The point about the natural gas field is interesting; it's something I didn't think about. Other than that, however, the report is full of inaccuracies.

Israel didn't bomb Gaza in response to the kidnapping--they arrested a bunch of Hamas members in response, instead. Hamas then started firing rockets into Israel, and Israel was forced to attack the rocket launch sites and manufacturing sites (which are in the middle of residential areas) in order to stop the rocket fire.

The fact that the language spoken on the 911 call was Hebrew doesn't mean anything--those who aren't clueless about the region would know that Israelis and local Arabs are more or less bilingual.

Every news article I've read did mention that no Israelis were killed. This guy is just trying to make it sound like no one is to be believed but him. Stopped watching at the 4 minute mark, because so much up to that point has been BS.

Here's a better article on the subject: http://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-28263042

It is without a doubt that what is happening in Gaza right now is absolutely tragic, but Hamas is ultimately responsible for throwing its own people under the bus for political gain.

EDIT: Unfortunately, an Israeli resident was killed by an attack from Gaza today.

Huh, good to know. Yeah I was wondering how stupid they must be to use 3 teen death as justification for bombing. What you said makes much more sense. I still like to watch his stuffs, just take it with some grain of salt I guess? He sometime raise good points.
