    They obviously don’t mind dying young.

    The sooner the green men announce themselves and put religion to bed the better.

    Weird seeing Hamas bragging about this. It's like celebrating giving your opponent a bloody nose before they pulled your head off.

    People would just find another excuse ...

    ... Hitler killed multi-millions and justified it by claiming Germany had run out of living space.

    America had a Civil War, and killed each other, over cotton.

    You'd be surprised at what groups come together when they have the same enemy.

    Russia's Medvedev speaking ( re Israel Hamas) about how violence, war, murdering civilians and kidnap etc are totally unacceptable and it all needs to stop. You couldn't make it up

    You have missed the point.
    The Hamas Fighters don't care, and they have nothing to lose.
    To them this is a Holy War. Get killed and it's a ticket to Paradise.

    There is a right-wing Israeli Government against a desperate Terrorist Organisation.
    It sounds as if neither side will be able to give an inch, as neither will want to lose face!

    God help all the innocent souls caught up in this.

    US army official says more funding needed to support needs of both Israel and Ukraine
    A US army official says more funding will be needed to support the needs of both Israel and Ukraine simultaneously.

    Army Secretary Christine Wormuth said Congress will need to approve additional funding to ensure the Pentagon's munitions production and acquisition plans can potentially meet the demands of both countries.

    "One thing that is really important in terms of the munitions in particular and our ability to support both potentially the Israelis and the Ukrainians simultaneously is additional funding from Congress to be able to increase our capacity, in terms of our capacity to expand production and then to also pay for the munitions themselves," she told reporters at an army event.

    "We need additional support from Congress. So I hope we'll see that soon."

    Of course. Give us more public money... we need it to give to private interests. Cos safety.

    I’m no doubt not informed properly but it seems ironic that the Jews were forced into ghettos in Europe in the last century and went on to do exactly the same to Palestinians in Israel/Palestine.

    I haven’t got a clue who is right or wrong in this conflict. I do feel really sorry for the ordinary Palestinians and Israeli’s though.

    Simon Reeves on Palestine is a really good watch, opens your eyes a bit. I hear people are are saying now they don’t know why the Palestinians are attacking for they will only make it worse. Honestly I don’t think you could make their life any worse and that is what they believe as well.

    It was always a dog's dinner of a solution going right back to 46. Maybe the Allies should have seen the level of religious nuttery on both sides and thought again, but it's different times I suppose.

    The issue is that neither side wants a solution that benefits the other. It's total victory or nothing and it's never changed. It makes Ireland look like a piece of piss to sort out.

    It's a completely different mindset over there too. They're just not like us so it's hard to understand either side - the hyper aggression of Israel and the Hamas insistence on poking the bear and the inevitable consequences for normal people.

    That’s one job I really wouldn’t want, have to nearly be a mad person to do that.

    Hopefully Andrew Neil is completely wrong on these unconfirmed reports.

    My god, and they claim to be religious fanatics, utterly unspeakable if this is true. Murdering scum more like.
