Israel seems to be creating more orphans and therefore more Hamas fighters, thereby creating more of a long-term threat to itself. It needs to rebuild Gaza and give the citizens reasons not to support Hamas other than bombing them. According to former MI6 Chief John Sawers, citing a senior #Israel intel official, "60% of #Hamas fighters alive today are orphans from previous wars."

Exactly. Therein lies the problem.
