This was predictable. The UN is controlled by the 57-government Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC), which is why it constantly condemns Israel while ignoring genuine human rights abusers around the world, and the enemies of Israel want to stop the Israelis from doing significant damage to Hamas. “UN calls for Israeli-Palestinian cease-fire,” Associated Press, July 12, 2014:
UNITED NATIONS (AP) — The U.N. Security Council is calling for a cease-fire in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict centered on Gaza.
A council statement approved Saturday by all 15 members calls for de-escalation of the violence, restoration of calm and a resumption of direct negotiations between Israel and the Palestinians aimed at achieving a comprehensive peace agreement based on a two-state solution.
The press statement expresses “serious concern regarding the crisis related to Gaza and the protection and welfare of civilians on both sides.” It calls for respect for international humanitarian law, including the protection of civilians.
The press statement, which is not legally binding but reflects international opinion, is the first response by the U.N.’s most powerful body, which has been deeply divided on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

We want Bibi to stick to his guns (literally, to use an extremely apropos expression from the Old West).
This time, Bibi, “Finish the job.”
In talking with other foreign leaders, Bibi has an excellent point that shuts up the criticism (at least in the then current phone call),
“You wouldn’t rockets being lobbed into your country. And neither will we!”

Hamas: 100 rockets fired
Israel: silence
Hamas: 300+tickets fired
Israel: don’t make me angry
Hamas: 3 teen abducted
Israel: I WILL FIND THEM
Hamas: 3 were killed
Israel: F16- check,
Merkava4 -check,
Short range missiles -check
Drones – check
Armed troops – check It is the time to deploy.
Hamas: oh , god save us.
World, we are under
attack, save.

Brilliant comment. Hope you don’t mind if I pinch it for further distribution on Facebook.

Better to eliminate the hamas problem once and for all and suffer the political fallout, even if this fallout is long term. Eventually, international relationships (with non-islamic) countries will normalise and there will be no more hamas attacks from gaza.

Exactly, Robert!
Go get’em Tiger!! We support Netanyahu and Israel! And this campaign to take out Hamas is loooong overdue.

Never underestimate the cleverness of these Islam inspired leaders.
Imagine the amount of careful calculations involved in a public stoning.
Just the right torture sized rock
— not (too small) to bore the impatient bloodthirsty crowd
— not (too large) to end all their fun too early in round #1
The victim is tied and or buried partially but not so much so to restrict movement at contact to entertain the many Allah wannabes.

Israel has actually tried to be nice to Gaza:
1) They unilaterally withdrew, uprooting thousands of settlers.
2) A Jewish philanthropist funded several greenhouses in the old settlements.
3) Free medical care has been provided many Gazans, even for some Hamas jihadists and their relatives.
4) Have given agricultural advice to Gaza farmers.
5) Despite rockets, Israel has provided electricity and allowed food shipments.
In repayment, the greenhouses became rocket launching sites, and Hamas has launched thousands of rockets.
The lesson: There is no quid pro quo with supremacists. As long as Israeli refuse dhimmitude they will be attacked. Hamas wants domination, not reciprocation.

Plus the IDF dressing station at Golan treating wounded from both sides brought in by the Syrians.
The station was/is now a field hospital so as to provide a higher level of medical help.
Once stabilised the Syrians are evacuated to hospitals in Israel.
Once well enough the Syrians are smuggled back into Syria as to do so openly would see the wounded targeted by whatever Syrian faction got to them.

The UN is about as relevant as that “exhausted ruler” of the Sons of the Desert Lodge which Laurel and Hardy belonged!
Time for the UN to be defunded, then kicked off US soil — and they should take their ugly anti Bill of Rights “gun statue” with them …..
Anxious to see how khalifa Barak Hussein will have the US representative “vote.”
Our holy imam will surely try to talk Israel into some form of surrender … again !
Bibi should forget the PR war — CBS, CNN, ABC, PBS, RT, AlJazeera are all of the terrorists side. IDF should (and must !) win the shooting war!.

There will of course be a cease fire. The moment Hamas is incapable of firing anything further. Till then I’m going to go with HELL NO!

Strangely, no one has yet come up with a believable excuse as to why child Muhammad’s pet ants had no legs and his pet flies had no wings.

The UN needs to mind it’s useless business and let Israel to to these what they have coming
ca;i says
Just this ones – I want Bibi to finish the job on behalf of the Jewish People. To heck what they say – two-state solution my foot; that will never happen.
If Bibi caves in now – he’ll fin himself in the same position again if not worse the next time.
Obama has done everything he could to have enemies surround Israel; nothing but total annihilation will stop this barrage of rockets into Israel.

Here is what that self-appointed U.N. Security Council defends:
Koran (chapter and verse given for proof)
047.004 – Beheadings
033.052 – Gang Rape of female ‘infidels’
005.033 – Crucifixions
008.067 – Treason
033.061 – Genocide “without mercy”

If those aren’t laws from Satan – then what would be Satan’s laws?
It takes a real low-life thug to support such evil. America needs an administration that will cut off all ties with the self-appointed u.n. security council (security for evil).
