Funny how the Islamoterrorists use the same tactics against Israel that the DemocRATS use against Americans. I wonder who learned from who. I guess you can get away with this crap when everyone in the “media” has been programed by America-hating Marxist professors and the majority of the population is dumber than a box of rocks who believe anything they see on TV.

Why can’t those Jews just leave these Palestinians alone?

...was this response proportional?

No, and why should it be? Israel wants to destroy Hamas' capability to launch rockets and a "proportional attack" would fall far short of that. It also wants the attack to serve as a deterrent to future Hamas aggression. With those legitimate goals in mind, the response is eminently appropriate.

Tuff noogies. That’s what you get when YOU start bombing innocent people, including CHILDREN in Israel. What goes around comes around. Where were your protests for the Jewish children injured and killed?

The world must be confused. No deaths in Israel and more than 100 in Gaza. Some reports said hundreds of rockets were fired at Israel from Gaza, others said thousands.

But with no deaths in Israel, was this response proportional?

Because the Israeli government shields its people with Iron Dome, while the Palestinian terrorists use the people to shield themselves.

Looking at the headline, there’s little chance it’s anyone but 2ndDivisionVet’s post.

Proportionality became mathematically undefined when Gaza launched its missiles.

Israel should carpet-bomb Gaza with neutron bombs, wait a few months for the stench and residual radioactivity to dissipate, and then occupy the territory!

Dear Saleh1966,

Your complaint is based on proportionality.

But it is a false complaint because Hamas, your elected government, is certainly trying to inflict as many casualties on Israel as it can. It is only the “Iron Dome” defensive measures that are mitigating the casualties by letting Israel know which missiles will fall harmlessly and which ones need to be intercepted.

There isn't a single critical word in your commentary about Hamas’ disproportionate response to the revenge killing of the Palestinian youth (a horrific crime) or the murders of three Israeli teenagers which provoked it (an equally horrific crime).

And we know why you didn't mention Hamas. In Gaza, to criticize Hamas is to invite death to your door. So, in your intimidated, cowardly way, you displace from what ought to be the legitimate institution of blame, Hamas, and instead blame Israel, as if it just got up one morning and decided, for no particular reason, to start blowing up Gaza.

No. You don't get to have it both ways. Your government doesn't get to fire hundreds, perhaps thousands, of rockets into a sovereign country and have these attacks ignored simply because Israel has an effective defense system to protect its citizens. You have not right to demand that Israel not make a vigorous response in reply. Yet even when it does strike back, Israeli attempts to warn Gaza civilians in order to reduce casualties. Hamas tells its citizens ro ignore the warnings. Israel says the strikes and incursions will stop when the rocket attacks stop. Hamas fires more rockets.

No, it is your government that, by its actions, is responsible for those children's injuries and deaths. At least have the moral courage to place the blame where it really lies, Hamas.

The unruly Palis should be thankful for the self-restraint of the Israelis. If the shoe were on the other foot, the total destruction of Israel would be the result.

They need to help the Isaerli’s put an end to Hamas and this will stop being an issue.

Doctors and health care givers here in the US understand...they, too are attempting to perform their job with their hands tied. How’s that working out for you. Our men/women deserve their own angel and medal. The do what they can the best they can and continue to proceed from there. Chances are many are assisting with little or no pay considering what our Banana Republic is taking from all persons here in America. Though not fond of the medical profession in general....find them to be dedicated, admired individuals and thank God for them.
