    Can confirm, several rockets everyday. Checkout insta/snaps of people in the south. they are used to it now, drinking coffee and watching oncoming missile from Gaza. This is a very asymmetric war and people cheer a side because the other side has protections in place. Very weird times

      What bullshit drink are you consuming? The Iron Dome has only a 90% success rate, so 10 % of the rockets come through. Those rockets maim and kill civilians.

        The drink where I have to go to the bunker every now and then. My point was that the Israel defense system is pretty cool and the casualties per missile fired is much less than the other side.

        Can you tell us how many maimed and injured civilians there are on both sides of this conflict before the 7th of October. I can tell you, according to OCHA:

        • 152.560 Palestinians are injured, vs.
        • 6.307 Israelians

        Source: https://www.ochaopt.org/data/casualties

        And just for context the armed wing of Hamas is believed to be around 30K. How come the most “moral army in the world” has managed to injure and continues to kill and maim so many people, who evidently have nothing to do with Hamas?!?

        Is this a proportionate measure? You should really question yourself how you would feel if you were on the other side of the fence.

        And a friendly reminder that calling someone’s opinion a bullshit does not speak too highly of yourself.
