Israel Rocket to Palestine Car

Jabari military chief was killed in a car by Israel rocket striking in Hamas, Gaza City. In result tons of civilians were taken to the hospital being critically injured. Israel now only has two things to focus on protect its civilians and target the terror of what and who has done this.

Question:
Who is to blame in your opinion?

Gaza gives birth…… to war

On Thursday Israel got an unexpected attach form Gaza killing three people. The ultimate question being why did Israel launch numerous airstrikes across Gaza?  So far Fifteen Palestinians killed 100 injured. This unexpected attack sending fear anxiety and tension among all. Early Thursday the funeral was held for Ahmed Jabari who was killed Wednesday.

Gangs In Society

According to Business Insider.com, there are more than 1.4 million people who wear the colors of more than 33,000 gangs across the country. the FBI says that gangs are only becoming more dangerous as time goes on. Some gangs have even begun sourcing weapons from the military.

On Marinij.com, there is an article disscussing a gang shooting. One man was shot in the back and taken too a hospital, the others fled before the police arrived. I think it is very sad how some people have to live like this, being afraid for their lives all the time. Gang violence is definantly something that needs to bge stopped.

BOMBS AWAY! (#Blogger)

On November 10, 2012 The Hamas Government was fired upon by Gaza Killing three civilians, which targeted General Ahmed Al-Jaabari one of the highest leaders in the Hamas government killing him, as Hamas leadership states "They opened the gates of hell."

Plagerized

Israel-Palestinian conflict

Both sides of the conflict have acted poorly. Palestine officials had numerous chances to name what they would prefer in a deal, and they refused to name their offer. Israel has reacted far to harshly to the attacks, and should of sought peaceful resolution in other forms. Israel could have opened new negotiations with Palestine instead of blaming the conflict on a single leader of an organisation. Palestine casualties are at most 4 times what the Israelis have suffered, and much of Israels losses would not have happened if they had not aggravated the conflict with further violence. Until both sides can agree to quit acting the way they are, we can expect this conflict to continue for many years.

Gaza and Israel, just stop!

Gaza and Israel are fighting and for very childish reasons. The facts are not all to clear unfortunately, so no one knows if this is a real fight or just pity squandering over petty territory. To me this whole conflict is dumb but it seems the U.S. is either trying to stay out of this conflict or is deciding which side to help. Either way the U.S. goes, the Gaza strip is in serious need of our help, Israel can and probably will level the Gaza strip for little to no reason.

Israel-Palestine Conflict (Episode 183)

Once again. . . Again, the conflict between Israel and Palestine escalates.  As usual, Israel has decided that for every rock that is thrown at Israel, 2 missiles are returned back at Gaza.  Israel likes to think that they're always the victim, but they certainly do not help the situation at all and have done their fair share of violence and destruction.

While I condemn the actions of Hamas and any terrorist group, I can understand why the Palestinians do not care for Israel.  After all, Israel was once Palestine before the land was taken from them.  Whenever radical Palestinians decide to kill innocent Israeli citizens, Israel decides that they should also kill innocent Palestinian civilians.  Because Palestine is not its own state, Israel knows they can get away with this stuff, as well as the fact that America has a habit of blindly defending Israel no matter what they do.  What's also disturbing is that this military action by Israel could be for the upcoming election. 

In my opinion, the best way to solve this conflict is to make Palestine it's own state, and give them back a reasonable part of their land.  Until that happens, I find it hard to believe that Israel is the victim in this situation, especially since they kill many more Palestinians than Palestinians kill Israelis. 

Exaggeration in Israel.

A number of injured civilians were seen being taken to hospital in Gaza City. the Israeli military said 17 rockets fired from Gaza had been successfully intercepted by Israel's "Iron Dome" missile defence system on Wednesday, but one had got through and hit a "southern Israeli city". Israel say's they will do everything to protect their citizens. President Mahmoud Abbas, wants to put an immediate end to the aggression.

What do you think about all of this? Who would you side with more?

