Israel Declares Palestinian Government "Terrorist" While Shelling Gaza

"Terrorists" are being bombed and those blamed for the taking of a hostage are captured. In response to the capture of Gilad shield, an Israeli soldier, by Palestinian militants, Israel has reoccupied the Gaza Strip and bombed electricity plants and bridges. The IDF also arrested 60 Hamas members who were also politicians in the plagued but democratically elected Palestinian government. At least one of the arrests occurred in the West Bank, as military operations are apparently taking place there, as well.
