#HamasBumperStickers – Israel and Hamas supporters duel on Twitter
THE latest fighting between Hamas and Israel is media friendly. We get the made-for-media views and the made-for-TV miracles. On Twitter, the campaign is voracious. Armageddon will be tweeted:
Zorah Mohammed@Zorah_AJM - Hate the Israeli bastards. Need to wipe them all out
@Maxamed023 Fuck israel dirty jews #freepalestine—
Hurricane Irene@Yazibelle - It’s weird how almost every Arab’s problem would disappear if someone just nuked the fuck out of Israel.
Not everyone is in favour of genocide. Some just wonder if tweets serve any real purpose:
RB@RBPundit This is a first right? The IDF and Hamas tweeting at each other during an active conflict? Surreal.
Brandon Stewart@brandon_stewart @CuffyMeh @AlexaShrugged @RBPundit if only the fights could stay on twitter.
The two sides went to war:
@IDFSpokesperson14 Nov 12 We recommend that no Hamas operatives, whether low level or senior leaders, show their faces above ground in the days ahead.
Alqassam Brigades@AlqassamBrigade @IDFSpokesperson Our blessed hands will reach your leaders and soldiers wherever they are (You Opened Hell Gates on Yourselves)
He sums it up well:
Alex Bowles@alexqgb - Twitter, once used to report on war, is now used to declare it. #IDF #Hamasbit.ly/Qe2xVQ (via @michaelbd)
Then humour took over:
J.P. Freire@JPFreire RT @lachlan: This IDF/Hamas twitter spat makes me wonder what Churchill/Hitler trolling would’ve looked like.
Things moved on. The hashtag #HamasBumperStickers began trending:
This is an IDF spokesman @CaptainBarakRaz#HamasBumperStickers I fired ten rockets and all I got was this lousybumper sticker
Kurt Schlichter@KurtSchlichter #HamasBumperStickers My Other Car Is Also A Smoking Heap Of Burning Rubble #caring

“If we do go into the Gaza strip” – leader of the pack?
November 17th, 2012 at 2:34 pm
the terrorist scumbag Khalil al-Jabari was killed not assasinated, by comparison , Rabin, Lincoln & JFK were Assasinated ie. were illegaly killed by Civilans with a grudge/cause & Not killed as the result of a Legal Military action in time of conflict as al-Jabari was , authorised by a legal Govt. & carried out by a Military unit as an act of National Self Defense, the right of Self Defense being a recognised right of Sovereign states under the U.N. Charter. Yesterday on Israel TV it was announced that the Govt. has authorised the call up of 75,000 reservists in preparation for a ground offensive against the terrorist groups in the Gaza strip, all of whom are commiting War Crimes by the indiscriminate firing of missiles on Civilian targets. Israel targets its attacks on the rocket firing teams, ammo dumps, terrorist leaders & other legitimate targets of war, unfortunately the terrorists are commiting an additional War Crime of using their own civilian population as Human Shields thus arab civilians are regretably killed or injured in the crossfire. If we do go into the Gaza strip ( unlikely before Saturday night – 17/11/12 ) it could become a very bloody conflict since the terror groups are well armed with heavy weapons & the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt my decide to launch a war against Israel to help Hamas , their offshoot. That IMO is the reason for the call up of 75,000 troops – just in case Egypt attacks, we don’t want another Yom Kippur War situation ( I fought the Egyptians in the 1973 war ) of a suprise attack by a massive Egyptian army whilst we had only a few thousand troops on the borders & although the Syrian army is engaged in a civil war, Irans proxy Hezbollah may decide to unleash another 4,000 rockets on northern Israel as they did in 2006
