Israel blaimed fo defending themselves

The left is screaming that the recent actions by Israel are too harsh. They appear to believe that Israel picked this fight and are now being unfair. They forget that rockets were coming from Gaza on a daily basis; sometimes up to 80 a day. How would you react if someone were threatening your family? Would you take minimal action or would you try to insure that they could not injure those you love.
I will always remember something my late father was prone to say after one of my brothers or I lost a fight and cried that the other guy didn’t fight fair. He would tell us there is only one fair fight, the one you win. The only way Israel will ever have peace is assuring their Arab neighbors do not have the means to attract them. Don’t blame Israel for the Arabs bring a knife to a gunfight. Like the North Vietnam leaders, the Arabs are depending on the media to manipulate public opinion to win a victory they can not win with military actions.
