GAZA

We have seen an unprecedented but expected propaganda attack against Israel in recent days going over to pure anti-semitic hatred every once in a while. Israel is being condemned for protecting her citizens against continuous rocket strikes and provocations by Hamas, and as usual being charged for "crimes" she has not committed. As the one-sided propaganda against Israel is being waged on all fronts, including on this website, it is important not to forget that there is another side to all this that is being deliberately ignored, silenced and covered up by the sheer amount of one sided attacks. Here are some videos and articles that tell Israel's side of the story, for those who seek the truth over propaganda, and fairness and rationality over hatred and bias, so that they can see both sides of the conflict and make their own minds based on reality.

Israel is engaged in limited precision strike counter attacks to protect her citizens, as any other responsible state is expected to do in face of months of assault by its enemies on her territory. There is a common trend meant to down play Hamas constant attacks on Israeli civilian and residential population. Reality on the ground for Israeli families that have to live under constant attack is quite different:

Despite common claims, Israel is not bombing Gaza's residential areas indiscriminately. The targets are terrorist head quarters, missile launchers and smuggling tunnels. Most are deliberately hidden in among residential areas by Hamas to increase civilian casualty. Israel does its best to avoid civilian death by precision strikes:
