The Middle East crisis

Israel has to clearly stop its attacks in Gaza that's incurring too many civilian casualties. Of course Israel lost patience as Hamas has been provoking Israel with repeated rocket attacks and Israel has a right to defend its people. Yet such aggressive move by Israel has only turned the world against it and the people of Gaza who were almost turning away from Hamas may now be uniting just to fight Israel. Hamas' repeated rocket and mortar attacks against Israel could have been dealt with differently instead of such aggressive bombing.The attacks are also not well planned as instead of weapons facilities, the police stations and schools in Gaza are becoming targets. This could be a major diplomatic failure for Israel. Of course Israel is not required to remain silent but this is obviously not the only way.
I'll post links to my articles soon.
