My point had nothing to do with my stance on it's justification. It does however illustrate the danger of tolerating a force which does not abide by any "laws of war". Israel created and has tolerated Hamas, and since they have been so tolerant they have opened themselves up to scenarios such as high profile officials' families being kidnapped in battle, to the end that they have to have them removed from the country instead of fight with the rest. It is further proof that Israel is an ungodly and cowardly state.
