Yeah, Israel should just nuke Gaza and get it all over with.

Dang, A-train - are you feeling ok? I've noticed a slew of these comments in your posts in the last few weeks. I seem to remember a time when you could engage in conversation without the use of glaringly obvious bizzarro strawmen. Now it's standard fare with you.

What seems very improbable to me is that a man can get close enough to fire a rocket from his shoulder into an Israeli community and Israeli troops cannot get to him on the ground, they must resort to blowing the whole block away. It's not like these targets are tanks or helicopters, they are men with small arms.

One guy with a missile on his shoulder in an urban area has a ton of advantages against a far superior force. I'm guessing it seems improbable to you because you don't have a good grasp on how such things work. Just a suggestion, but if you could stomach a few Tom Clancy novels, it might open your eyes a bit to the realities of warfare. (Yes, he writes fiction. He also takes great pains to fill his fictional stories with the realities of organizations, capabilities, and equipment.)
