**Hamas actions are covered in another article, in detail. This article is about the Israeli response to Hamas actions. Embedding the "good intent" of Israel in the title is not objective (i.e. "Israeli Defensive Assault on Gaza"), simply because Hamas also has "assumedly-good intent" behind launching the rockets, that being assumedly "resisting the occupation". When you see that someone replied to a point, start by replying to this reply rather than starting all over again by stating the same original point again, we are working towards consensus here.