Isreal is the bomb

Palestine is a terrible place. I promise that I'm not being biased. I believe that Israel is being completely professional. If I was Israel I would bomb the crap out of them, but that's just me. I feel that Palestine needs to own up to there actions. This feud has been going on for far to long. if something isn't done about it soon then there will be dire consequences.

They Brought Rockets to a Missle Fight

There have been three people killed, and four wounded in Israel so far. Palestine has had 15 deaths and 120 wounded. Gaza has fired at least 274 missiles into Israel since Wednesday, when "Operation Pillar of Defense" began. There have been over 140 strikes on Gaza so far, Isreal has aimed for over 250 "terrorist sites".

Isreal attacks!

On Wednesday November 10,2012 Israel launched a series of bombs on the Gaza strip killing the chief of Hama's military wing and 8 other people. There were at least 70 strikes by warplanes and ships, officials from Palestinian militant groups said. As night fell, more air strikes could be heard, and Hamas security officials said four more attacks hit empty swaths of farmland in Gaza late. The IDF said at least 128 rockets had been fired from Gaza since Saturday.

A crater is left at a spot targeted by an Israeli airstrike in Gaza City early Thursday, November 15. Rockets and shells crisscrossed the skies over southern Israel and Gaza on Thursday as Palestinian militants continued rocket attacks on Israeli civilians and Israel pounded what it called terror sites.
 The Israeli military launches a missile Thursday from the southern city of Beersheba.

Israel Not Overreacting

In the country of Israel, there has been a lot of fighting lately. Palestine was the first to attack Israel, although Israel's retaliation was much more intense. I think some people are trying to make Palestine look like the victim, but I am siding with Israel. I think that Israel was right to defend themselves. The reason that they may have responded so much stronger is to try and show Palestine that they do not have a chance. Overall, I do not think Israel overreacted in this situation.

Gangs Affecting Society

Gangs are everywhere. Their violence affects everyone, for people in neighborhoods, to communities, and businesses all around the world. The general public is facing the critical social economic issue of gang violence. In the world there are now over 1.4 million different gangs with more than 250,000 members. Gang violence has consequences. Some of the consequences of gang violence are medical, personal, and financial. Americans are estimated to pay the cost of 655 billion dollars each year do the Gang violence. Businesses and communities have at least 100 million dollars each year stolen form them by Gangs. A solution to solving Gang violence is to educate people about prevention to gang violence.

Gangster Territory

Six people shot in a result of California gangs by "claiming territory." Officials say that graffiti was painted disrespecting certain gangs from the East and West side. Six people resulted dead by local gang members just 'fighting for a piece of street.'

This is a incident resulting in six people getting shot because a few people graffitied making fun and disrespecting something that is frequently not their business to be apart unless you are part of the gang. This reminds me of what Mr. Thissell is talking about in class about mimicking gangs and not taking them seriously. This is the teacher's speech in action. 

Question:
What are your says in such an incident?

Gagnam Style shootout; Sal Paulo Truce is Over

In Bangkok in mid September, a couple kids from rival teenage gangs fired at least 50 shots, after a dance-off to the song "Gangnam Style". A member from each gang comfronted eachother with the moves mimicing PSY, a Korean performer who sang and danced to the hit song "Gangnam Style". The kids got really drunk, after a night of partying and drinking, and the dance-off got taken way to seriously as the two groups of kids fired on eachother. There were many vehicles damaged, but no people were harmed.

In Sao Paulo a six year truce between rival gangs has been ended. A local shopkeeper Vanuza Alves da Silva says has seen a surge in killings in her slum neighborhood. Seven people were killed in a single night last week, including a police officer and a 13 year old boy. Sao Paulo is set to host the World Cup opening match in 2014. There have been around 150 homicides, and 94 police killed in Sao Paulo just this year.

Gangs In our world (#bloggergang)

Gangs in our world today have grown majorly in recent years. they have always been around big cities like in America the top five cities with gang violence and growth are  Long Beach, Los Angeles, Newark, Oakland and Oklahoma City. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention have resulted that a mass amount of gang violence and homicide come from higher and up gangs from these cities and trickle down to cities all around the country and even the world.

