This is a standard military tactic. When France was occupied in WW2 there were still people willing to put up a fight at any cost. Tha Nazi's made it clear that 10 or more people would be executed for every German killed in Germany (occupied France). It worked very well and most people got the message. But there were some that just wouldn't learn and kept on attacking the occupying Germans. But the attacks were kept to a mininum.

Israel is using the same tactic. Hamas is launching rockets into Israel (occupied Palestine) and has killed one person. Israel response by killing hundreds. The attacks wont stop but they will be kept to a minimum.
Maybe it will end like WW2. Maybe the worlds armies will all get together and liberate Palestine. But in the meantime we can expect Israel to continue it's war against the civilian population and that will keep resistance to a mininum-

It's interesting that what nobody is saying is that almost all of those 300 dead in Gaza are Hamas operatives. Unfortunately, when any group sets up housekeeping in civilian populated areas, some civilians will get killed. BTW, in WW2 as long as you're bringing it up, the Nazis launched V1 and V2 rockets into London on a daily basis. Part of the allied response to this was to level Dresden in Germany to the ground. Not a building was left standing, and over 100,000 were killed. Maybe Israel needs to do the same thing and forget about trying to surgically take out Hamas.
