@Zippo,
Are the black clad dead men in the photos those that were at the Hamas ceremony the first day of the air strikes? They were not innocent civilians if yes, in my opinion, since they are involved in the organization that continued firing the rockets, until Israel decided to strike back. I feel very sorry for the civilian and especially the children that were injured, or worse. I not only feel sorry for them for being victims of the air strikes, but for being part of a society that would carry on a war where these non-combatants lived.
By showing the Gaza dead and wounded in gruesome photos, and then showing the rockets that look like harmless toys (they are not), is there some point here? Perhaps, if Hamas enjoys firing rockets, they could fire them somewhere where there are no people? In that way, Israeli families will not have to be running to air raid shelters several times each day, as a siren warns of an incoming rocket. Personally, I would have no patience with any foreign entity that thinks harrassing Americans is just plain old good fun, or something like that. So, I understand Israel's retaliation after years of these rocket firings.
Well, apparently they did retaliate, and the dead are truly dead, and the wounded are truly wounded. There will likely be more dead in Gaza as this continues. It is sad that the Gaza civilians are governed by some people that would let them die for their cause.
Perhaps, that is not on what people are focussing. What is the emotion when a rocket is fired, and what is the emotion when an airstrike retaliates. Is it that the Hamas government has a great ability to hate, beyond what many people can understand? Or, is there a delusion that they are doing God's work? Or, is this just avaricious desire for the land that the Jews now inhabit?
