Palestinian Boy Kidnapped and Murdered.

Ground offensive has begun

Just saw that - why oh why are they doing this? Rational human beings? I despair

Netanyahu proving himself to be as bad as Sharon. The cold and calculated murder of children goes beyond war, but Israel get away with more than any country on the planet besides the USA.

What on earth is this ground offensive going to achieve? Israel have said they want to ensure that Gaza has no more rockets etc., but realistically can they ever achieve this. The world has gone to shit.

 

[BlueHammer85]

limited offensive concentrating on terrror tunnels that allow weapons from Egypt coming through, the Eastern Corridor, so it is a concentrated attack

Apologies for this question but I've spent most of today reading the history on Palestine and Israel and the whole issue and I'm still not clear on what either want to achieve, I assume the Palestinians want to have the freedom to live where they want in the whole area and the Israelis want rid of the people in the Gaza Strip? Am I on the right track? Where do the Israelis expect the ppl that live there now to go?

Journalists have been given 30 minutes to evacuate Gaza

On twitter a guy just said he can hear tanks rolling into Gaza

Hopefully Israeli soldiers will be more selective than Israeli aircraft fingers crossed,only time will tell.

No, you're nowhere near the right track. Literally all of what you've just said is completely wrong.

What are they hoping to achieve then? They must be striving for something?
Skashion if you are going to answer please try and not be sarcastic I am genuinely interested but with all the occupations historically and British intervention in 1948 I really don't know what each side wants?
