		<description>Here&#039;s my round up of coverage noted in the domestic coverage noted in the last 24 hours:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;Regev mispeaks on tv 3 times for Israeli &#039;PM&#039; while 7.30 fails to ask the blockade, occupation question&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;at &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.sydneyalternativemedia.com/blog/index.blog/1871935/regev-mispeaks-on-tv-3-times-&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;for-israeli-pm-while-730-fails-to-ask-the-blockade-occupation-question/&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Full marks to Steve Kinane of ABC RN early yesterday asking the critical question of &#039;will Israel lift the blockade [completely] if the tunnels and rockets stop? Because this evoked the admission from Regev that Israel maintained &quot;economic sanctions&quot; during the 6 month lull or truce, which Hamas quoted mid Dec 08 as a reason the truce was not extended. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Full marks to 7.30 compere for tackling Regev, as Olmert&#039;s man, on the weak explanations over shelling of UN school and mass carnage. What Regev might have trouble with re the IDF is admitting to himself that 30% of Israeli society apparently sympathise with the assassin of former PM Yihtzak Rabin in 1996 to the extent he should be pardoned. What proportion similarly in the IDF? 30%?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If so that segment in the IDF have little reason to NOT fire at the UN as well. Just as the IDF stalked that UN border post constantly shelled closer and closer during the 2006 Lebanon war.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yesterday Jewish writer Sara Dowse wrote in the SMH about failure of trust in Israel&#039;s real agenda. She&#039;s right to be cynical: http://www.smh.com.au/text/articles/2009/01/07/1231004100045.html</description>

		<description>Some interesting cites all round.  Points to Eleri, Jane, Tom and James, well done all.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It&#039;s clear that neither side considers the other to have any legitimate right to exist.  It&#039;s also clear that both the IDF and Hamas will emerge strengthened by this, while civil society is the loser.  &lt;br /&gt;</description>

		<description>Nice analysis Tom McLoughlin&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My view is that the Israeli Government are the modern equivalent of the German Nazis...there is no morality to their position...they are murderous thugs perpetrating a 41 year genocide using state of the art weaponary against a peasant army.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Most of my Jewish friends, including one Belsen survivor, see the current Israeli Government as morally repugnant.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I support Hamas&#039; right to wage war against a terrorist invader. I&#039;d say about 85% of Australians agree with me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Israel out of the West Bank &amp; Gaza....not one square centimetre should remain under its control...</description>
