Reply #9: Israel has just as much choice as any other state has, which is plenty... [View All]

You can't absolve Israel of responsibility for the collective punishment of the civilian population of Gaza the way you did in yr post. Civilians shouldn't be used as some sort of expendable bargaining chips between the parties to the conflict, otherwise it then becomes acceptable to try to justify acts of terrorism by Palestinian groups on Israeli civilians...
