The small rocket launches are a type of rocket called Qassam, something that was designed for the Gazans due to the Israeli embargo on materials, built to be built and launched from your backyard. These are harder to control, especially when Israel is killing off the Palestinian police force (struck a policeman's parade with an airstrike, for instance). The larger rocket launches are under their control, and generally don't come around in peacetime.

Right: folks flip their shit when people generalize groups of Muslims, like the people of Gaza. There are some extraordinarily hateful people in the strip, and they need to be marginalized, but the others, the many who are just trying to live their lives under the oppressive nature of the Israeli blockade, they do not deserve condemnation simply for the acts of some among them.

"Oi vey! The goyim are starting to take notice."

Joking aside, I'm rather neutral on the Israeli - Palestine conflict. However, I do dislike the state of Israel. But for other reasons that do not involve Palestine.

I'm so glad people are staying civilized and avoiding attacks and antagonistic language when discussing this/

The truth is hard to accept if people aren't willing to.

Also, any military invasion is state sponsored terrorism even if its for a good cause. Terrorism isn't just committed by the stateless

And to those who claim Israel is defending themselves. Its hardly an even battlefield. Hamas militant power is so weak it does nothing more than create a nuisance for Israel. That doesn't justify killing 2000 mostly citizens in Gaza. When will we realise we humans are really equals? No one is superior to another
