hostages, killed childrens, families, grandparents. what should have been done? how can the israelis go after hamas if they are hiding among the palestinian civilians? >> well, jake, that is a very fair question. as i've said a million times, hamas is a disgusting terrorist organization and what they did is unspeakable. and they are still holding over a hundred hostages. the situation is difficult. it's a highly densely populated urban area. fight thing is very difficult. no question about it. this is not an easy task to go after hamas. but you don't starve hundreds of thousands of children in the process. israel is a very sophisticated military. one of the most sophisticated in the world. it is not easy. but you don't destroy an entire people in the process. i think most people would say that is morally unacceptable.
