Yeah, cause clearly the decisions Israel has made over the last half century have prevented Palestinian attacks.
Whatever would be necessary to cease the rocket fire, but if leveling the school or hospital is all you got then you need to improve your tactics.Please be specific. Hamas fires five rockets from hospitals and schools in Hamas-controlled territory. Specifically, what is the minimum response necessary?

the goal of the Palestinians has ALWAYS been to destroy Israel
I asked for specifics. Imagine you're an Israeli commander. People in Hamas-controlled territory are firing rockets from schools and hospitals at Jewish civilian territory. You order your forces to....
Will there ever be a two state solution? What are your predictions regarding where relations will be at in 5, 10, 15, 20 years, etc?
As a liberal, I find myself in the small group on my side of the aisle that considers themselves "Zionists" in that we support the political aims of the Israeli government. Bill Maher is another leftist Israel supporter who could arguably be labeled a Zionist.
I do not believe a two-state solution is possible. Israel has a land mass roughly the size of Rhode Island with a population that increases each year, just like every other country. There is only so much land available with what they have now to build new housing developments and economic developments, and therefore the practice of building on the Gaza Strip and other areas will only continue. There's just no getting around this.
And as a result, the violence from the Palestinian side (arguably justifiable) will continue.
I don't know what the solution is. I know Israel has a right to exist, and I know the pre-1967 borders are unrealistic and will never happen, no matter how hard the world fights for this. Palestine will continue to stay poor and overcrowded, and violent. I think that the neighboring states could consider absorbing the Palestinian people, which I also know will never happen.
One thing I do know for sure, is that violence will continue to happen and more than likely get worse and worse. And I'll continue to support Israel's right to defend itself by using disproportionate response to annihilate Hamas.
If that is your belief then you are no longer worth having a discussion with.
It would depend heavily on the range, and whether or not they are even hitting anything.
I know. hard to have discussions based on facts when all you want to do is push propaganda. Must be very difficult for you.
