There's a big difference between this incursion into Gaza compared with previous ones. Earlier ones had media blackouts with no journalists being allowed in. This time a lot is being reported through social media which is showing what utter b******s the Israeli forces are being. One shudders to think what unreported atrocities were committed in earlier 'invasions'.

While i value your comments as 'the view from the other side', it is beneath you to try and claim to be objective. Mmmm...Compared to you on here so far I'd say I'm quite objective. Still, it's true that I do have a heavy bias towards Israel when it comes to Hamas. That's because I know what Hamas is, its constitution and who its backers are.....I'm western and believe in democracy....Yes to that extent I'm bias. Israel can vote out this government, whereas Hamas can't be reasoned with due to what they actually are. There can never be peace while they exist politically...Israel are right about this. Outside of that I do regard myself as objective on the matter. I don't support this action nor this Israeli government. I don't support west bank settlements nor the lack of support for moderates. I do support Israel's right to exist because I don't support the alternative. I recognise the injustice in 47. I recognise the huge problem this causes. I support a two state solution but I recognise the lack of incentive, in real terms, for Israel to set this up......It is a huge risk for them with debatable upside.....The UN would have to be involved heavily....Not the bias lot that currently reside down there. There is no such thing as 'quite objective'. Israel is not a democracy, it is a racist state, so you don't owe them your allegiance on that basis (I’m sure we already covered this). Hamas indeed will never recognize the right of Israel to exist, it was created specifically in response to the Israeli occupation and it is the continuance of this illegal occupation that continues to be the best recruiting agent for Hamas.....as Israel well knows. The truth is, if Israel were primarily committed to reducing the rocket attacks and keeping its civilians safe it would return the land it has stolen thus reducing support for Hamas. Of course, Israel’s main priority is the destruction of Palestine and to counter the threat of a two state solution to the middle-east crises so it uses any excuse to act militarily, raise tensions and round and round we go......
