Violence begets more violence, death and destruction.
A long ongoing essentially one-sided war (or genocide?) suddenly turns bi-directional -- for a moment or two at least.
But, that's hardly going to help. Much greater destruction to follow.
It's evidently a hugely unequal war. That's bound to become self-evident soon after the first surprise (desperate) strike by much the weaker and oppressed side.
Operation "Swords of Iron" follows "Al-Aqsa Flood".
