Israel is a lynch mob. A lynch mob doesn't "strike". It bludgeons, it lashes out. Remember the report that Israel justifies civilian casualties in proportion to the value place on the target, ranging up to dozens if not a hundred for one person it thinks it needs to kill. Nobody ever said racism was an exact science. Reuters report: "Wes J. Bryant, a national security analyst and former US Air Force senior adviser on civilian harm at the Pentagon, reviewed the satellite imagery and concluded that all of the buildings, including the school, had been hit with "picture perfect" precision strikes, it said."
