You know, because of the censorship and blatant bias in favor of the Zionist monsters, I think today will do it for purchasing AmeriKa's newspapers. I know I say that all the time; however, my friend is looking at his last Sunday sports section.
Fuck this. I'd rather work on my other blogs.

"Israel launches ground assault on Gaza; Military aims to capture rocket launching sites; Hamas vows land will be 'graveyard' for troops" by Isabel Kershner and Taghreed El-Khodary, New York Times | January 4, 2009
JERUSALEM - Israeli tanks and troops swept across the border into Gaza last night, opening a ground war against the militant group Hamas after a week of intense airstrikes.
Israeli officials said the goal was "to destroy the terrorist infrastructure of Hamas," the militant Islamic group that controls Gaza's government, and that the campaign would be difficult and could take "many long days."
The ground attack brings new risks and the prospect of significantly higher casualties on both sides in a confrontation that, even before this phase began, had taken the lives of more than 460 Palestinians and four Israelis.
Why? Why does the Zionist-controlled and -operated Jew York Times make it sound like the suffering and casualties are equal? We all know why -- which is why I stopped reading and purchasing their paper and never even visit their website anymore. What, I may have missed something that the Times had to say? Yeah, like I care what that lying shit rag has to say about anything.
Sharp explosions rang out across Gaza, and tank fire and airstrikes lit the darkened sky well into today as Israel continued to pound the coastal territory by land, air, and sea. In a statement, the Israeli military said a key objective was to "take control" of the rocket launching sites Hamas has used to fire at southern Israel.
The Hamas military wing said it was firing mortars at approaching Israeli troops. Hamas threatened suicide attacks against Israel and vowed that Gaza would become the Israeli Army's "graveyard."
The exact number of troops entering Gaza was not being publicized, but the military said the ground operation involved "large numbers" of forces including infantry, tanks, and engineering and artillery corps. Last night, the Israeli prime minister's office said that a call up of thousands of army reserve troops, approved earlier, had begun.
Palestinian hospitals reported three civilians killed by midnight and the Hamas-run Al Aqsa television reported that five Israeli soldiers had been killed.
Good.
An Israeli military spokesman said he had no information about casualties and suggested that the Hamas reports may have been concocted to lower Israeli morale.
Sort of like everything I find in my Zionist War Daily.
In several European cities tens of thousands of protesters demanded that Israel end its bombing campaign. Late yesterday, the United States blocked approval of a UN Security Council statement calling for an immediate cease-fire....
Translation: The U.S. APPROVES of Iz-ray-HELL's MASS-MURDERING SLAUGHTER!
While a ground campaign in densely populated Gaza is likely to increase the civilian death toll there, the Israeli Army also faces new threats.
Is this incredible "journalism" or what?
Yup, the POOR ISRAELI ARMY and the THREATS they face!
Yup, the PALESTINIANS apparently are under NO THREAT AT ALL!!
Once again, the JEW YORK TIMES is ALL ABOUT ISRAEL!!!

The New York Times: Israel's Mouthpiece
Hamas has had 18 months since Israel withdrew from the territory to smuggle in more weapons for use against tanks and troops. Its more sophisticated arsenal has been on display over the last weeks and, even after eight days of punishing airstrikes by Israel, the group has shown the ability to continue to fire scores of longer range rockets from Gaza into Israeli cities.
Do I even need say it?

Before Israel started the invasion, warplanes carried out dozens of strikes in Gaza yesterday, the eighth day of the offensive against Hamas....
Yup, it is ALL AGAINST Hamas -- not the PEOPLE of PALESTINE and GAZA -- according to the Zionist War Daily.
Yes, readers, not only am I sick of the s*** reporting, I am also tired of refuting them. Maybe the best thing would be to TOTALLY IGNORE and BOYCOTT the Zionist MSM from now on!! Getting on that bus a little late, am I?
Many of those attacks were on open areas around Beit Hanoun and the main route connecting the north and south of Gaza, most likely to clear those areas of mines and tunnels and to hamper movement before troops entered.
A mosque in northern Gaza was also hit yesterday, during evening prayer time, in what witnesses said was an Israeli air strike. At least 13 worshipers were killed and about 30 wounded, according to Palestinian hospital officials. The Israeli military had no immediate comment.
You know, it is really AMAZING at the JOB the Zionist AmeriKan MSM does COVERING UP ISRAEL'S MURDEROUS CRIMES, isn't it?

The U.S. Response to the Gaza Crisis: Unfair and Unbalanced
That last one describes the Jew York Times to a T!
The air force has struck several mosques in the past week, with the military saying they served as Hamas bases and weapons stores. Yesterday afternoon, Israeli artillery started shelling open areas in the northern Gaza Strip for the first time in the current campaign.
WTF?
And the Jew York Times dutifully moves to something else rather than explore Israel's mass-murdering aggression and war crimes; thank the Lord I never patron or purchase their material anymore!
Yesterday, a rocket hit an apartment building in the major port city of Ashdod, about 20 miles north of Gaza, lightly wounding two Israelis. Other rockets landed in the coastal city of Ashkelon and in the Negev Desert town of Netivot.
They are incredible, aren't they?
Yup, the POOR, POOR NaZionist filth of Israel is so besieged!
Well, fuck them!!
The latest round of rocket fire has demonstrated the extent to which Hamas has been able to upgrade its arsenal with weapons parts smuggled into Gaza since it seized control of the territory 18 months ago, according to American and Israeli officials.
Yeah, THANK GOD ISRAEL doesn't get WEAPONS UPGRADES from AmeriK.... oh, there is that Zionist-controlled AmeriKan MSM again!!!
So when does Hamas role out the fighter jets, WMD, tanks and helicopters, huh?
Compared with the rockets it had used in the past, the latest batch has been more accurate and flown farther - close to two dozen miles, enough to reach cities in southern Israel....
Yup, the POOR, POOR NaZionist filth and the "threat" they are under is ONCE AGAIN emphasized by the s*** Jew media -- while ISRAEL ATROCITIES are IGNORED, COVERED UP, or given one sentence before the Zionist AmeriKan MSM turns the focus back to the suffering Israelis!!
--more--"
And isn't this an interesting cut:"President-elect Barack Obama continued to defer publicly to the Bush administration after the ground campaign began. “The president-elect is closely monitoring global events, including the situation in Gaza,” said Brooke Anderson, his chief national security spokeswoman. “There is one president at a time, and we intend to respect that.”
Yeah, unless it comes to the economy or anything else, you Zionist tool!!
Yup, that's CHANGE all right, Amerika!!
Update:
"
GAZA — Israeli troops advanced into Gaza on Sunday under cover of heavy air, tank and artillery fire.... Witnesses said the Israeli forces had punched across Gaza, bisecting its northern and southern parts, and had taken over certain strategic areas....
In a telephone briefing for a group of foreign correspondents, a senior Israeli military official said that Israeli troops would hold the areas they have taken inside Gaza at least for the duration of the operation to prevent militants from returning to fire rockets from there.
“We don’t plan to retake the Gaza Strip but there are several places we control now and will control later,” he said. “If it will be needed, we are prepared to stay there.”
--more--"As we all suspected, this is another OCCUPATION! Israel ain't leaving because they are going to STEAL GAZA, too!
