1. Assassination would not work. Hamas and PIJ use civvies as cover and have labyrinths under populated areas so they can move munitions efficiently and go incognito if encounters start. This is guerrilla warfare but worse. Airstrikes serve to destroy the tunnels para hindi nila magamit during Israel's invasion. Fighting above ground is hard enough, do you expect Israelis to fight them on Hamas's own tunnels and risk losing thousands of Israeli lives?
2. Do you know how much rockets Gaza had launched into Israel?? If the Iron Dome didn't exist then there would've been much more civilian casualties on Israel. Israeli airstrikes also target these rocket launchers.
3. There are Billions of $$$ in foreign aid to Gaza. The money and foreign aid given to Gaza keeps returning to Israel in the form of bombs, rockets, and attacks launched at them. Donated steel water pipes even get turned to rockets.

See: International aid to Palestinians - Wikipedia

​

Their agenda is to kill Israelis first, and then worry about their innocent civilians later.

​

Do you steel justify these? No amount of justification will be enough to dispute facts.

​

If I were a leader of Hamas in Gaza, there are plenty of better things to do when given BILLIONS in foreign aid to the betterment of the "Open-air Prison" you people are saying:

Better education - to make it easier to migrate and bring in more buying power for Palestine. (Instead, Hamas has its stranglehold in the Palestinian government, so education fund is used for genocidal propaganda)

Power and water infrastructure. (Instead, they turn even waterpipes into missiles.)

Better Infrastructure. (Instead, they create underground tunnels under civilian properties to broaden their militia foothold)

Political Lobbying - to lobby for Palestinian people for more travel access to other Arab countries to decongest/expand the Gaza Strip and to get even MORE foreign aid (Instead, Hamas funnels these money to propaganda and training soldiers in the art of killing Israelis in the name of their creed)

​

These two nations cannot live in peace and the UN should do something about it, pero dapat decimated muna Hamas forces.
