They poured gasoline on a fire and thought it would work because it's liquid.

This shit isn't news, and I'm kinda tired pretending Israel is this stumbling child who is experiencing everything for the first time. Purposefully bombing civilians and pretending it was either an accident, acceptable casualty, or that the families with children were hiding WOMD; sometimes all 3 in the same sentence.

This isn't Israel's first time dealing with insurgents, it isn't their first time firing weapons, or dealing with Palestine in general. They are not idiots, they know what they're doing and are using our ignorance/lack of knowledge on the subject matter to paint their own pictures of events.

Sorry for the rant, these articles are making my blood boil.

That's kind of the point, isn't it? If you want to kill every palastinian but only say you want to wipe out hamas, then isn't it best for your plan if every palastinian joins hamas?

We already have a demonstration of how well a 20 year occupation stamps out radical organizations. All Israel needs to do is what they're currently doing and eventually there simply won't be any Palestinians left.
