Hamas seems to be the scapegoat now. "Don't blame Israel blame Hamas..they started it..." get the drift? What if then there was no such rocket attacks to begin with? After all if you were Hamas, would you not aim to make sure at least one soldier on the other side is hit, knowing fully well that either ways the consequences will be the same?
Uncontroversial? No way! This war has controversies upon Controversies. Today one is just not sure who is who and who is working for whom.
All we see is that whether it be the actions of Hamas or any other bogeyman the poor innocent people of Palestine are the ones who have to suffer and pay the ultimate price.
