sad propaganda through video games
i am Arabic i believe we should peacefully co exist
but ya the only reason my brothers are shooting at you is because you are taking their homes
i believe in the bible i know Israel was meant for the Jews but hey we both live their now you cant expect either of us to pack our bags and leave
religion an politics should be far far away from each other
also people fail to see Christianity is a sect of Judaism and Islam is a sect of Christianity
we all have similar beliefs so if its gonna be about religion why cant we all just get along :(

Also... what's the deal. Am I the only one a little depressed that this game makes it look like Israel's the only one getting attacked? I seriously doubt they're sitting there getting pounded by rockets while not doing anything in return. They are not blameless. Give us armies and make this a proper game.

I don't think this game is well made, sorry. BTW it's Gaza, not Gaze. Into the politics: Any nation who's army calls their opponents citizens 'animals' is wrong, no question. This makes Hamas AND the IDF wrong. Israel does not have claim to that land. The bible is a book and God cannot give you ANYTHING in the real world. Now, is Israel would return the land, or admit they stand as conquerors it would be different. If they would stop the apartheid I would have far less to say. They won't though, so they are WRONG.

I love seeing the policy debate played out with serious games. I think it shows how well games can be used to illustrate one side of a debate. While I think a game that showed both sides' perspectives would be ideal, it would be only a little easy than peace between those two sides.
Here's hoping for freedom and health for all people living in the Middle East, regardless of their grandparents' last names.

As a game, its not that bad, not great, but not that bad... and after reading through the 5 pages of comments, i realized something... people are idiots. Neither Israel or Hamas are right in this conflict, but its completely stupid to say that Israel is the (only) one in the wrong. They've tried to broker peace treaties, which end up amounting to the cessation of Israeli hostilities while Hamas continues attacking. Also, one thing to think about: if the people who say that they are against Israeli aggression are up in arms about the loss of life/civilian death toll, why didn't those same people speak up against the attacks against Israel?

@New2U2
Stop looking at games as simple diversions and toys and more as a form of journalism. Games aren't just used as a means of entertainment, but as a means of communication and understanding.
The flash game is replacing the political cartoon.

hell, there are good people from Israel and Gaza both, but in both countries the ones that are making the politics are bad

NVMme: When Israel occupied Gaza they broke international law, but they said they where going to pull out the soldiers straight away. That was 40 years ago. Israel controls everything that comes in and out of Gaza, and that's why 80% of those living in Gaza are in need of emergency aid from other countries. So don't try to say that Israel is defending them selfs.

I thought this was a pretty good game. You learn about the cities, you learn about how fast rocket attacks can happen. Not bad.

Putting the political crap aside, this game plain sucks. The most fun I had was letting the rockets blow the country away.

I don't really like message games. Especially when the message (in gameplay) is "This game is too hard, so you lose." Games designed to make you lose = bad

This is uninformed propaganda with no educative value and has no place on Kong. Hamas represents no greater evil than Israel and any suggestion otherwise is corrupt and deceptive.

"this is a political game that can help you to understand the Middle East conflict"
1.) This is not a political game
2.) This game couldn't possibly help anybody to understand the conflict in middle east
This is just a macabre distorting clicking game

The only fun thing about this game is watching the rockets hit Israel, that's enough for me to give it a 1/5 rating ;)
