Is anybody else 'frequency hopping' on the GAZA War?

I am empathize with everyone except Hamaz. I can't get to a big picture on what should happen. I limit my time watching or hearing about the horror. I am so mad at Hamaz for cannibalizing GAZA and the Palestinian people there going on 17 years. Obviously I think it is henious what they did on the 7th to Israelis that is ongoing with the hostages. And for cannibalizing Palestinians again by using them as human shields as they are doing now. One would think if the Israelis could go into the tunnels slowly they could starve out Hamaz? Less need for bombing of Gaza City?

rescue as many hostages as possible, then seal up the tunnels and try the terrorists for horrendous acts.

I thinks its a good sign that the ground assault has been delayed. There was a very good segment on Andrea Mitchell with a former Amb. who was just super knowledgable.

One of the next replies will be the standard line from Israel's staunchest defenders as if to say stop posting such questions and comments.
