    If 12,000 rockets fired means they are attacking indiscriminately, what would you say about the many more thousands of bombs that the IDF has dropped over the entire area of Gaza? Why are IDF engineers rigging residential buildings with bombs and destroying them after clearing them out? What is the purpose of their missile strikes on refugee convoys and ambulances?

      I mean I’d say that also counts as attacking indiscriminately. The idea behind the term “indiscriminately” means that you don’t care who is on the other side, so it can apply in both of these situations.

      I’m actually kind of skeptical of that number. Gaza isn’t big enough to drop 16,000 bombs on.

      Why are IDF engineers

      They want a DMZ between Gaza and Israel. (and let’s see how long before Israeli settlers move in.)

      What is the purpose of their missile strikes on refugee convoys and ambulances?

      Hamas wins when Israelis die. Hamas wins when Palestinians die. Ambulances and hospitals are the best places for Hamas to hide.

      We should all know WHY Israel is doing what they’re doing. Hell, we know why Hamas is doing what they’re doing. That doesn’t make it right.

        what

        I’m not sure you understand bombing.
