Disproportionality of Israeli Response ?

Over a period of some three years Israeli subjugated itself to a false peace treaty with Hamas. However, Hamas with its allies circuitously and tortuous conducted low intensity war, with Israel. Israeli officials did try targeted smart sanctions , to closure of various entrance points to Gaza. Yet Hamas only increased its hostilities, threw the bulk of its economic resources into its war campaign.

Openly with malevolence Hamas rebuffed any peace offerings, or cessations of its hostile actions with Israel.

As Hamas rocket siege reached to scorches of thousands, fired indiscriminately into Israeli communities, Washington Officials along with International Communities were curiously silent, tacit. Israel stood alone, unaided.

Factually the Hamas rocket campaign did not cause extensive damage, with minimal loss of lives to Israel. Yet behind this iniquitous certainty, its credence dissipates.

The Iranian regime and its Hamas patronage, from in-depth training, to providing logistical support for asymmetrical warfare, involving millions of dollars. It was this same Iranian regime which introduced and created the cult of the Islamic Homicidal – Suicide bomber, infecting the Arab Palestinian populous, to a global pandemic.

Should have the Israeli government waited until the Hamas was outfitted with more accurate , deadly and devastating missiles and mortars? Already holding some 200,000 Israelis hostage in their missile ranges. And just exactly how high did the Israeli body count need to be? Or was several thousand rockets a foreboding specter of a firestorm in the making, a shape of things to come ? No less a clear and precise picture of Hamas's lethal intentions?

Hamas's founding and governing articles are no less than a blood painted genocide, for the Jewish People, no matter where they are period. An Islamic Fascist Ideology, created for the sole purpose of a holocaust, in wit this demented, twisted hate filled ideology is indoctrinated at every level of Arab Palestinian populous.

Perhaps the real Proportionality and Disproportionality was the act of insanity which leads others to believe they can build or even create any type of peace with such a heinous entity, to begin with.
