Answer 1

In order to signal permission that its own citizens may be targeted by Gazan rocket attacks.

Answer 2

A constant bombing of Gaza is both unnecessary to protect Israeli interests and disatrous to the Palestinian population. (This is not to say that Israel is constantly bombing Gaza, rather it is addressing the question as to why stopping bombing a country would be desirable.)

Answer 3

Responder #2 can relax. There is no "constant bombing of Gaza".

The thing that you DO have be concerned about: Who brainwashed you into believing that there is, and how and why did they do it ?

To put the situation into perspective, though, it could be useful to elaborate on the concept hinted at in Answer #1, and to ponder the following scenario for a few moments:

Suppose, just for the sake of discussion, that Mexico refuses to accept the legitimacy of the USA, and in its own constitution, proclaims its goal of eradicating this country. And suppose also that during a single recent year, more than 1600 unguided short-range rockets were launched northward from Tijuana to land in residential neighborhoods in Chula Vista, Coronado, El Cajon, La Jolla, and San Diego. Making no statement or recommendation, I merely pose the question: How much time do you suppose would elapse before a few training flights from the naval facilities at Imperial Beach, Coronado, and El Centro were dispatched southward, first to neutralize the launch facilities and the factories that manufacture them, and later to convert Tijuana into a hole in the ground, full of window glass and smoldering nails ?

When will the killing in Gaza Stop?

The answer depends on whether you take a Palestinian viewpoint or an Israeli viewpoint. Palestinians allege that Israel is occupying the Gaza Strip and in so doing murdering Palestinians. Israelis allege that they would prefer to leave Gaza alone, but are drawn into the conflict by the constant barrage of rockets and attacks. The bottom line is that the killing will not stop until both sides are willing to accept a peaceful solution to the conflict.


Who was involved in the Gaza War?

Depending on who you ask, Israel or Gaza can be responsible.Gazan Perspective: It's Israel's FaultIsrael broke the peace treaty and subsequently launched operation 'Cast Lead' a massive military offensive against a civilian population. It banned foreign press from entering Gaza. It used white phosphorus (a chemical weapon) on UN sanctioned hospitals and schools (a war crime). Within 23 days the death toll had reached 1,284 Palestinians dead, 6 IDF by enemy fire and 3 IDF by friendly fire. When the operation had finished Israel had claimed more land from the Gaza strip in the name of security zones for their protection.Israeli Perspective: It's Hamas' FaultHamas failed to control both its own militants and those of the group Islamic Jihad to abide by the terms of the hudna (ceasefire) that they had negotiated with Israel and did not seem interested in renegotiating. They fired large volleys of rockets repeatedly into Israeli territory. After growing Israeli resentment over the attacks, the Israeli government saw fit to use a military incursion to stop the rocket bombardments.

When did Israel raid the flotilla?

because Israel had to keep the blockade on the Gaza strip- there were already several times that Israel caught ships and boats with tons of rockets and other weapons -while those boats were disguised as something else. Israel offered the flotilla to board at an Israeli port 20 km from Gaza -where the supply will be checked and then transferred to Gaza but the flotilla refused for hours, ones they were about to enter the Territorial water of Gaza, Israel had to stop them.

When did US aid to Israel stop?

It has not stopped. Israel is a recipient of US foreign aid, in the form of grants and loan guarantees. Other current recipients of US foreign aid include Egypt, Jordan, Pakistan, India, Russia, West Bank and Gaza.


How could the war between Gaza and Israel stop?

If by stop, you mean "ceasefire", then it is quite easy. Each side periodically signs such documents, usually with an Arab State like Egypt negotiating. If by stop you mean "harmonious peace", then there are a variety of preconditions that each side has that the other is not terribly inclined to follow. Gaza would require that Israel remove the blockade, promote the Palestinian Right of Return, Israeli Withdrawal to the 1949 Boundaries, and Recognition of the Palestinian State. Israel would require the immediate demilitarization of the Palestinian Territories, accepting of the 1949 borders with land-swaps in agreed upon places, and accepting Israel's Right to Exist as Jewish Democratic State.

Why did Hezbollah not assist the Palestinians during the Gazan War of 2008?

