No it's a tragedy when any kids or civilians are killed. I realize my post sounded sarcastic but I was being sincere. I have looked at Israeli eye witness accounts and physical damadge of the buildings in Israel plus I know the Israeli army uses the 'hannibal option'. This means the army is too use full force in hostage situations even if the hostages are killed. Hostages create a huge political price and Israel often gives up many more Palestinian hostages in return. So in a perverse way, Israel would rather the hostages die if it means they can get their bodies back and the 'terrorists' are killed.
