"Israel continued its military offensive in Gaza.
I'm deja-vuing all over again!
A Palestinian civilian, Marwan Abu Harbid, died when an Israeli tank shell hit his home, burying him inside, a relative told the Associated Press.
Later Saturday, two brothers, both members of Hamas, were killed in a helicopter strike, as was a 16-year-old Palestinian, according to Agence France-Press.
For three hours here on Saturday morning, Israeli troops suspended patrols in Beit Hanun, a town of some 25,000 people, to allow civilians to leave their homes amd open shops, and to let aid groups deliver supplies. Israeli troops have been rounding up young men suspected of being militants.
Also on Saturday, a 12-year-old-girl was shot in the head and killed by an Israeli sniper in Gaza, Palestinian officials said. The Israeli military expressed regret, saying the sniper aimed at an armed militant."
O.K., a TANK strike, a HELICOPTER strike, a SNIPER strike, and ROUND-UPS!!!!
Not holding anything back, are you Israel?
(Actually, we should be grateful they are holding back and not unleashing their 200-300 nukes on anybody)
