The Last few weeks I have been dismayed by the escalation in violence in the Gaza Strip and surrounding Region, However, counter to most advocacy groups and the press I am taking Israel's side in this argument

Above is the link to the Youtube User Page for the Israel Defence Forces. one of the videos shows Militants firing Mortars from just outside a UN Boys school, another shows a strike on a Mosque that was used as a weapons cache.
Yes there is conflict there and No I do not think it should come to this, but Israel has a right to defend itself. Submitted for your inspection.

Did you know:
That approximately One Million Israeli Civillians are within range of Hamas Fired Rockets and Mortar shells?
That Hamas and other Militant groups use (and have used) Mosques and schools as weapons caches?
That there was a Dramatic increase in the extent of rocket attacks and mortar shelling Despite the six month long lull in the fighting. A total of 3,278 Rockets and Mortar shells landed in Israeli territory in 2008 . (Nearly doubling the total amount fired into Israel in 2007)?
And yet the Palestinian government gave no outcry to these attacks, the world gave no outcry in the 8 years of continued attacks by rockets, shelling and suicide bombings? yet when Israel decides it has had enough and decides to fight back and defend itself everyone calls for it to stop.
Please, look to sources outside the "Free" press, look on your own and see what is going on, do not listen to what the mass media is feeding you, go out and look at the facts. yes Israel is taking a brash stance, but if you ran to a bunker at least 3 times a day for 8 years wouldn't you?
