JERUSALEM (AP) — Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Wednesday that Israel would “crush and destroy” Hamas in response to its attack.

Netanyahu said every Hamas member was a “dead man.”

Netanyahu made the remarks in a late-night televised address as Israeli planes pounded Gaza in response to the unprecedented attack.

    In this logic no country can ever be retaliated against for acts of war and their war crimes. Israel should just sit back and allow their people to be killed. They won’t do that and as far as most of the world sees it as Hamas representing the area. Why should we hold Israel to a higher moral standard than anyone attacking them?
