Here's a question:

For those that view this as a 'war', if you are a settler, living in occupied territory during an 'active war', aren't you responsible for any violence you experience while choosing to live in a war zone?

The standard for Palestinians seems to be that Hamas is ordering people to stay in harms way.

If Rocket and Mortar attacks originating from Egypt and Gaza are impact settlements that have been constructed on contested land in an 'active war' zone, isn't that the same situation as the Palestinians?

Shouldn't we be saying Israel is using human shields by providing an environment which entices settlement building?

Isn't that the same standard? If you don't want to get hit by rockets, don't live in occupied territory?
