Who is supplying Hamas with these missiles?
For those throwing our ally Israel under the bus and instead sympathizing with their enemies take a good look at the unsavory groups you so readily champion. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palesti...acks_on_Israel
Israel has spent a huge investment in bomb shelters while Hamas has installed missile launching facilities in residential areas.
Israel drops leaflets prior to instituting an attack to minimize casualties. Hamas makes no warnings in an attempt to maximize casualties.
Israel attempts to attack government buildings in off hours to minimize casualties. There is no similar reciprocity on the other side.
The fact is that no country would tolerate another country firing missiles onto its soil. Just think of the U.S. response if Canada launched missiles into Maine.
I believe that Israel has for decades used restraint but there is a limit to how much one will accept being punched without hitting back.
Let's try to be a bit more clear on the subject of the death of children and put some responsibility where it belongs. Don't get me wrong, I'm not defending or supporting either side, just being realistic.
Hamas is launching missiles in populated areas where there are schools, playgrounds/parks, mosques, apartments - surrounding themselves with innocent people - women and mostly children. Why don't they move to areas to launch their missiles where there are no civilians - in particular children - who become casualties of Israel's retaliation? Is Palestine under the belief that Israel cares where their bombs land once they pinpoint where a missile has been launched? Israel sees killing one Hamas terrorist worth the life of 50 innocent people. No different that the way US saw Iraqis, Afghanis and Pakistanis as collateral damage when they missed their target or sent a drone out and hit the wrong target, upon which the US paid those families a pittance to those families who lost loved ones for their blunder. Hamas surrounding themselves with innocent people has not deterred Israel, and won't deter Israel, but Hamas is still willing to sacrifice their own people - especially children - to the point of death.
They were for launching these make shift rockets into vacant land. That's why in 2012 not a single Israeli was killed before Israel attacked and has killed over 100 people including dozens of children.
You're like a Nazi in Poland that that murders the whole Warsaw ghetto community because a few fighters won't give up.
Name me a single other group of people who would be expected to sit tight and do nothing while a group of religous crazies launched missles at their cities.

Are you insane? Not a single Israeli was killed this year before Israel attacked. The IDF has killed over a hundred in the last few days.
They've been blockade for 5 years. The UN has documented hundred of cases where children have died from malnutrition and lack of medical technology.
What the hell would US citizens do if they were brutalized in this manner?

When you compare Jews who defend themselves with Hitler you're seriously deranged. Were more Israelis supposed to be killed? Would more dead Jews make you happy? Because it sure as hell would make Hamas happy! So congrats. You're siding with terrorists and telling Jews to drop dead.
