I must reluctantly agree. Every response must be proportional to the threat. It is a mistake to over-respond. It is equally a mistake to under-respond.
Israel must respond in like manner. Hamas attacked Israel in a most brutal and pitiless way. Let Israel respond in kind. A week from now there should not be a single Hamas member left standing.
War is the remedy that our enemies have chosen, and I say let us give them all they want.
