What do you guys think about the Israel-Hamas war?

Nothing new.
It's not exactly the first time a truce has been broken in the area.
I think Israel's gonna end up invading, rounding up Hamas and those associated, and do a general clean-up of the area.

I think they're looking to wipe Hamas out for good, so they don't bother them any more.
Certainly what I'd do.

But is Israel really right in what it's doing? I don't know where my sympathies lie....

Sure, they're right, if you're Israel. If you're Palestine, then probably not, no.

Haha.
He's neither.
I feel sorry for those caught in the middle, but, I want Israel to wipe Hamas out, otherwise they'll just keep fighting.
No way Hamas toppled Israel.
Least not for a decade or so.
I'd rather have them all be wiped out now than loose a few thousand more people until one of them looses by attrition.

Oh well then, I support your decision(it's just because I can't make up my mind).

I don't support/oppose people because of their nationality.
But I think it's high time the Israelis stop the attacks. Why did they have to bombard a Mosque? They should have sticked to a ground offensive from the start. That way, civilians might have been spared.

They'd have gotten torn apart if they tried a straight ground offensive and they know it.

Innocents would have been killed in a straight ground assault too; you can't hope to fight house-to-house without "collateral" damage - especially as defenders tend to exploit this deliberately to produce bad media coverage. It's war. People die. Of course, I don't think they should have attacked in the first place, but this is Israel and there's nothing much anybody can do about it..
