Problem is, those "100's" of rockets (100's meaning 160-180, so not a multiple of 100) compare in the following way:
Hamas Rocket Attacks:
Deaths - 0
Injuries - 0
Israeli Bombing in Gaza:
Deaths - 50+
Injuries - 450+
(both numbers including civilians)
I'm not posting this as a statement for one side or another. I'm not stating who is right, or who is wrong, I'm simply stating the numbers as they are.

There have been hundreds of rockets fired.

No, you intentionally leave things out. There are less Israeli deaths because they build shelters and other defenses to keep their people safe. Hamas shoots from areas with lots of innocent Palestinians effectively using them as human shields. In fact, there have been instances where when Palestinians have tried to stop their homes from being used as a rocket firing site, they were shot. If Hamas had access to more accurate rockets, there would be more injuries, but Israel does their best to deny those weapons.
If Hamas rockets are so ineffective, why do they keep shooting them?
Here is a breakdown of rocket attacks:
