Your article is a further support of this reality, the death of a dozen israelities should equal the death of hundreds or thousands of palestinians. It's not our fault, they are in the way, an almost complete devaluation of human life. A population that has no where to go, and couldn't flee to Israel if they wanted to; which is a violation of Joshua which espouses the requirement of people being able to flee.

This conflict will persist ad infintum until one side decides to show the glow of divinity instead of doing what they feel is justified or right.

When one destroys a single individual, it is as if that person destroyed the whole world (Sanhedrin 4:5).

This matter cannot be resolved by force of arms. Not now, not ever.

All that can be expected from this latest episode is some unspecified delay in the resumption of hostilities and an even further ratcheting up of antagonism and hatred on all sides.

OK. Rockets, in their many thousands, landing in Israeli territory is not good.
OK. Warplanes bombing Hamas command centres and personel, destroying structures associated with their supply and communication lines is not good either.
And teasing out the relative merits and demerits of whichever mode of warfare seems least objectionable is irrelevent when viewing the larger picture.

It's as if two prizefigthers, locked together inside a room, are battling it out to determine who will still be standing at the end of the fight. And they can never retire from the contest nor escape the confines of their prison unless someone comes along with a key that unlocks the door. But, although many have tried, no one has been able to find this key in well over six decades.
There are those who now consider it lost forever.

But, somehow and at some point, that door has got to be opened.

Even if it takes a battering ram to do it.

the high IDF command are pushing for a ground operation but the dithering prime minister Netanyahu and his retreat prone defense minister Barak prefer to wait…
A generator was hit near the residence of Hamas Prime Minister Ismail Haniyeh.

They see that Israel is too fearful of the worthless opinion's and constraints of their false allies, the EU, UN, US to truly end Hamas' reign of terror.
Thye also see how Israel is AFRAID to cut off the flow of supplies into Gaza that keeps them strong and an ever serious growing threat to all of Israel.
If Israel had real leadership, electricity would have been cut off long ago AND STAYED OFF when the first missiles hit Sderot A DECADE AGO.
The enemy knows they are dealing with waffle leaders who always waffle and have been neutered into wars of restraint by the fakepeace pimps where defeating the enemy like Hamas is a thing of the past.
