This number is very questionable. And it doesn´t matter, how many were destroyed. Hamas makes its cheap rockets itself and surely has a large stockpile of rockets. A Hamas rocket costs about 800 USD. For example: An Iron Dome missile costs 50.000 USD.Pure nonsense. Even if 50 terrorists were killed during the human shield lifting operation, no rocket has been prevented from being fired at Israel and Hamas was not prevented from firing more rockets in the future. Show up with valid arguments or say straight that you give a shit about if Israel is right or wrong in that issue.I'll be more than happy to explain it.
Hamas intentionally targets civilians.
It uses it's own humans as human shields hoping that they will be killed so stupid fuckers will buy into it and they can get propaganda from it.
Israel only targets terrorists. If civilians die it's because their governments intentionally put them in dangerous areas so they die.
ALL the arab deaths are solely the responsibility of their government whom provoke the war by firing missiles, and put their own people in harms way so they get killed.
THEY WANT THEIR OWN PEOPLE TO BE KILLED.
This human shield thing, if true or not is not, a valid argument. The UN estimates that 75% of the killed people in the Gaza strike 2014 were civilians. Israel says it was 50%.Israel fires rocktes at civilians - defending???
Israel fires at terrorists who use civilians for human shields. Que sera sera.
So lets assume that 50 Hamas coward are hiding behind 50 - 75 civilians. Is it worth to kill those civilians in order to get the terrorists? And what has been defended?
It is not a case is it worth it to kill 50 alleged civilians to get 1 hamas terrorist, it more a case of is it worth it to kill 50 Palestinian militia/human shields to stop the death of 1 Israeli child from an illegal weapon.
That answers your question and gives you a question to ponder, Should Israel stop defending its children and allow hamas/fatah to wipe them out to fulfil your beliefs ?
Latest intel says that during protective edge 90% of hamas rockets were used or destroyed, thus proving you wrong. The only way to stop the rockets is to destroy gaza and its inhabitants. Unless you have a more viable solution that would not result in the death of one Israeli then you would be better occupied counting the number of vehicles on your local major interstate from the centre lane.
As you can see, there was hardly an advantage in bombing the Gaza strip.
WRONG most come from Iran and Syria as hamas no longer has any raw materials, they have stolen all the steel water and sewage pipes. This is why they are complaining about Israel only allowing alkathene pipes into gaza.
Now do the sums pro rata, hamas has a finite resource so the real costs of those rockets is $ trillions. This means for every one that does not get through hamas has squandered that amount of money. It also means the psychological value has been lost. Now hamas has no defence against Israeli shells and rockets so try and use human shields to protect their rocket launch sites. Under the rules in the Geneva conventions this makes the civilians militia and thus valid military targets. The advantage to Israel is that there are less terrorists for them to worry about.
