The Israeli Air Force bombed 40 mosques in Gaza Tuesday night, July 30, in the most extensive operation against Hamas’ religious institutions-cum-military bases so far. In total, at least 50 mosques have been blown up along with their stockpiles of rockets and arms caches.
These concentrated air strikes on rocket arsenals are as integral to Operation Protective Edge as the ground work in destroying tunnels. They have been stepped up in advance of the preparations launched by the government on Wednesday for the possible termination of the IDF ground operation in the Gaza Strip and the withdrawal of troops. debkafile's sources say that the order to end the ground operation in Gaza would not mean that the war is over. There are no illusions about the Palestinian extremist groups laying down their arms. In practical terms, therefore, Israeli troops will regroup and spread out along the border as a barrier against future Hamas attempts to keep up its terror offensive by means of cross-border commando raids using undiscovered tunnels and firing rockets and mortars into Israel.
Prayers up for Israel.
But bombing mosques is a war crime. The secondary explosions might harm innocent civilians.
..Let’s hope ALL those Virgins, are either lambs/goats..or look like NAZI Pelosi / Helen Thomas.
Hillary Clinton , I mean John Kerry will rebuild them at no cost to Gaza
Thanks, for that..looked like my apt. in the '80s.
L!My husband and I sat with Helen Thomas’s niece on a cross country flight. She was absolutely a “ten” and a wonderful personality. She was a conservative also, which is how we got to talking, pro-life all the way!
I recognized the Cole Porter lyrics and composition right away.
And kick the can down the road a little longer. It will be worse next time.Maybe it will be less one sided and the Americans will be pleased that the Jews are dying at the same rate as the jihadists.
It was appropriate unto the situation.
Meanwhile, the toll of potential Israeli citizen deaths from Hamas rockets continues to rise. The toll recently passed the 100,000 mark and now stands at 104,120.
Had the thousands of Hamas rockets struck the densely populated Israeli targets the death toll would have been 104,120. The Iron dome and poor aim prevented the genocidal scale death toll.
“secondary explosions”
Ha ha ha.
Let them decry it. Let them also decry the UN clinic that was built with booby trap explosives in the walls.
Thanks. Now that we can see their 72 virgins, it’s readily understandable why they’re so deeply into drugs.
That applause GIF is what I was looking for. Bravo Israel, Bravo.
They don't have far to go.
mosques got bombed? Not gonna hear me crying about it. Go Israel!
That applause GIF is what I was looking for. Bravo Israel, Bravo.
That’s a pretty picture!
