iam all for protecting israel and for israel protecting itself. also, i think that hamas rocket launching should stop, period. having said that, while most rockets are landing in desert areas and causing little damage, every once in a while a fatality, the israeli response is a little extreme. for every israeli killed, they have killed hundreds of civilians. they just bombed 2 UN schools today, killing 30 women and children. is this a just response? by the way, there is no military solution to this dilemma, only a political one, as we have seen for the last 60 years. as long as israel keeps the palestinians opressed and living under occupation, there will never be a solution.
