The circumstances in which civilian casualties occur in the Gaza Strip are of such kind that the ones who are really up to blame are Hamas and other organization who only use the lives, and deaths, of Palestinians to furter improve their image in the media.

As long as there isn't some assualt on Israeli civilians (by firing rockets or other measures), and as long as they don't stand near Hamas leaders (which for reasons I described earlier, is very hard for the Palestinians), Palestinians have little reason to fear for their lives (outside of being attacked by the Hamas)

That WOULD make sense, but my question is, why do homes have to be bulldozed as well?


Well, I would never choose to do so, but at the time:

One of the main reasons for pepole to become suicide bombers back then, was that they were promised that their family will get a very large sum of money after their death.

So, the Israeli government thought at the time "this will stop suicide bombing cause the money the families get won't help them".
However, obviously, it may have stopped some suicide bombing, but on the same time caused even more hate towards Israel which cause more pepole to join terrorist organizations.

And that's why they also stopped bulldozing buildings (i'm pretty sure of it), however, the damage was done.

It was wrong to do it, but there WAS logic (or at least, some of it) behind it.



Bet with Dr.A.Peter.Nintendo that Super Mario Galaxy 2 won't sell 15 million copies up to six months after it's release, the winner will get Avatar control for a week and signature control for a month.
