No matter what "narrative" you seek to believe, the fact is that Hamas hasn't been firing every once in awhile - They have been firing rockets and mortars regularly. Sometimes daily. You can see a list here and more info here
These attacks almost exclusively target civilians. more than 20,000 rockets in the past 20 years.
Additionally, airborne arson attacks are carried out..
edit:fixed links
You fucked up your links by putting bangs in front of them. Don't put bangs in front of your links. That's for embedding images
Thanks, just started using boost and I used it's link function. either I don't know what I'm doing (probably), or it's a big.
Point taken. The point was mainly that the escalations (to which Israel responds with airstrikes or invasions) happen every few years. Most of the time, people in other parts of the world don't really hear about what's going on there in the media. The times when we do are probably because such an escalation happens (e.g. now).
Your links don't work for me by the way, I can see in the source code what you meant to link to, but they don't display as links for me.
Thanks, fixed the links.
What most people don't realize is how much this situation is constant. these escalations are only peaks in an ongoing conflict.
Imagine if Germany launched V2 rockets at Britain for so long the British had built automated defenses to shoot them down.
Largely ineffective rocket attacks. See these charts for what near daily rocket attacks and near daily snipers, police beatings, etc, do for relative casualties between Israeli and Palestinian peoples.
