-- Posted by neotreo at 10:52 pm on Jan. 9, 2009 someone, please... What is going on in Israel? Who are they attacking? Why? Can anyone send me links to news stories... i looked on google... but i kept finding new shit... nothing explaining why. -- Posted by Rastafarian at 10:55 pm on Jan. 9, 2009 Summary: Israel is attacking Gaza because the terrorist organization Hamas is located there and was launching rockets on them during a cease-fire. Last I heard Hezzbolah was coming to the aid of Hamas and was firing rockets on Israel from the north in an effort to relieve some of the pressure on Hamas. Hamas and Israel (not sure about Hezzbolah) also are apparently having "secret" meetings, in Egypt, in order to re-establish a cease-fire. EDIT: Goddamn, my grammar sucks. -- Posted by neotreo at 10:56 pm on Jan. 9, 2009 Quote: from Rastafarian at 1:55 am on Jan. 10, 2009 Summary: Israel is attacking Gaza because the terrorist organization Hamas is located their and was launching rockets on them during a cease-fire.
