Israeli air strikes attacked Gaza on Sunday, killing at least a dozen people, after Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu warned the bloody offensive would continue as long as necessary.

Sixty-four Israeli soldiers and four civilians in Israel have been killed.

@tanveer It has been a dream of Muslims to see an end of Israel but it is a farfetched reality. Emotions & sentiments without resolution & conviction do not change the course of history.

Those who think that Israel is likely to disappear one day are dreaming. Israel has made a strong stand against every opposition & enemy. Hamas & its allies need to think hard before they are pummelled into dark ages.

If your wish come true then i am 100% sure you will not find any Arabian country as well.
Israel is not India, which will accept "bleed by thousand cuts" policy.

Only when Palestine and Arab people learn to give up violence and redirect their energies to take care of the matters of their own people as Israelis do amidst all this chaos, will they have peace and prosperity. Looking for destruction will achieve only self destruction. Arabs have very poor leadership bent on war not progress. That is the advantage of their enemies.
