Binyamin Netanyahu warns of  "prolonged war"

Overnight, the IDF targeted 70 locations within Gaza. Including the home of the elected Palestinian Prime Minister Ismail Haniyeh, the Strip's media offices for Al-Aqsa TV and radio, and fuel tanks located outside the only Gazan power plant, while Binyamin Netanyahu warned of "prolonged war".

Around 200.000 of Gaza's 1.8 milhion residents were already seeking shelter in UNRWA schools. 

Chilling footage of IDF destroying a whole neighbourhood in less than one hour. Which easily explains the number of deaths and injuries among the Palestinians.

Remembering the dead during Israeli offensive on Tuesday, July 29. 
Below, only Palestinian identified victims.

Inside Story: Is Israel fighting an unwinnable war?

35. “Deter them, scare them, wear them down psychologically”
Area: Gaza strip:
Why are militants’ houses bombed? 
A house belonging to a militant, who isn’t there at the time? Deterrence. Deter them, scare them, wear them down psychologically, et cetera.
How do you know this? 
From years of experience. It’s for claiming a toll.
Do you know what rank a militant needs to be so his house gets listed as a target? 
It depends on the stage of the fighting.
Based on what you know, when the target list gets depleted, does the rank level for whose houses will be targeted decrease? 
Absolutely.
In the debriefings, is there any reference to the number of militants’ houses and of munitions caches that were bombed? 
No, usually the way that gets summed up is, ‘such-and-such targets were hit,’ and sometimes they also say how many of those entailed ‘roof knockings’ – but those are astronomical numbers, really.
What do you mean? 
Say 100 targets were hit in the past 24 hours – that’s an unimaginably high number for a given day. And another level on which things are treated is that of readiness – when you discuss the Hamas militants’ morale and confidence, sometimes after militants’ houses are struck you say, “We know that in such-and-such [Hamas] brigade they are expressing concern over the continuation of the fighting,” it’s at that level. I mean, nobody’s saying “We’ll strike that target because it’s the house of a militant and it will lower his motivation” – but one does say the morale is low due to the fact that the strikes on the militants’ houses is having an impact and decreasing the Hamas militants’ morale.
36. "Suddenly Haniyeh's mansion goes up in the air, too”
Were there attacks on “symbols of government?”
Symbols of government, definitely. There’s always love directed at Haniyeh’s mansion, (Ismail Haniyeh, Hamas’ leader in the Gaza Strip) and at some point it got fired at. Such targets, by the way, are often kept for the later stages, as a psychological kind of thing. That is, they don't do it right at the start [of the operation], during the big wave. 
Often it’s isolated into some specific incident – say, a one-sided escalation, or they hit something, or they carried out some really big terror attack –and then suddenly Haniyeh’s mansion goes up in the air, too.

Gilberto Gil e Caetano Veloso comprovaram sua ignorância da realidade ao aceitarem visitar Shimon Peres durante sua estadia em Tel Aviv - sabe-se lá porquê este senhor venal goza no Brasil de uma reputação errônea de pacifista. Peres é um lobo em pele de carneiro que já causou e continua causando muito dano aos palestinos.

E nossos dois menestréis comprovaram sua ingenuidade e narcizismo ao justificarem que queriam construir uma ponte entre israelenses e palestinos... Surreal. Partirão sem entender que o problema não é o diálogo e sim terminar com a ocupação e a limpeza étnica da Palestina aplicando as leis internacionais. Que talvez os dois marionetes sionistas não saibam que existem, que incriminam as práticas criminosas de Israel, que este as espezinha e que a única maneira de fazer com que este país fora-da-lei as respeite é com o BOICOTE geral do país e de seus produtos, inclusive culturais e esportivos.

VERGONHA, Gil é Caetano! Shame on you!!  

Enquanto os dois menestréis nos envergonham, deputados portuguses honram seus compatriotas fazendo a coisa certa na Cisjordânia.
