Israel Continues Kicking Ass in Gaza (With Another Awesome War Porn Video)

Posted on | November 16, 2012 | 9 Comments

It is important to keep in mind that Hamas, which rules Gaza, is sworn to the utter annihilation of Israel. So any claim that Israel is “overreacting” to the Hamas missile attacks — the implication that Israel’s actions are some kind of unwarranted aggression — must be viewed skeptically, especially when you consider that Hamas gets its missiles from Iran, which is similarly sworn to the annihilation of Israel. With these caveats, here is the “balanced” New York Times article:

Israel and Hamas brushed aside international calls for restraint on Thursday and escalated their lethal conflict over Gaza, where Palestinian militants launched hundreds of rockets into Israeli territory, targeting Tel Aviv for the first time, and Israel intensified its aerial assaults and sent armored vehicles rumbling toward the Gaza border for a possible invasion. . . .
[Israeli defense minister Ehud Barak] authorized the call-up of 30,000 army reservists if needed, another sign that Israel was preparing to invade Gaza for the second time in four years to crush what it considers an unacceptable security threat from smuggled rockets amassed by Hamas, the militant Islamist group that governs the isolated coastal enclave and does not recognize Israel’s right to exist. . . .
Health officials in Gaza said at least 19 people, including five children and a pregnant teenager, had been killed over two days of nearly nonstop aerial attacks by Israel, and dozens had been wounded. Three Israelis were killed on Thursday in Kiryat Malachi, this small southern Israeli town, when a rocket fired from Gaza struck their apartment house. . . .
Denunciations of Israel for what critics called a renewal of its aggressive and disproportionate attacks spread quickly on the second day of the aerial assaults. The biggest criticism came from the 120-nation Nonaligned Movement, the largest bloc at the United Nations. In a statement released by Iran, which holds the group’s rotating presidency and is one of Israel’s most ardent foes, the group said: “Israel, the occupying power, is, once more, escalating its military campaign against the Palestinian people, particularly in the Gaza Strip.” The group made no mention of the Palestinian rocket fire aimed at Israel but condemned “this act of aggression by the Israelis and their resort to force against the defenseless people” and demanded “decisive action by the U.N. Security Council.”

Remember: This started last week when Hamas fired more than 100 missiles into Israel. To call Israel’s response an “act of aggression by the Israelis” is simply a lie, the exact opposite of truth. Why does the New York Times feel obligated to publish Iran’s lies? I dunno.

The Iran-backed Jew-haters in Hamas are supported by freelance Jew-haters on Twitter — with warm approval from “Anonymous,” of course — and you have to ask yourself why Twitter permits this:

 

However, the hottest account on Twitter this week is @IDFSpokesperson, which provides 100% pure awesomeness:

Here is an IDF video showing a strike against a Hamas rocket warehouse. Keep an eye out for the secondary explosions:

 

Gosh, I love secondary explosions. That’s good war-porn, man.

    Michael Graham:

    For months, Hamas has been firing rockets at Israeli civilians—bus stops, schools, homes, etc. And for months, Israel has put up with attacks on its soil that no other nation would bear (can you imagine the US doing nothing while Canada fired rockets at Detroit? Uh—OK, maybe Detroit’s not a great example, but you get my point)

    Those rocket attacks got virtually no media coverage in the US or Europe. But as soon as Israel fights back, with a targeted attack on one of a specific terrorist, it’s big news.

    Hamas is a terrorist organization. Palestinian terrorists have literally blown up pizza parlors and wedding receptions, just for the opportunity to kill Jews. Rockets, mortars, and human killers, all sent in to Israel to kill the grandchildren of Holocaust survivors…and western liberals side with THEM?

    Is it anti-semitism, or just plain stupidity? Hard to tell. Either way, denouncing Israel for defending itself is the same as calling for Israel to destroy itself. And that’s really the outcome western liberals want.

    God Bless Israel.

    Golda Mier said there will not be peace until Palestinians love their children more than they hate Israelis.

    Watched the video of the PaliPinto getting hosed down after the strike. Wonder if they realize they just flushed their general down the sewer…

    Nothing says orgasm like war porn and secondary explosions !!!

    It looks like Israel is getting (really,really,really) serious about this.

    Can’t wait to see how the puss-in-chief blames this on Israel and the Republicans.
