And those "militants" cause far more damage than israel ever had.

Since israel operate on a live and let live formula, and since hamas use human shields and hides within civilians structures, hamas is the main responsible for gazan civilians deaths.
(Btw, i hope people realize something about a lot of the civilian houses that are being bombed. what you need to understand, is that hamas not always force civilians to give them a room to act as tunnel entrance or serve as rocket stash, it sometimes actually pay the house owner to do so. while its sad the civilians are forced to accept such deals out of poorness hamas inflict on them, it still completely change the status of the civilians. since they are being willingly paid by hamas to stash rockets, its as if they are terrorists hiding rockets themselves)
Firing munitions at, or near, UN sites offering humanitarian services, regardless of if Hamas attacks or members were coming from there or nearby, does not sound like "live or let live" to me. If anything, such acts are going to actively aid Hamas by making Israel seem like the big bully-boy Hamas want Israel to look like.
By the logic of "its OK if we warn them", then Hamas would be just as justified in launching rockets at Israel, if they warned people to move just before they did in order to justify their use of force using exactly the same justification as Israel, similar as to how the IRA operated. Not that I think it would be, though.
But, if they didn't fire or operate from within those buildings, those buildings probably wouldn't have been attacked or if hamas stopped firing rockets altogether, there wouldn't be shelling by israel. Classic live and let live.
And actually, yes, if hamas had warned buildings or even specific areas minutes and hours before it fired onto them, it would have been considered "Ok" by international laws. since it doesn't that is considered an international crime against humanity.

" Israel warn palestines before they attack, we don't warn anyone before we shoot rockets or attack (my supplementing - through other means such as ground operations), which makes their (israel) attacks perfectly legal. so people should know what they are talking about before responding emotionally.'
Justification is a totally different question, however, and israel's justification is self defence. hamas justification is an aspiration to set up an islamic caliphate over all of palestine (That means Israeli parts as well) and kill every jewish in it, so it got a "slight" problem in that department.
Damn, i don't know how i got dragged to this again.. i'll see myself out.
