Good one. Israel has no choice. They are surrounded by terrorists. They never start any of the fights,but they do finish them. Many of the terror types are so brainwashed they can not be reasoned with and we see the result.
Israel should have gone in full force and completely demolish Hamas critics be damned in the very beginning. I think to a certain extent they have fallen prey to the worldwide criticism of others. They should be thinking more along the lines of what we did in WWII to Dresden or Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Who gives a damn about world opinion? They are fighting for their own survival.
