So how many dead Palestinian civilians would it take for Israel to consider its reaction to random rocket fire was unreasonable?.........Clearly not 1,500.

How about 5,000?.......20,000?.......100,000?......or is the number unlimited?

Israel may not target civilians but when bombing Hamas, it takes little consideration of the risk to civilian Arabs and nothing like the care it would take if Jews were present..........Quite a racist policy if you think about it.
