You never saw a rocket fired, just some smoke. And the site was a few hundred yards from the hotel. Local police should be able to just detonate the site (which may have happened).

Check this one out, a French source. LINK I would ask you to take notice of the children playing on the launch site. Did they just magically appear on site after the site was used for military purposes, or were they around when the rockets were launched?

OMG man. Please tell me you are just trolling at this point.

You never saw any of the Palestinian casualties being killed, just some bodies. Yet you accept the stories being told as to how they were caused.
quote:Now that is a good one. Where are the local police? They are not on hand when casualties are being shown arriving at medical facilities. They must be out there searching for Hamas rockets in order to detonate them and prevent Hamas from launching them at Israel.

Link. I am guessing that Hamas was storing rockets or firing rockets from there....but I'll bite. send me your source...
Now, will you at least admit that Hamas is firing from civilian areas?

So what you got on the two clear examples in this thread of rockets being fired intentionally from high civilian areas? You dismiss this stuff or ignore it.
The logical man deduces that its failry evident that Hamas cares little for where they place, hide and fire their rockets. Many many first hand documented accounts just like the two in this thread. So instead of the possibility of rockets being fired in near or around the "UN shelter" (which is funny in itself as Hamas uses UN marked vehicles to ferry ordnance and personnel around, but i digress...) and Israel response like usual, maybe missing its intended location by 100 meters.
Its clear you have no experience in the Military. The US, the most technologically advanced Military in the world misses exatc targets all the time. Hell the danger close distance for a 155mm round is over 300meters.
Occam's razor.
It amazes me that some people actually buy into the pro hammas propaganda, I mean all in.
If Israel wanted Palestinians "dead" they would have done it long ago. If the wanted to completely gut any Palestinian will, they would have done it long ago.

The death toll thus far is 3 Israeli civilians, 64 Israeli soldiers and 1800 Palestinians. I can see why Israel needs to kill more since those rockets are so devastating.
Hamas should move towards more effective rockets... like these:

You guess wrong...

The Israeli military said it had targeted three wanted militants on a motorcycle in the vicinity and was "reviewing the consequences of this strike."

All of Gaza is a civilian area. It's not Hamas' fault that Gaza is the most densely populated real estate on the planet.

Innocent civilian = Gazan who openly allows terrorists to fire rockets from behind their children

Hammas put in power by the people.
No rockets and tunnels, no strikes.

Yes, 1.5 million people living in a cramped space of 25 miles by 5 miles, unable to leave by air, land or sea, in horrible poverty should accept their condition... in fact bend down, grabbed their ankles and say "Yes sir, may I have another".
Why do conservatives advocate freedom... will fight and die for freedom... but think these guys shouldn't fight back?

It is if you are shooting rockets from the middle of that population and then whining when civilians get killed as a direct result of your having shot rockets. Every single civilian Palestinian death rests at the feet of Hamas.

You would really think the Palestinians would accept defeat at some point.

If they are what I think they are...
...then they are notoriously inaccurate when fired from an improvised platform (even from a military platform).
The rockets can be easily set up on a rock or another firm surface and crudely aimed in the direction of its target, sometimes up to three miles away. Accuracy is mostly guesswork, which probably explains why there are comparatively few casualties despite them being a common occurrence.

Ah, so now you are moving the goal posts. Not surprising. You even got a "conservative" jab in there, which is funny.
