12. Did Hamas's truce include suicide bombers and rockets? beginning
when.

As to violence against civilians both sides are guilty of accomplishing same, but only the Israel side tries, via warnings and in some cases cancellation of attacks, to minimize such violence.

The US press reported Syrian attempts to resupply Hex with more missiles via transport in civilian vehicles - and the Israeli response to blow up such vehicles. I agree such a response is ineffective and kills 100's of civilians to get one Hez - but it is the same tactic the US used in WW2.

The long history of Hez (and various other groups in the West Bank and Gaza) using humanitarian and medical vehicles to transport men and missiles is well known and I won't repeat it here - but if you interested, much of such activity was facilitated by the English and French left, and stories of such - and denials by those on the left - are not hard to find.
