In an op-ed masquerading as "
Analysis" and laden with fatuous assertions, Reuters correspondent
Douglas Hamilton, who should have been terminated long ago for material breaches of the Reuters
Trust Principles, suggests that:
Most Gaza rockets inflict no more than material damage [on Israeli communities]
A commenter on the Reuters website sets Hamilton straight:
I take issue with the statement: “Most Gaza rockets inflict no more than material damage.” There are hundreds of thousands of residents who are being traumatized many times every day by the threat of these missiles. And this has been going on, on and off, for years! Children are growing up under this constant threat, always having to be aware of where the nearest shelter is in case of a siren. And there have been injuries and death from these rockets in the past.
And please don’t tell me that the Gazans have it worse. All they have to do is STOP launching rockets and mortars, stop tunneling under the fence in order to attack and the Israeli army will have no reason to attack them!
Hear, hear.
