilization to 75,000 troops.

Palestinian sources report that the IDF just struck targets in the Gazan city of Deir al-Balah and in the Zeitoun neighborhood of Gaza City. According to reports, there are injuries in both locations.


Earlier this hour, in a 15-minute timespan, a total of 14 rockets were fired at communities in the south, including seven at the Bnei Shimon Regional Council, one at Beersheba, five at the Eshkol region and another at the Merhavim Regional Council.

The Israeli Defense Forces are continuing their crippling air campaign against Hamas targets in the Gaza Strip, with 186 terror targets struck overnight, as the rain of rockets shows no sign of abatement. The IDF Spokesperson reports at least 119 rockets fired from Gaza struck Israel on Friday, including two that exploded outside Jerusalem and another two near Tel Aviv. Iron Dome missile batteries intercepted some 82 rockets. As Palestinian casualties mount and the Israeli government signals a possible ground invasion, neither Jerusalem nor Hamas is expressing willingness to back down.

SO the Iron Dome is working well
Out of 119, 80 were intercepted.

ANd keep in mind the system doesnt intercept missiles that are going to land in a non populated open area.
