It's not Israel's fault it has a strong, well-run army
In the days of the intifadas and the Israel Defense Forces' operations in the territories, I understood the empathy for the bitter lot of Palestinians ... But the wailing over the deaths of children in Gaza while we are fighting a defensive war over the security of our country has really crossed the line, if you ask me. (Source: Haaretz).
I feel sorry for the people of Gaza, but I feel even sorrier for the civilian population of southern Israel, which has been bombarded by rockets for the last eight years.
I feel sorry for the kids who wet their beds at night. I feel sorry for the Color Red sirens that send our citizens on a mad dash for shelters, if there are any, in the hopes of finding cover within 15 seconds. I feel sorry about the homes that have been damaged, the cities that have been drained of their citizens and the schools hit by rockets that were miraculously empty at the time.
