Precision strikes with small payload munitions that do not cause great collateral damage means you are fighting the war on your enemies terms and rules. This is stupidity and military suicide.

I would suggest precision strikes on launch points in Gaza but with 500 lbs bombs. These are simply the old 500 pound iron bombs with a GPS guidance system added to it. Let it be publicly know to all in Gaza to stay the hell away at least 500 meters from any launch point.

Sherman burned Atlanta and left a path of destruction through the South, he was not an evil man. He did not do this to punish The South. He did it to break the will of the South to resist, IT WORKED.

Since the Vietnam War, we have let politicians dictate the way we fight wars. Sorry, but most politicians aren't bright enough to blow their noses, let alone run a war. Let the generals run the war, and let them run it to win. If Israel turns Gaza into a glass parking lot, it's not like Hamas wasn't asking for it. No one holds terrorists accountable, which does little else but embolden them. I hope Israel pounds Gaza into dust. And if it does, the only explanation it needs for the world community is: “We warned you.”

Remember when we tested MOAB during the second Iraq war? It is the largest conventional weapon in the world.

Israel should build a bunch of them themselves. Then they could warn Hamas if you launch any more rockets “You will pay BIG TIME”! When Hamas launches rockets at Israel which they would do drop one of thoes suckers at the spot where the rockets were launched.

Then warn them "We have a whole warehouse full of them and we will keep dropping them on you till you stop rocketing us or Gaza is nothing but rubble and desert"!
