Airstrike Kills At Least 25 at Gaza School U.N. Using as Refugee Center

U.N. officials said an Israeli strike directly hit the elementary school compound where more than 400 Palestinians had come to escape fighting in northern Gaza, and which was clearly marked as a U.N. installation. The U.N. said it was “strongly protesting” the incident and called on Israel to immediately investigate it. I will not condone what Hamas has done to the Israelis, but at the same time, the offensive is killing children. Why was a school a direct strike by the Israelis? This is crazy because if the same thing was done to an Israeli school, all hell would break loose. The read more, CLICK HERE.

Israeli and Hamas Conflict Continues

As the conflict continues in the Middle East between Israel and Hamas, all Sunday morning talks shows are discussing who’s to blame. Some blame Israel while others blame Hamas. They also look to the president elect to make a statement of who’s to blame in this situation.

President Bush made a statement blaming Hamas for the continued rocket bombings on Israeli citizens; and for once I have to agree. Israel is only defending itself from a group (not all Palestinians are members of Hamas or agree with their tactics) that wants them removed from the face of the earth.

When Hamas came into power, instead of trying to build and/or rebuild Palestine, they chose to spend all their money on rockets, not schools, infurstructure or anything of the sort; rockets.

Their needs to be a resolution to this situation and personally, I think the US should stay out of it as much as possible.
