It is merely an expression. If Hamas want to play big boys games against Israel, then that is fine, I hope Israel obliges them each and every time. I mean, let us face facts, Israel could have wiped them off the face of the earth if they wanted to. So, would I ever support Palestine, not even if my life depended on it no.
I know it's an expression, slackwit - try to keep up. I'll re-phrase the question without resorting to metaphors that seem to strain you:
When a group of 10 Palestinian teens throw rocks at Israeli soldiers for 20 minutes, does Israel then have the moral right to conduct 5 days of shelling, bombing and strafing in the name of 'retaliation'? (I'm making this as easy an I can for you, so I won't link to the actual incident. Try a search engine, do your own homework.)
Now, try to understand what I'm asking. Not is Israel able to do this, but do they have the moral right to do it? Bear in mind that this isn't a case of national security, or the preservation of the state of Israel. There is no 'existential threat' involved. This is rock-throwing kids being answered with five days of mechanized retaliation, that resulted in the death of just over 20 Palestinians who - as far as can be determined - did not throw the rocks.
Idiot.
