MSNBC: Hamas Rockets Actually Don't Do That Much Damage You Know

Of course Hamas is launching attacks. Wouldn't you if jets were bombing your neighbors and tanks busting into your city gates? I certainly would. And ask yourself, what do the Palestinians to to attack with? Suicide bombs and bombs packed with rocks and nails - that is some desperation. Israel is attacking desperate people who's hold on their land is slipping away. Keep in mind that these Palestinians have been living on that land for generations. What would you do?

Over the weekend in an interview with Israeli Ambassador Michael Oren, MSNBC host Mara Schiavocampo suggested rocket attacks "rarely do damage" as Israel continues to be under siege from Hamas militants and as millions of Israelis are camped out in bomb shelters.

“Living under the threat of rocket attack is certainly a psychological trauma. But what would you say to those who argue that the rockets are essentially very ineffective, they rarely do damage and that the response from Israelis is disproportional to the threat they’re under.”
