The optics of Israel bombing the nuts off of Gaza and killing a buttload of innocent people is priceless even if it's not working out the way Hamas intended. Israel had told Hamas if they attack, IDF would pretty much go scorched earth on them. Sadly, the collateral damage of death and displaced folks is the price the Palestinians pay for voting a terrorist organization into their government.

That's a pretty dark way of looking at it. Does that include kids who've never voted in their lives? Given the last election was in 2006, you'd have to be 35 or over to have ever voted for anyone in Gaza (and that's not even taking into account the 56% of Gazans who did vote in that election but didn't vote for Hamas).
