I think Israel is more than capable of responding to the attacks with more precision than it has and Netanyahu is using this situation, that he helped enable, to justify cleaning on the Gaza strip completely.
That's why they are using the "dumb bombs" and telling people to leave the area and then bombing the area they go to.
The citizens there, in the end, will have less freedom and Israel will rule them with an iron hand when all is said and done.
Again, just my opinion.
I think my issue is that Israel has killed far more innocent Palestinians, hell, more children alone, than Hamas has killed or kidnapped Israelis. At what point do we stop thinking of Israel as defending themselves and consider them to be the "bad guys" in this scenario? This is ignoring all of the other aspects of it that complicate the scenario, just the casualties alone show how indiscriminate Israel has been in this war.
