- Israel's attack on the Gaza Strip continues for a second day. Over 240 Palestinians have died in the response to Hamas's rocket attacks. While many had expected Israel to use military force during the US presidential transition, Iran, not Hamas, was the expected target. The attacks have been described as the harshest in decades.
- The Bush Administration has been unwavering in its support for Israel and continues to blame Hamas for the violence in the Gaza Strip.
- India is hailing the election returns from Kashmir and Jammu as good signs for democracy and Indian national unity. In the wake of the Mumbai attacks, the elections were held under high security.
