    OK, hold on.

    “Allah” is Arabic for “God.” “Yahweh” (or “Jahweh”) is Hebrew for “God.”

    No difference. None.

    There are some very raw nerves with very good reason.

    Hamas has released a statement calling for Middle Eastern peoples to rise up against Israel, and says Israel is worse than the Nazis.

    You know that Hamas is the reporter of these alleged war crimes, right? Pay attention before tossing out these allegations.
    for example.

    Israelis snuffed out a squad of Hamas soldiers trying to infiltrate a military base along the coast. Hamas guys popped out of a tunnel and the Israelis got the drop on them. Took them out, then blew up the tunnel and the weapons warehouse they were using in Gaza.

    "God" is English for "God." :)

    All of Gaza is a rabbit warren of tunnels and they provably have extensions into Israel proper. The ground under their feet is holeyer (as opposed to holier) than Swiss cheese.

    That sounds like a grand opportunity for a heavier-than-air enema. Maybe pumping a sleepy gas like ether and then rescuing the hostages whilst they slept would do the trick.

    I’m sure the Hamas version of that story will be an interesting bit of fiction.

    How dare they go to war on the territory run by a terrorist government that just attacked them and slaughtered or kidnapped as many civilians as they could get their hands on!

    A Close Look at Some Key Evidence in the Gaza Hospital Blast

    The video shows a projectile streaking through the darkened skies over Gaza and exploding in the air. Seconds later, another explosion is seen on the ground.

    The footage has become a widely cited piece of evidence as Israeli and American officials have made the case that an errant Palestinian rocket malfunctioned in the sky, fell to the ground and caused a deadly explosion at Al-Ahli Arab hospital in Gaza City.

    But a detailed visual analysis by The New York Times concludes that the video clip — taken from an Al Jazeera television camera livestreaming on the night of Oct. 17 — shows something else. The missile seen in the video is most likely not what caused the explosion at the hospital. It actually detonated in the sky roughly two miles away, The Times found, and is an unrelated aspect of the fighting that unfolded over the Israeli-Gaza border that night.
