Sean: What kind of “decent” treatment do you think would convince Hamas — a terror group hellbent on annihilating seven million Jews — to behave in anything like a civil manner? When a man is trying to break into your house and screaming at the top of his lungs, “I will kill you!” is treating him decently the best way to defend yourself? What Israel needs to do here is what the US did at Fallujah. Empty Gaza City of civilians, then go kill a few thousand Hamas fighters. It will be ugly and costly, just as Fallujah was. The World will not like it. But Hamas will never attempt to face off Israel again when it’s over.
