Do you listen to any voices of opposing opinion from Israel?
You push your cherry picked opinions as if they are the only opinions.
And that is what they are: opinions.
There is an old saying.... opinions are like buttholes. Everyone has one. And they are all pretty much worth the same. Not much except to the person in possession of it.

What "IDF rockets"?
Hamas rockets are not guided and are aimed at Israel.
Are you seriously suggesting they are being used to take out IDF JDAMs?!!!
Not to attack Israeli civilian targets indiscriminately?
They are not guided.
And security lapses are more likely.
Even our own IC dropped the ball. THE US SHOULD HAVE KNOWN. What do were pay OUR spooks to do?

Anything to distract Hamas are terrorists that rule Gaza with an iron hand with no current free elections in Gaza.

Yeah, same question.
Not going to play, because we can trade other people's opinions all day long.
I'm here for intelligent debate, not emotion driven opinions, by authors not in attendance.
I want thoughtful, solution heavy opinions.
A pair of classified C.I.A. intelligence reports issued in the days ahead of a major Hamas attack on Israel warned about a potential escalation in violence but did not predict the complex, multipronged attack that Hamas gunmen launched against Israel, according to U.S. officials.
The first of the intelligence reports, dated Sept. 28, described the possibility that Hamas would launch rockets into Israel over a period of several days.
Since William J. Burns became director of the C.I.A. in 2021, he has warned, publicly and privately, that violence between Israelis and Palestinians could escalate, echoing comments by other American officials who work in the region.

Are you not going to use the very successful 'human shields' argument?
