There is no 'war against gentiles'. On the contrary - Christians in Israel have the same freedoms AS Jews living there, something that can't be said of various other Middle Eastern nations, alas. Also to clarify: it is not true that 'thirteen israelis' alone have died in the clash with Hamas. Remember, Israel endured EIGHT YEARS of Hamas suicide bombings and missile attacks *before* responding at all. Every nation has the right to act in self defence, Israel included.
