Some are saying it's back up for them. I don't know what THAT means, unless it's system overload. Just have to watch. We use Twitter a bit in the office here and it seems to be "flickering" for about the last 30 min in one place or another in the world. Since the US will be assisting Israel with "support", someone somewhere may be trying to isolate an area of the world (the ME) and shut Twitter down for a while as a part of OPSEC. I know the voices aren't real, but man do they come up with some great ideas! Semper Fi USMC Very much an Occams Razor kind of guy. Bridging the gap between "It can't happen to us" and "We're all going to die". |

According to Hamas figures, 16 Palestinians have been killed and 151 wounded in Gaza since the start of Operation Pillar of Defense. Hamas says it has fired 527 rockets at Israel, while Islamic Jihad has fired 138. (Avi Issacharoff) 10:41 P.M. UN Secretary General Ban Ki-Moon notifies Israeli government of an upcoming visit to Jerusalem, Cairo, and Ramallah, to take place on Tuesday, following the escalation of the situation in the Gaza Strip. The Foreign Ministry adds that at this stage, the UN Secretary General is not expected to visit Gaza. In addition, it is still unclear if Ban will arrive equipped with a plan for a cease-fire.

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 9700822 Negative if it was a quick sweep of Gaza. If it takes too long, and or Hezbollah get into it and/or Syria and/or Iran, then it would be another story. There are more ifs than not, but simple part of it right now, no. Economics and diplomacy are as far as Egypt will take it right now. |

I know they had made threats earlier i reference to defending Gaza should Israel move forward with ground operations/ haven't heard anything very recent as I'm again catching up - today I've only been able to duck in here from time to time.
