Spoken like a person that has never experienced what it is to be under rocket fire. You feel the fear, you hear the siren, the explosions. People that are depending on you are also scared, your children for example. That is if you get to be with them instead of being recalled to the military as a backup force. Then it's your wife alone with the kids. You feel helpless in that situation, you don't care who you should hurt or why... you feel the need to protect your own.
Tell that person he should remain calm. Tell that to the family of the dead boy(who was in a bomb shelter, yet still died from shrapnel making its way through.
People don't stay calm when fired upon, they panic! The feeling of helplessness leads to hatred and it's an endless cycle.
