150 rockets in one day being fired indiscriminately at civilian areas by the ruling government in Gaza. There will be no UN resolutions or condemnations. This is just considered normal now.
Israel is responding with airstrikes targeted specifically at Hamas and Islamic Jihad military targets. Worth noting Israeli airstrikes are preceded with warnings for people to clear the area to ensure limited collateral damage.
Of course the inevitable response from the UN and others will be statements urging restraint from both sides as if firing rockets indiscriminately at civilians and airstrikes targeted at infrastructure that supports those rockets are equivalent.
And now there are reports that a small child was killed in Israel's retaliatory airstrikes, which is another win for Hamas as they gladly sacrifice Palestinian lives for their campaign against Israel. And now Israel will be condemned.
The cycle continues.
The cycle continues.
Of course the people who now condemn Israel (instead of Hamas) are silent about the indiscriminate firing of rockets at Israeli civilians.
They expect Israelis to just take hundreds of rockets being fired at innocent people, which is an insane standard.
