Their only option for what? They've been chucking those shitty rockets for twenty years now without any positive effect unless you consider killing some russian grandma in Ashkelon a positive effect.
What I'm saying is that this strategy of killing ruffly one Israeli civilian a year with rockets has been tried for twenty years and has always had the opposite effect.
How is this bad faith? People are telling me that an Islamist organisation killing innocent Jews with rockets for twenty years without any positive results for the people of Gaza to show for it is ok, actually. Weird takes about Israeli civilians have been a staple of this community since reddit days.
Fuck I hate when people like you try to pick apart Palestinians shooting rockets like its some fucking wonk policy decision that has to be analysed, its effectiveness weighed up.
Theyre a goddamn occupied, colonised people fighting back. I don't need "positive results" to be accounted for. "Never in history has violence been initated by the oppressed. How could they themselves be the initiators, if they themselves are the result of violence." - Paulo Freire
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palestinian_rocket_attacks_on_Israel says "2014, 26 Israeli civilians (four of them minors) and two foreign nationals were killed in Israel by Palestinian rocket and mortar fire. In addition, five soldiers were killed, three in Israel and two in the Gaza Strip. Another Israeli civilian and three foreign nationals were killed by rocket fire at settlements in the Gaza Strip, before they were evacuated."" That's about 32 civilians in ten years. United States press makes the rocket attacks seem like a huge deal.

Their only option to create any kind of negative disincentive for Israel strong enough to prevent a slaughter. What's your suggestion?

So what's your suggestion?
Doing something else maybe?

The extent of the rocket attacks are grossly overestimated by Americans. They killed 0 for several years.
