#1 Is this cause to call off the cease-fire?

#2 The rockets killed a total of 3 people during the offensive, fighting killed 10 soldiers, 4 from friendly fire, if I read the totals correctly.

That's not a very good return for firing 600 rockets off. That's about a .5% rate of return if you want to think of it as an investment.

If I read the business news correctly, that's still a better "ROE" than General Motors, Bigjim.

Israel needs to announce publically that if they have to go back into Gaza for any reason, they will leave no two stones piled atop one another. When the first rocket is fired at them, they need to go into central Gaza City and flatten one block, just to show the Gazans AND Hamass that they mean what they say.