Answer 1Hezbollah are based in Lebanon, although in reality they are from Iran and are of Iranian nationality. They live and work in Lebanon. Hezbollah is a milita and despite what most people believe, Hezbollah does not have absolute power over governments. That is, even Hezbollah and other militas can only do what the governments will allow them to do.The current Gaza crisis now in January 2009 is very similar to the Lebanon invasion of 2006. And it has been reported that other governments have not done anything to stop the Israeli bombing of Gaza. Hamas is also not helping the people in Gaza either. Also Gaza cannot be reached easily by other countries, as to get there one has to go Israel, and this is difficult. As Israel does not allow a lot of people into the country, people with Syrian or Lebanese passports and with passports from most other countries Arab and others who are not at peace with Israel or have not signed a peace treaty. Egypt and Jordan have, but even citizens of those countries cannot get into Israel. Egypt has closed its borders with Israel and Israel won't let anybody in or out now. Hezbollah and other militas cannot get into Israel anymore than anybody else can. They and other militas have been forbidden by the Lebanese government from intervening in any way.The Iranian government, who originally created Hezbollah, fears that if Hezbollah or other militas get involved in any way with the currant crisis, Israel will invade Lebanon again or even invade Iran or other Arab countries. As mentioned Hezbollah cannot go against the government,and also the country, Israel and Gaza is closed to outsiders.There for entry into or out of by the militas is impossible. Other governments want to help, but Israel is closed even to other governments. The Israelis have killed and arrested innocent people trying to help aid workers and reporters. So Gaza is out of reach for everybody and people in Gaza are trapped there, as they cannot get out.Answer 2There are a few reasons why Hezbollah has not assisted the Palestinians during the Gazan War of 2008.Lack of Access: Hezbollah has no naval craft and could not have made an amphibious landing in Gaza or Egypt to begin an offensive in Gaza against Israel.Avoiding an Invasion of Lebanon: Hezbollah is aware from the 2006 Israeli-Hezbollah War that Israel is more than willing to hunt them down if they violate the UN Ceasefire Zone along the Israeli-Lebanese border to attack from Lebanon. Hezbollah may have packaged the war as a victory against Israel, but it was not interested in losing militants for no real benefit.Dead Body Propaganda: Hezbollah at its core is not interested in the Palestinians, but the eradication of Israel. Nothing makes Israel look worse than numerous civilian casualties in Palestine. As a result, they also choose to intentionally do nothing to prolong the fighting and increase the number of Palestinian deaths to humiliate Israel.Iranian Prohibition: Iran is more than happy to maintain the current Iranian-Israeli Proxy Wars, but Hezbollah's direct involvement in the Gazan War could spark a rise from mere proxy wars to actual war. Iran wishes to avoid conflict until a time when it could assure victory and has ordered Hezbollah to stand down.Notes on Answer 1There are a few assertions that Answer 1 makes that are false:Hezbollah is under the yoke of the Lebanese government: This has been proven to not be the case. When Hezbollah did not win the Lebanese elections later in 2009, they launched a military attack on the capital until parts of their vision were realized for Lebanon. While Hezbollah may take Lebanese laws into account, it is not bound by them.Gaza can only be reached by Israel: While this is the current political reality, it is not the geographic reality. Egypt maintains a border crossing at Rafah. However, Egypt, both under Mubarak and later under Morsi has kept the border closed. Egyptians are just as afraid of the Gaza Hamastan as the Israelis. However, there are numerous smuggling tunnels between Egypt and Gaza, so Hezbollah militants could get into Gaza if they really wanted to go.Israel's borders were closed: Israel's borders with all of its neighbors (Jordan and Egypt) remained open throughout the conflict. There may have been increased border procedures since the country was at war. The only borders that were under strict scrutiny were those with the Gaza Strip. Getting into and out of Israel was not a problem. Hezbollah would have a problem entering Israel since Lebanese, Syrian, and Iranian citizens cannot enter Israel (as their countries reject its legitimacy).


Why did Gaza fire rockets into Israel?

For months now Gaza has been sending misiles into Israel. A peace treaty was established but Hamas, a terrorist group in Gaza, repeatedly broke this treaty by continuing to send rockets into Israel. Israel is simply responding to months of attacks. When the Peace treaty was ended by Hamas, the rocket fire when up to 80 per day. After Cast lead the rocket attacks went down to 2 - 3 a weekAnswerWorld history has been littered with plantations and occupations and the results have always been the same, death, destruction and resistance eventually leading to assimilation or overthrow. Good examples are to be seen in various empires including the Roman empire and the British empire. Answer1). Gaza is under military occupation. Article 42 of the Hague Regulations stipulates, a "territory is considered occupied when it is actually placed under the authority of the hostile army," and that the occupation extends "to the territory where such authority has been established and can be exercised." Similarly, in the Hostage Case, the Nuremburg Tribunal held that, "the test for application of the legal regime of occupation is not whether the occupying power fails to exercise effective control over the territory, but whether it has the ability to exercise such power." Palestinians living in the Gaza Strip, like those in the West Bank, continue to be subject to Israeli control. For example, Israel controls Gaza's air space, territorial waters, and all border crossings. Palestinians in Gaza require Israel's consent to travel to and from Gaza, to take their goods to Palestinian and foreign markets, to acquire food and medicine, and to access water and electricity. Without Israel's permission, the Palestinian Authority (PA) cannot perform such basic functions of government as providing social, health, security and utility services, developing the Palestinian economy and allocating resources.2). Terrorists or freedom fighters depending on your point of view continue to resist the Israeli occupation with rocket attacks. The reality is the rockets contain no warhead and no guidance system. It can argued that the rockets are nothing more than a large firework with no powder. The mortality rate from rocket attacks since 2001 in Israel is 0.002%3). In January of 2009, Israel broke the peace and launched operation 'Cast Lead' a massive military offensive against a civilian population. It banned foreign press from entering Gaza. It used white phosphorus (a chemical weapon) on UN sanctioned hospitals and schools (a war crime). Within 23 days the death toll had reached 1,284 palestinians dead, 6 IDF by enemy fire and 3 IDF by friendly fire. When the operation had finished Israel had claimed more land from the Gaza strip in the name of secuirty zones for their protection.The following links detail some of the incidents that took place during 2009
