It's widely mentioned that it was hellfires used. They save the Hydras for
use against kids.


I can't believe that they would have used Hellfires.

That's pretty standard for Israeli operations, particularly in Gaza.
It works something like this:

1) Find a target.

2) Lob the biggest posible bomb at him, ensuring maximum collateral damage.

3) Accuse him of "Hiding behind civilians".


Truly, I think it's just a thinly veiled subterfuge to kill as many
Palestinians as possible, thus pre-emtively ruling out any possibility of
peace, and saving Israel the chore of bargaining away it's hard-won
territory.

Very succinct, there, sport. Hightly succinct.
