re: #29 Racer X

You’re lobbing rockets at an enemy. The enemy comes over and beats you up a bit. Everyone tells your enemy to stop it and leave. They leave. You continue lobbing rockets.

You won.

There’s lots of destruction all over Gaza, but yeah, Hamas will probably be emboldened by the Israeli withdrawal, rebuild, keep launching rockets. And this whole damned affair will keep going ad nauseum until the world gets a sense of morals other that “open war is ba-a-a-ad!”
