Audio: President Obama set limit of 1,000 dead Gazans
http://youtu.be/TydMuBQPSOM

"A senior source in the American Administration says that if the number of
dead among the Palestinians in Gaza reaches 1,000 President Obama will
demand that Israel immediately ceases fire- in a conversation with our
correspondent Oren Nahari." Israel Radio News bulletin 14:00 19 July 2014

Dr. Aaron Lerner - IMRA:

The good news: we are far from this figure so far.

The bad news: this arbitrary figure is another illustration that when the
Obama Administration says "it has Israel's back" that the thing in their
hand may turn out to be a knife. The issue is not how many human shields
Hamas sacrifices in the Gaza Strip. The issue is addressing the festering
cancerous security challenge. Stopping this operation with the tunnels
intact, for example, means leaving open Israel's population to the threat of
huge bloody terror attacks at any moment.
