(6,241 posts)throwing rocks that were causing damage, killing your pets, you wouldn't just deal with it. You would be livid and send the cops. And even if you didn't, others wouldn't just deal with it. Nor should they. Someone's rights end where your property begins.
Hamas knows their rocket attacks will bring retaliation. They are cowards that pick on the big kid and run behind the teacher for protection.
You want to save that medical equipment, tell Hamas to stop hiding behind it. They are fighting a war they can't possibly win. But their problems are their own fault. I don't poke a bear with a stick. I don't walk up to the biggest guy in the street and say racist/homophobic insults at him because I know what the result will be. Because I know both responses would be disproportionate and I would probably die. But it would be my fault. The walls were put there to protect the Israelis from the suicide bombers. The blockade is there to stop the Pals from bringing in weapons.
If they were better neighbors, they would work WITH the Israelis instead of against them. And things would be better for everyone.
