Source Thejakartapost In an indication that it may be preparing a ground invasion in retaliation for the horrific attack by Hamas terrorists over the weekend, the Israeli military announced on Monday that it had summoned an unprecedented 300,000 reservists and was enforcing a complete embargo of the Gaza Strip. Following several hours of continuous Israeli aircraft bombardment, Gaza's Islamist organization, Hamas, declared it will execute one Israeli prisoner for each unexpected Israeli strike on a civilian home. Two days after they massacred hundreds of Israelis and took numerous captives in a raid that destroyed Israel's image as an unbeatable force, Palestinian fighters remained entrenched in a number of locations within Israel. According to Israeli TV stations, at least 2,600 people were injured in the Hamas attack, bringing the total number of fatalities to 900.
