    They (Israel) can’t claim they didn’t know where Hamas cells were hiding before the attack, and somehow know where they are after the attack. That is why the response is total bullshit. If they knew where to strike beforehand, they would have done it. It’s all a power play at the cost of many lives on both sides.
