GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip (AP) — Palestinian militants took aim at Jerusalem for the first time Friday, launching a rocket attack on the holy city in a major escalation of hostilities as Israel pressed forward with a relentless campaign of airstrikes in the Gaza Strip.
Israel called up thousands of reservists and massed troops along the border with Gaza, signaling a ground invasion of the densely populated seaside strip could be imminent. The attack on Jerusalem, along with an earlier strike on the metropolis of Tel Aviv, raised the likelihood that Israel would soon move in.

If you could build a country on hate and murder, the nation of Palestine would have been established decades ago.
Also Palestinians are emboldened when they see Obamas "Arab Spring" policy which allowed the previously banned Muslim Brotherhood to return to power. Let's see what our "Experienced" Commander in Chief does now. Without a Teleprompter.

Israel better take care of this problem themselves because they surely will get NO help from Obama. Israel knows that Obama and the misfits that work in the White House are totally incompetant. After they finish with Hamas, Israel ought to keep going and take of Iran as well.
On 9/11/01 19 radical muslims attacked our civilian population. As result we attacked not one, but two foreign countries and overthrew two governments, all at a loss of several thousand more Americans. This response was essential (at least in Afghanistan) for our future protection...........Israel should have no less right to attack its attackers, even when they hide in civilian areas. Hamas can't hold up it's dead babies to the world and cry foul when it shoots rockets from those babies' back yards.........and just as an aside, had we not shifted forces to overthrow Saddam we would have been stronger in Afghanistan and the Arab Spring would have eventually taken care of Saddam and his family.