Prevention on gang violence is an on going battle and war between gang's them self and the goverment enforecers. many people have been killed or ingured and the amount of those people grow each year. many officers dedicate there lives to stop the violence but with the mass growth over recent years we all wonder if it will come to an end soon or has the violence just begun?

Gang Prevention By the DOJ

I read this from http://theskanner.com/article/DOJ-Grant-of-600000-Will-Fund-Eleven45-and-a-Street-Crime-Prosecutor-2012-09-28. it is about how the DOJ is donating $45,000 a year to Eleven:45 and how they set up in a park that was a hotspot for kids violence and they are slowly turning it around. i suggest you go read the articles for more.


Gangs affect on society

Gangs have a big affect on society. They affect public saftey, and community image. In 2010 there was an estimated 29,400 gangs and 756,000 gang members throughout 3,500 jurisdictions across the United States. Gang-related homicides increased more than 10 percent from 2009 in cities with populations of more than 100,000. Highly populated areas accounted for the vast majority of gang-related homicides nationally. Gang members were less likely to migrate to smaller areas and had most likely migrated for social, not illegitimate, reasons.

What is one way we could get the streets clean of gangs?

Gang Awareness

You see it everyday, gang members causing mischief in towns and city. But it seems like people don't really know the severity of it. These guys just walk into a jewlery store and steal thousands or dollars worth of jewlery

Police: Teen injured in gang-related attack

MADISON, Wis. -
A Madison teenager told police he was punched and kicked by about five men during an attack Tuesday night.
Police said they were called by the 15-year-old’s mother at 7:10 p.m. to report the incident, which occurred at the Madison Metro West Transfer Point on Tokay Boulevard.
The teen told police the attackers used hooded sweatshirts to conceal their faces and drove off in a black SUV.
Police said they believe the attack is gang-related.
The teenager was not seriously injured.

Gang's and Prevention.

Gangs of all levels and types usually have a negative effect on society. Higher-level gangs that are investigated by the FBI sometimes force the agency to utilize very risky and very expensive resources like high-tech surveillance, and witness protection programs. Gangs also can bring down the property value of neighborhoods from the violence and vandalism involved with gang life. They can also force prices to go up, in exchange to think it's 'protection'.
           Prevention: Teenage gang prevention often involves early intervention by special at-risk programs that offer mentorship and activities to do after school. If they keep themselves busy with activities and thing's to do after school, it's better then involving themselves in a gang and taking a risk to get killed. For older gangs that are more organized or commit more violent crimes, prevention usually involves getting the community to protect itself. They also need to not create enviorments where it would make gangs easy for them to take things.

What do you think about all of this? Do you think were doing a good job preventing it?

Brooklyn Gangsters get caught


 In Brooklyn, the members of an outlaw motorcycle gang, the Forbidden Ones, secured themselves with assault rifles, pistols and even grenades to protect themselves from intruders, the authorities said. But their first — and most imposing — line of defense was a cannon, at the ready with .50-caliber rounds, aimed at the door should anyone dare to infiltrate their ranks. But what the men did not know was that despite their fortifications, one of their own had turned on them. Their very own “enforcer,” responsible for ensuring that they were all well armed with guns and explosives, was a confidential informer working with New York police officers and federal agents to uncover the sale of a huge cache of weapons. In predawn raids on Tuesday, law enforcement officials arrested seven members of the Forbidden Ones and two other Brooklyn-based motorcycle gangs, the Dirty Ones and the Troublemakers, and charged them with trafficking high-caliber weapons. The men arrested had nicknames like Spider and Afro, and some literally wore their accomplishments on their sleeves. The “1% patch” they wore declared that they had rejected society and lived outside the law. And the “bangout patch,” showing two handguns crossing each other, signified that the member had assaulted or had another confrontation with the police.

One way we could prevent these kind of things from happening is having undercover cops in gang member groups like in this article. What are some ideas that you think that would prevent this kind of stuff from happening?
