Israel-Gaza conflict Day 7, and no cease-fire in sight
Total lack of progress being made on this conflict!

Behind scenes look at Gaza ceasefire
Most likely this is a temporary truce at best, but hopefully it will last for at least a few weeks!

Social media's role in war
Funny line about the missile in David Patreaus' pants. Also some good ideas about appointing Bill Clinton as a middle east peace ambassador near the end of the video.

Hamas chief held peace deal draft as IDF strike smashed his car - reports
Israel is the biggest obstacle to peace in the Middle East! The USA should put pressure on Israel to work towards peace!

'Good timing for Israel 'monopoly of force' in Gaza'
It's the same old story, over and over again, disproportionate use of force. I'm completely in favor of the USA dropping all aid to Israel. There is no way of justifying the actions of Israel!

Israeli air strikes in Gaza intensifty
It looks like Israel is determined to start WWIII! Not sure if they're attempting to fulfill Biblical or Mayan prophecy, but they are doing their best to make a bad situation much worse!

Airstrikes target Gaza media center
It's a little strange that Anderson Cooper is reporting just blocks from a missile target. Apparently CNN feels pretty confident that they know where the missiles are going to land!

No escape for Gaza civilians
Gaza is a place I wouldn't want to even visit under even the best of circumstances. To be stuck there under current circumstances would be unbearable!

I did not know that this whole conflict is because of a blockade Israel imposed on Gaza
