Israel has acted in an amazingly controled manner toward Hamas. Recently Israel has remove troops from Gaza with the hope of stopping the violence. As a reward, Hamas immediately stepped up their rocket attacks across the border into Israel. Hamas has made it clear throughout the years that creating a Palestinian state is not an option for peace in their minds. There will be no peace for Israel until all Jews and Israelis are killed.
I object to front page articles about Palestinian women and children being killed and injured. Hamas specifically hides behind their women and children so that Israel will look bad when they retaliate against Hamas.
Fewer Israelis are killed from Palestinian violence because Israel protects them by building bomb shelters. Hamas doesn't build bomb shelters because they get wonderful press and photos when their women and children are killed from Israeli bombs.
I agree that Israel must be supported completely and that a cease fire zone must be used to separate Hamas from Israel so that Israelis can once again feel safe.
