Israeli forces shelled the United Nations headquarters in the Gaza Strip on Thursday, setting fire to the compound filled with hundreds of refugees as U.N. chief Ban Ki-moon was in the region on a mission to end Israel's devastating offensive against the territory's Hamas rulers.

The Israelis use American weapons and tactics, thats why they have hit the UN HQ as well as killing palestinians not involved with Hamas. All they have managed to do with this entire action is provide a massive boost to extremist recruitment.

The fact that they are refusing foreign reporters access is a pretty clear indication that this is not the clean war they are claiming it to be even if we were gullible enough to fall for that line in the first place.
