Israel closed all border crossings with the Gaza Strip on Friday, cutting off at least one aid shipment, and bombed the empty Interior Ministry building of the Palestinian Authority, which was already a ruin after a previous Israeli bombing.

"The Israeli military has operated in Gaza nearly every day this week, luring Hamas and allied gunmen into firefights; 35 Palestinians have been killed there since Monday and 80 people have been wounded, said Dr. Muawiya Hassanein, director of emergency medical services in Gaza."

This in response to;

"On Thursday, at least 40 rockets were launched, half of them landing in Israel, hitting two houses in Sderot and lightly wounding four Israelis, with a dozen more treated for shock."

neither is right in trying to kill each other, but this is the sword against the stick.

How I wish they would stop this shooting rocketts at each other and come to an agreement, for all the people's sake. For here we can see whats going on but, to really live it we don't know the fear they face each day, or if they will be alive by the end of the day. How horrifying would this be to live like this evry day? thank you Chrissy N. noted
