It's a disproportionate response, and misdirected. But it is definitely a response to something real, which the more rabid anti-Israel types seem to gloss over.

Israel has a right to defend itself, but they're bombing refuge camps.

Yes it's a humanitarian disaster through and through, and the government response is internationally humiliating for Israel. I felt the same way when the USA started carpet bombing Baghdad after 9/11, although that was far worse and made much less sense.

I'm not arrogant enough to think I have sufficient knowledge or access to reliable enough information to make that judgement. I can certainly say it's a humanitarian disaster and tragedy.
