If the Israelis want to respond with bottle rockets and mortars, they're perfectly entitled to their leveymg Feb 2012 #3
Qassams and Grads are scarcely bottle rockets ProgressiveProfessor Feb 2012 #5
These "bottle rockets"... holdencaufield Feb 2012 #7
They're flying pipe bombs (literally). Not militarily effective. leveymg Feb 2012 #12
What total and utter nonsense ProgressiveProfessor Feb 2012 #40
Ok, it's like tossing 4 grenades 4 miles, and about as accurate. Happy now? leveymg Feb 2012 #42
Yes, they're just little bottle rockets & firecrackers. You keep telling yourself that... shira Feb 2012 #45
But you would presumably be outraged if Israel deliberately targeting Palestinian civilians... shira Feb 2012 #13
I'd be reassurred that far fewer of them would be killed if both used the same crude weapons leveymg Feb 2012 #14
So IOW, you'd prefer the IDF deliberately targeting Palestinian civilians w/ crude weaponry... shira Feb 2012 #17
One might conclude from that you like the sort of ordinance that kills the most Palest. "bad guys?" leveymg Feb 2012 #18
Targeting civilians with no military purpose is always wrong. shira Feb 2012 #19
Bottle rockets that rarely hit anything can't be said to be targeting anyone. leveymg Feb 2012 #20
Damn big bottle rockets DUIC Feb 2012 #21
Never seen an RPG before? Want to see a real missile, not a bottle rocket? Check out the Jericho 3 leveymg Feb 2012 #27
How many Jericho IIIs were fired into Gaza DUIC Feb 2012 #31
Problem is, only one would obliterate Gaza and central Israel with it leveymg Feb 2012 #32
The problem is your mischaracterization of Qassam Rockets and other weapons as bottle rockets DUIC Feb 2012 #33
That might be your headline, but not mine. leveymg Feb 2012 #34

I've seen tree limbs do more damage to a roof, and badly behaved 3rd graders can mess up a classroom leveymg Feb 2012 #36
Ha, go ahead and minimise this, I would like to imagine how long the USA would tolerate King_David Feb 2012 #37
We in the good ole USA didn't tolerate that sort of thing. Crunchy Frog Feb 2012 #39
You are aware that in addition to Qassams, Grad rockets are being launched from Gaza ProgressiveProfessor Feb 2012 #41
Unless used in a massed salvo, also militarily ineffective. Not worth all the hysteria leveymg Feb 2012 #43
Rather than deflecting, why not share your thoughts on the Haaretz article in the OP? n/t shira Feb 2012 #6
IMO Israel's supporters are obsessed with proving how horrid the Palestinians are because azurnoir Feb 2012 #8
You didn't comment on the OP either. You also deflected. shira Feb 2012 #9
yes I did comment on the OP but you do not like the comment azurnoir Feb 2012 #10
No, you didn't comment on it. I'm expecting some reaction to it... shira Feb 2012 #11
The so called "narrative" is played out daily in the West Bank and East Jerusalem azurnoir Feb 2012 #15
So you acknowledge it's happening & that Palestinian hate/incitement to genocide... shira Feb 2012 #16
lots of yak and little milk and you side stepped my question along with false allegations again azurnoir Feb 2012 #22
I get it. You're not disturbed in the least by all that PA/Hamas incitement in the PMW videos... shira Feb 2012 #23
oh no shira I do not expect you top be disturbed by anything Israel does azurnoir Feb 2012 #24
But what are you disturbed by WRT the community center? That it was demolished... shira Feb 2012 #25
