I like the thought (being an old artilleryman); but the problem is they fire the suckers and beat feet - they’re not there when the HE arrives. Israel should turn Gaza into a parking lot on the beach.

I agree that a lot of the rats would shoot and scoot, but if the Israelis were firm about responding to every launch, the shooters would soon find few places to shoot from.

Loyalty to the cause be damned, I don’t think the people living in that neighborhood are going to be thrilled with the Jihadis setting up a rocket launcher on their roof if they know — not think but KNOW — their homes would be turned to rubble two minutes (or less) after that rocket lifts.
