I think when you are watching your people (civilians - NOT those who enlisted to be part of this) being killed by the hundreds basically every day, I think even if you said "death to the infidels" you deserve a pass. I can't imagine losing 3 generations in a day, and have it seen by everyone as acceptable collateral damage to maybe take out the enemy.

This is going to drive Hamas recruitment through the roof and Israel will only have themselves to blame.
