REUTERS/Mohammed Salem Gaza City – Israel destroyed the headquarters of Hamas’ prime minister and blasted a sprawling network of smuggling tunnels in the southern Gaza Strip on Saturday, broadening a blistering four-day-old offensive against the Islamic militant group even as diplomatic efforts to broker a cease-fire appeared to be gaining steam.

    Hamas officials said a building used by Hamas for broadcasts was bombed and three people were injured. The injured were from Al Quds TV, a Lebanon-based television channel. The building is also used by foreign news outlets including Germany’s ARD, Kuwait TV and the Italian RAI and others.

    The Israeli military spokesman was not immediately aware of the strikes but said they were investigating.

    The tragedy is that if these people would just leave us alone and get on with business, their situation would be orders of magnitude greater and we could interact with them favorably.

    But amalek hates us to their own detriment. And the world sympathizes with them. Esav soneh et yaakov

    I love how these captions say that “Palestinians are inspecting a house”
    They aren’t inspecting a house…they are looting someone’s house!

    If these people would just rise up and demand that Hamas stop firing rockets from their civilian neighborhoods.

    I feel so sorry that these people voted for Hamas in a free election a few years ago. Everyone knows the political platform of Hamas – “Israel must die and we will destroy them.” Elections have consequences.

    Just to echo what poster 1 wrote and that is I am not sure what they gain by what they’re doing because in the end they stand to lose a whole lot more. And while I don’t feel bad to see all these people that lost their homes, you have to wonder why Hamas, both the leadership and the people that live in Gaza insist on fighting Israel….

    Palestinians are not amalek. They are Gerei Toshav according to our Sages.
