I'll wait? Is it 50,000? 20,000? How many of your citizens get bombed before you are allowed to send a stern letter? I'm just trying to figure out the ratio that Israel is supposed to be following?

2014 conflict by the numbers:
800 rocket strikes from Gaza to Israel.
1,300 airstrikes from Israel to Gaza.
Palestinian casualties: 208 militants, 1,959 citizens, 380 children.
Israeli casualties: 65 soldiers, 3 citizens, 0 children.
Palestinians displaced: 520,000
Israelis displaced: 0
Hamas takes credit for a lot of heinous acts (because they're pieces of shit), but using civilians as human shields isn't one of them... They very well could be lying... But on the other hand, maybe Israel needs to break a few eggs if they want to bake a cake - losing a few troops to ensure they hit the targets they seek might cost them a lot less in the court of public opinion than indiscriminately killing women and children.
