18. Poor little helpless babies...

They started a war in brutal fashion with a much-stronger opponent and still refuse to surrender and return the hostages, and now want sympathy for incurring casualties in an urban war. They won't get it from me. If Palestinians in Gaza want this to end, they should turn in their Hamas brothers/sons/husbands, take to the streets, and force a surrender. Israel is right to not stop until Hamas is destroyed.
