Well we might never get to find out. Any weaponry which targets civilian areas is fired without regard for civilians, no matter what excuses are given. Both sides do that. The justification given by Hamas is that they are under siege, which is undeniable and intolerable. The justification given by Israel is that they are protecting their civilians. I think they are actually visiting on their civilians far greater insecurity and cause for fear for many years to come. Unfortunately, so far the Israeli regime has managed to hoodwink most of the civilian population. The world outside Israel is a different proposition, though I'm certain that AIPAC in the US will be sharpening its teeth as we speak in order to keep The Land Of The Free onside.
