When is this Israel-Gaza conflict going to stop? It is the same war that has been going on for decades. This time the Palestinians are using rockets instead of suicide bombers. They have no choice when they are walled into Gaza like a modern day ghetto. The rockets certainly don't accomplish anything. Except maybe making them feel good about standing up to Israel. And Israel is not accomplishing anything but fueling more hatred, violence and further justifying the US foreign aid they receive to purchase weapons. We need to stop funding the Israeli military. It's the only way this conflict will end. Let them throw rocks at each other until they are worn out. Instead Israel uses four casualties to justify invading, bombing schools and hospitals, killing hundreds of civilians (including 30 children in one school) and cutting off access to aid organizations. They have even shot a UN truck, forcing the UN to halt food shipments. The Israeli government and its supporters need to look back at the history of the country. Think about the holocaust survivors who fled to this land and the people who originally envisioned the state of Israel. Is this any different than the way they were treated before they left Europe?
