#1 You might hint that your missiles are aimed, not free flight, and hit what they;re aimed at, plus Israel doesn't need a lot since they're aimed , not just shot "That-a-Way".

I think they've got the idea that Israeli Missiles are as inaccurate as their Rockets, A fatal assumption.

#2 Ummm, second thought,
"Never correct your enemy when he's making a mistake".

#3 The only thing that's guaranteed to work with the misfits inhabiting Gaza is a walking artillery barrage from 600-700 weapons. Second option is to seal 'em up tight and make Egypt take care of them. That will accomplish two things: reduce the daily cost Gaza imposes upon Israel, and cost Israel's enemies ("peace treaty" not withstanding) dinero they could otherwise use to make war against them.

#4 I thought that a couple of weeks ago Israel promised to respond to all rocket attacks with a like attack. guess that didn't have any teeth (either)

#5 Israel needs to retaliate with overwhelming force to rocket attackets. I agree with OP that a walking artillery barrage would be the most appropriate response. Just set the center of the target, draw a circle of agreed-upon radius and pound it to rubble. Tit for tat gets you nowhere. The Japanese and the Germans surrendered because of overwhelming force, and the threat of total annihilation, not because the Allies were nice and considerate people.
