Israel has now been attacking Gaza for three days. I've blogged in various places before about the rocket attacks on Israel (eg here) which are clearly unacceptable and should be condemned. It's easy to explain (which is obviously different to condoning) the motives of a disenfranchised and suffocated Palestinian people with Gaza effectively cut off.
But cycles of violence are never going to be broken if homemade rockets that rarely injure get met with anhilation and significant deaths of women and children. It's hard not to avoid the cliche of driving the disillusioned into the arms of terrorism.
