It's called common sense. Like every other sovereign nation, Israel has the right and duty to defend its citizens from attack. Hamas' acts of terror have left Israel no choice but to take stronger measures to defend its citizens. Israel is taking steps to limit civilian casualties. Most of those killed to date have been Hamas terrorists. Israel's actions have specifically targeted Hamas command centers, security installations, rocket-launching sites, weapons stockpiles and weapons smuggling tunnels.
Please consider the following quotes: "If rockets were falling over the house where my daughters are sleeping, I would do everything I can to stop that." -Barack Obama.
"I can tell you that I believe that if rocket attacks came across the border of the United States of America, that the American people would probably demand pretty vigorous actions in response." -John McCain
He's right. Hitler was also democratically elected.

This is a great blog. Thank you for it. I hope the IDF remain safe and that Hamas is effectively dealt with so Israeli civilians stay safe.
