As we can clearly see this eye for an eye war is blinding both parties and escalating hatred...Israel needs to open the gates of Gaza...This Ghetto Prison is a breeding ground of justified hatred of Israel who oppresses them with an inhuman blockade...They Will Not Bow!

...Hamas “succeeded in exacting a price from Israel and causing serious damage and losses among its soldiers,” Yoram Schweitzer, a senior research fellow at Israel’s Institute for National Security Studies in Tel Aviv, wrote in a report. The military campaign “strengthened its hegemony among all the organizations operating in Gaza,” he said.
Fighters Killed
To be sure, Hamas lost hundreds of its fighters during the war, about two-thirds of its rockets and dozens of attack tunnels, some of which cost as much as $3 million to build, according to Israel. There are also international moves afoot to give the rival Fatah movement, led by Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, new powers in Gaza.
While the losses in Gaza were tremendous, “this is not likely to have a major material impact on Hamas the organization,” said Youssef Munayyer, executive director of the Washington-based Palestine Center, a research group. “At the end of the day, Palestinians blame Israel for their plight and will support resistance to it more than acquiescence to it.”
