Step 1. Kill Palestinian Militant Leader inside Gaza, taking out several civilians including children alongside with him.
Step 2. Allow for the 100% guaranteed retaliation in the form of rockets (ie. iron-dome fail)
Step 3. Ignore the fact that they started the whole thing (does anyone hear of the initial attack ANYWHERE on the media, for all anyone knows the start of this were the rockets coming down on Israel)
Step 4. Rain hell on Palestine and hopefully initiate a greater conflict which will 100% guaranteed pull Iran in or make it easy for them to pretend that Iran has stepped in (ie. already "reports" are calling the rockets "iranian rockets") which would get them what they want, a full out conflict with Iran.
Step 5. Russia and China chime in on one side (Russia is already backing Egypt's response and they have made it clear they back Iran in case of a war like conflict, as does China) and the US et al. on their side, possibly igniting World War 3. A risk to mitigated as it develops or "allowed/instigated" to happen as they play it by ear. (yes, they are that crazy)

This couldn't have anything to do with the 200 rockets launched from the Gaza strip prior to Israels retaliation?
You only see one side to the equation here.
How many rockets must be fired at Israel before they can fight back?

"Quran explicitly refers to the return of the Jews to the Land of Israel before the Last Judgment" "Palazzi believes that Israel exists by divine right and that the Koran clearly states (Sura 5:21) that God granted the Land of Israel to the Children of Israel and ordered them to settle there. In addition, it is predicted that before the end of days, God will bring the Children of Israel to retake possession of the Land, gathering them from the different countries and nations (Sura 17:104). Oddly enough, Palazzi's reading of the Koran is backed up by, of all sources, Al Qaida."
Israel has chosen to attack Gaza in order to avoid reaching a longer-term peace settlement that was being negotiated with the help of Hamas’ military leader Ahmen Jabari, who was assassinated in an Israeli attack Wednesday, says Israeli activist. Israeli peace activist Gershon Baskin spoke to RT confirming that Ahmen Jabari was involved in peace settlement negotiations with Israel and was due to send Hamas’ version of a peace draft to Baskin on Wednesday evening before he was killed. RT: So you're saying that a draft of a permanent truce agreement already existed. What went wrong then?
