Looks Like a Looming Ground War in Gaza...

A GROUND WAR?: The Washington Post: "Israeli troops took up positions near the Gaza border Friday, and a senior government official said a ground war could be imminent, as Hamas militants continued to lob rockets into Israel and a missile landed near Jerusalem for the first time since 1970. The missile strikes outside Jerusalem and Tel Aviv, Israel’s main population centers, dramatically raised the stakes in the ongoing standoff between Israel and Hamas, both of which are seeking new footing in a volatile region where the Arab Spring revolutions have empowered populist strains that largely favor the Palestinian cause."

HOW HAMAS IS WINNING: Foreign Policy: "The rockets fired from the Hamas-controlled Gaza Strip crashed down harmlessly in open areas, but Hamas had nevertheless scored a propaganda victory: It had proved that it could endanger the lives of citizens in Israel's two largest cities. These latest attacks are just one indication of how, despite Israel's best efforts, Hamas's stockpile of rockets is only growing deadlier with time."

Not OT - Anonymous Declares war (I think) on IDF



Reports that 663 Israeli websites hacked and defaced...

They need to understand that they are on their own. They need to understand that it is time to open the gates of hell also.

I'm sure the Israeli IDF is quaking in their boots at this now

The more I read, the more I get the impression, that the US and others are trying to keep the lid on the kettle.

This is for sure a Chinese/Iranian/Russian Hacking organization!
