Steve, of course, the bombings are bad, but you failed to cite that Hamas offices have been setup into residential buildings and even hospitals.

It is widely known (but I wonder why neglected by some groups) that Israelis warn Palestinians in advance where bombings will occur

It is also widely known (again I wonder why neglected by some groups) that the strategy of Hamas and the Hezbollah in past years has been to use civilians and their dwellings as human shields.

What can I say? As I wrote in the other recent thread, Israel is no hero of this film, but the villain is clearly another one. And the villain is smart, it even managed to attract some consensus from the crowds in the film. A very bad villain makes the film more interesting.
