File under: Hamas

#1 the gaza city raid wasn't just about hitting a rocket launching site, it was also to probe the capabilities of Hamas ground defense

#3 The Israelis are too worried about being surgical. Haven't we learned that just taking out some leadership is not effective?

#4 Taking out the leadership is not enough. You have to take out the number three's. Problem is that there are always more number three's. So you have to be inclusive...

#5 Surgical, smurgical. Rubbleize it.

#6 I think this is more about weapons than people.

Most of the rockets that Hamas uses are relatively simple to use and there are lots of people who are willing to be in their rocket brigade.

destroying the rocket launchers is critical as is knocking out the rocket stockpile

we'll know that the IDF is getting close to its goal post if the daily number of rockets declines to 50 or fewer per day and if the daily number of long range rockets gets below 4 or so.

#7 If you take out all the people, then it doesn't matter a whit how many rockets launchers are left on the ground.

#8 If you turn off the fricking water after three days they will just be crawling to their rocket launchers.

#13 well the gaza electric supply will be reduced starting now

not because of Israel but because a gaza rocket hit a transmission station on the supply line to gaza

#15 Yep

#16 There's a real opportunity here: the Israelis could bomb all sorts of stuff in Gaza and when people complain, just reply, "no it wasn't us, it was an errant Hamas rocket."

It's like a perp falling down the flight of stairs at the police station. Elebenteen times.

Try to prove them wrong.

#19 Maybe Israel can generate transients and noise in the electric power supplied to Gaza that will pass through the transformers and cook all their electronics far and wide. Bwahahahaha!
