The Gaza militants like to shoot missles at Israel. It's lots of fun, right? And it's difficult for the Israelis to retaliate specifically against those who are doing the shooting. So what should the Israelis do? They could flatten the neighborhoods that host rocket attacks. This would take care of the problem but would also kill thousands of innocent civilians. So that's not very civilized.
So the Israelis would like to respond by cutting electricity to Gaza instead. Israel supplies about half of Gaza's electricity directly from its own lines. Kinda strange, huh? Supplying electricity (at this point basically for free) to your worst enemy. But I digress. Anyway, no, cutting the electricity would be totally unacceptable says Amnesty International. What does Amnesty International say about shooting rockets into civilian populations? You tell me, Amnesty International. What should the Israelis do?
