3 As in most overseas conflicts, US political involvement and incessant meddling is NOT good.

6 It's called war. 4000+ years of human history. If you don't want civilian casualties, don't fight wars and accept slave status.

7 #2 We are fighting in Gaza to protect Gazan civilians from Hamas

Pity the Gazans are not as enthusiastic about the process as y'all are. It would save a lot of rubble-izing.

Speaking of concrete steps, I saw a photo of a soldier standing in a tunnel. The tunnel was built from a series of concrete arches that appeared to be either cast in place or pre-fab. A lot of building material that could have been used for something useful, like buildings.

8 My opinion: Israel joins NATO. if Turkey can be a member so can Israel.

9 If by more he means eliminate Hamas, he's totally right.

10 I thought the only civilians left in-theater are Israeli hostages, so, OK.

11 Hamas took the gloves off and so did Israel. The "civilian" population supports attacks on Israel for the most part so I see it as there are no real problems with flattening Gaza and pushing the entire rubble pile into the sea.

12 Actually, western elites misquote "laws of war", the responsibility for human shields deaths is on Hamas.
